Mark [snapback]739606[/snapback] [/quote] why, yes, yes it was. And still is! [quote name='inanimate_object' date='Jul 18 2005, 04:53 PM']And we don't have domestics. Mark [snapback]739607[/snapback] [/quote] lol well, you know what I meant anyway. |
I suppose we could call Deloreans domestics, and there make those forklifts that stick to the back of lorry's here too https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

Cool, it's animated - that's the extent of our "domestics" Mark |
Moffett, we have some of those here, mostly on the back of brick hauling trucks.

[quote name='jhammons01' date='Jul 18 2005, 02:23 PM']Well, look at that new little ford....isn't that the same as a LR model?? I've been out of it for a quite a few years but there is one small LR that is the same as the ford little SUV... Kinda like a mercury and ford. Same car different badges. That relationship has existed for ford an LR for about 10 years.
[snapback]739538[/snapback] [/quote] [quote name='MotorTrend.com']One of today's Range Rover's major weaknesses is its outdated 4.0 and 4.6L V-8 engines. BMW fixed this by providing the smooth and powerful DOHC 4.4L V-8 and five-speed automatic transmission with manual shift mode (both available in the X5). Yes, a Ford-owned brand powered by a BMW engine--no bad thing. Despite being 485 lb heavier than the current version, the '03 should run 0-60 mph in about 9.0 sec--or 1.5 sec faster than the '02.[/quote] Linky So, it seems that they were powered by original Rover engines until '94, when BMW bought Land Rover From British AeroSpace. And Ford used BMW supplied engines all the way up to this past year with the introduction of the '06 model. As for the Freelander, it was introduced in '97, three years before Ford purchased Land Rover from BMW, so the lineage between the Freelander and the Escape is undetermined. I don't know. Has anyone heard that they're the same chassis, or do they just look so similar that people assume they are, snce they're from the same company? |

[snapback]739636[/snapback] [/quote] Well, I'm drooling, if that's what you were trying to ask. I haven't "drowled" in years. And, yeah, I like that movie prop POS, even with the PVC pipe and fake air tanks and cheap stick on diamond plate. Cuz I think it's sexy. I wouldn't pay for one like that, I would build one like the first pic I posted. There's one at Land Rover Las Vegas, but they're asking $40k for a '95, with semi high miles. If it was a '97 with under 40k miles, I'd be all over it. |

Hell, I can get on LRX.com and find one for half that, but Vegas car dealerships think that they're in a vacuum and can charge whatever they want for cars here.
