Centrepin Posted July 23, 2021 Report Share Posted July 23, 2021 Sold the Range Rover and the next vehicle's not ready till October 😩 Bought a temporary car to take the grandkids on holiday and as a shooting vehicle. I forsee some walking in my future with absolute minimum kit🤣 Unless I can persuade my son to swap me this he collected yesterday 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTaylor91 Posted July 23, 2021 Report Share Posted July 23, 2021 Used to have one of those as company pool car and it was mega comfy. What do you have on the way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centrepin Posted July 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) I've ordered a Toyota RAV4 4x4 hybrid, self charging electric and 2.5 petrol. Plenty of room for my gear plus it'll tow my caravan. I can get in and out easier and so can my wife. Plus the bonus of not having to maintain or repair for 5 years. Unless I'm towing or go above 30mph it's totally electric so free fuel. It's actually quite comfortable, the Pug that is, but I feel so low down on the road after the Range Rover 🤣 It's remarkably nippy too, in comparison of course Edited July 23, 2021 by Centrepin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTaylor91 Posted July 23, 2021 Report Share Posted July 23, 2021 That will be smashing, we were looking at the RAV4 before we got a deal on the Range Rover. If you’re ever at a loose end a want a chauffeur to take you shooting before it arrives I would be happy to don the driving gloves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalkedUp Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 I thought you were selling the Range Rover because you didn’t get out shooting as much anymore? Caveat emptor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caveat emptor. No, it's because I couldn't get out shooting as much in it. Too much vehicle for what I want when I'm not well. My legs are bad and I have to stretch/climb to get into it. The RAV I can put my butt on the seat and slide my legs in. The Pug, unfortunately I almost fall into and bang my noggin as its so low. But its only temporary till October. I needed to sell the Range Rover to make the deposit on the RAV. What I said about selling was true, except I needed to make the deposit now and who states that up front if you don't want knocking down a grand or more.😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
