    Squarer like the defender wagon? With its useless cargo area due to its useless rear door!

    And if you don't look back at your car and admire it as you walk away - then you have the wrong car.

    An Aston Martin DB11 is slower than an equivalently priced Porsche, but to me the Aston Martin looks absolutely beautiful but the Porsche... no. I'd get the AM every time.
    I look back on my old Disco, definitely not a Porsche, or AM, scratched, dented, aged [ 410,000 kms] , and admire it.
    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking
