My classic just died on me again. And the rust has gotten bad enough that I can't justify the repair.

Charles Spencer King was a hell of a designer though.

I'd like to say you're wrong... but.

Massive corrosion problems. They screwed up the paint prep and most of the imports just rusted away. Even the zinc plated tailgates rusted. Plus you have the galvanic corrosion where the aluminum meets the steel.

If only Rover had the money to do the engineering, and to build them right.

British cars are about as good as British humor.

Lincolns are far more reliable than Range Rovers have ever been.

Read the title and thought it was going to be about Liz Hurley for some reason. Will post her pics regardless.







I sincerely apologize for derailing this thread.

Yeah, Lincolns are dogshit.....but still infinitely more reliable than an 80s-90s Range Rover.

I'd also take this over a Range Rover from that era as well.
