Remains to be seen if at least 33” or maybe 34” could be fitted without modifications.
I guess 35” is out of the equation altogether. |

Starting price in my country for 110 Base model is about €75k including VAT.
Since I can deduct VAT for the vehicle for “business purposes” so it would cost me €60k. Or around £55k.

More like safety-jokes lobotomy.
Seriously, I would have loved if they didn’t change anything except make it more safe (and posssibly a tad bit more comfortable). Some airbags, st ... |

S60 from 2003, has about 400.000 km. Then XC90 from 2008. with 550.000km on it and XC90 from ... |

Sorry if this question has been already answered elsewhere. They claim that new Defender is going to score 5 star on NCAP rating?
