What would you buy a FRR or the new Bentley 4x4 ? I have always said that if I won the lottery I would get a FFRR with all the bells but in the back of my mind I would be wondering if it rattled , squeaked or even break down , on the other hand you know the Bentley is going to be perfect . Do it now ! Your a long time dead !!

Bentley has a worse reliability record than LR but it is kept very quiet, now people are paying that sort of money for FFRR's they will also become "reliable" until they drop to £50K or less and no longer serviced by LR dealers  my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis
2012 HSE SD4 In Orkney Grey now gone, best car ever.

They still dent the same with a rogue Tesco trolley and if youve spent 150 grand on your car its most annoying believe me.
A 10 year old builders truck is best sometimes as they can squeeze into a space you never thought a MINI would even get into.

+1 for the builders truck

Having just had a short on and off road experience in a new Range Rover it has just confirmed that it is my ideal car. The suspension, interior, performance and overall feeling of superiority are magnificent. I love them! Ours - 2008 Stornoway Grey HSE Auto
Tricia's - 2006 Royal Blue Beetle Cabriolet Auto
Mine - 2014 Vespa GTS 300 Super Sport Matt Black

Personally, I could afford to spend a lot more but I wouldn't pay more than £25k for any car. It's just a consumer durable and subject to massive depreciation. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

Didn't someone once say that cars like Rolls Royces and Bentleys are not about driving and motoring at all? They are all about arriving somewhere and the impression it makes. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

I'd keep my FL2 and spend the £150K on high class call girls!!
As some one has already said
Do it now. you,re a long time dead.

Mind you, at 74 years old I doubt that I'd manage to spend the whole £150K. 11 GS Bali Blue
07 GS FL2. Usually muddy. Gone
Numerous LRs since 1963

Id buy a 2nd hand Evoque, a 2nd hand F Type convertible and blow the rest on pointless luxurys

No contest...

I wouldn't spend that much money on a car unless I actually had a lot more than that available, but if I did, I think I'd also be asking them to do me a 5.0 SC without the poncey AB stuff.

Range Rover just looks right. I make no apologies for the fact that I really like 4-wheel drive cars. I like the rugged looks of off-roaders (I love the look of the Defender) and I like the high seating position. I don't want my 4*4 to look like an ordinary car and I certainly don't want the driving position to mimic that of an ordinary car. I like to be different. Ours - 2008 Stornoway Grey HSE Auto

A FFRR is on my list of LRs to own before I kick the bucket. So if I had £150k, then I wouldn't even consider anything else. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200
