😄😆 they were, even days at the garage, got to see other problem ridden Italian exotics 😋
So True! And Road Rage and Conditions also
Cadillac Escalades and Nissan Patrols trying to run you down
To be honest…
Even nowadays most cars don’t do well in extreme climates. Apart from the Japanese 🤷🏻♂️
Remember how German cars were considered nice toys for the city in summer back in the day when I was living in colder climates. And this characterization was not that mistaken. They were far from robust enough to risk getting stranded somewhere on the open road and then burning tires until help came 😉
I thought they had a Cult Following for the W140/GWagen like they have it for the Landcruiser and Patrol in the GCC
Indeed they do…
Likewise the Range Rover. But it’s either for the wife or for oneself as a summer city runabout. It’s appreciated for the nice leather, decent infotainment (that was some years ago) and for the style - not for anything to do with reliability. These cars weee seen a bit like Italian cars in Germany in the past - plenty of style and charisma but not something you would seriously contemplate a proper journey in.
I knew only one person there who did longer trips with a Range Rover but he always had a member of staff follow him in a second car 😁
So true 👍 a work Colleague excitedly jumped through hoops to get his only to have his heart broken...
When he would see his car's suspension drooped over in one corner or the other.
