Saw an F Type cruising down the A1, that's a pretty car, very classic British sportscar shape.

ML350 if you are getting out of contracting and into drug dealing.
Between the other 3, what are your actual requirements? Do you live up a dirt track? Do you regularly tow a horse box? etc.

The two most reliable cars I have owned were Alfas. Excluding a French car, the least reliable (up until last year) was German.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Drug dealing (allegedly), lugging DJ gear about and peeing off my neighbour who hates 4x4s. Potential towing of caravan in the future. No horses, poor horse wouldn't cope with the wife. Although a horse box to tow the wife? Hadn't considered that. Probably just write off a Saturday at some point and test drive them.Originally posted by WTFH View PostML350 if you are getting out of contracting and into drug dealing.

An A6 will carry more than the Range Rover/Lexus/Q7, but won't be as offensive to your neighbour. Also, if you get the Allroad sport, it will handle softroading while going reasonably well on road.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

OK, based on your requirements, Land Rover 110 with 25" low profile tyres, spinners, a snorkel and side pipes.
Not only will you offend your neighbour, but you'll offend people who don't live in Chelsea as well.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

ML63 if I'm going down the petrol 4x4 route. Can upset the neighbour with a 4x4 and have the Corsa scrotes suicidal that they can't beat a 4x4 off at the lights.Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostML420 is what you want.
