I love my other half dearly, however she has no interest in cars whatsoever. Tonight she got a lift home with a friends husband driving as some wine was taken (!). She told me he had one of those nice, 'Porsche Range Rover' things. :laughing: To be fair, it's quite an accurate description of a Cayenne LOL

    That's a lot more info than I used to get. When the Ex came in one night she told me her friend had just got a new car. So obviously I asked what it was. The reply was it was "a nice blue one" !!!!!!!!!!!!

    I never did find out what it was 🤣

    It is - often compared to a RR Sport. Also in fairness, quite a few of my male friends have no idea either - bit like me and current football scene, to be fair again.

    Can't generalise too much though. In the past, one of my girlfriends Dads owned a dealership (Morris/MG franchise so you can tell how long ago it was) and she certainly knew her cars!

    Sort of related? - saw a RR 4x4 last week... and no, RR doesn't stand for Range Rover!  If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes I wouldn't have believed it!

     

    Sorry - ought to add for any ladies reading this, it was a nice metallic black 😉

    Funnily enough, I've seen one recently too - and a Bentley Bentayga and Aston DBX. All horrible imo! Can't remember the colours!
