We have names for all of our vehicles, but the Range rover has always been called the range rover or the rangie, despite it actually having a name.
I should have sided with Shane and called it the ****box as well.
or money pit.
sow's ear.
or Rear Admiral, because there's always some kind of sooty **** coming from it's tailpipe.
Roads?.. Where we're going, we don't need roads...
I call our Defender the 'big white box'.
Our Discovery is called the 'Discovery'
But if its just emptied our pockets, for some reason,it seems to be called the '****box' for a while.

Trucks? Another annoying Americanism that has infiltrated our lexicon. Trucks are those big things with heaps of wheels that carry goods and stuff. Like DaveD2 drives. We drive cars or Landies or Rangies but we're not driving trucks. So there! That's my grump for the day!
Happy New Year everyone.

A surprising number of people on LR fora, spell "Vogue" as "Vouge". Hell's Bells, it's spelled correctly on the car!

I still can't work out how an Epoke ever became a Range Rover.
I know it is part of LR's marketing strategy,but it actually drags the RR,FFRR,RRS or Rangie name down.
