Why?

Import tax.

Plus i can't get my motocross bikes in a Land Rover.

Import tax isn't an option on Disco 2s. They stopped making them 22 years ago.

And even without import tax, a current Disco is a bit out of the price league of a cheapo Toyota. A new Disco Sport is 4.2 million. A tricked out Nippon pickup is 1.4 million at most. The price difference isn't due to import tax. Admit, you're too poor. But not too poor

Nothing to stop you buying Best of British Used. As a Brit, you know how to wield a set of spanners.

Plus plent of options to transport Motocross scooters with a Land Rover. Sounds like you are looking for an excuse not to support the British worker*, and instead fund Tokyo.

*British workers produce spare parts for these veritable beasts.

1.9 million for a mint classic Range Rover, with the 3.9 V8. These have rock solid mechanicals, growth in value is immense. Patriotic. Takes a man to drive them properly. Not spitting on the graves of British soldiers by buying Japanese.

That's understandable. Which is why I have a Tacoma.

But safety is about more than avoiding death from natural hazards. It also means asking whether we live under the shadow of nuclear weapons, cyberwarfare, terrorism, authoritarianism, economic shocks and other threats that barely existed, or existed on a far smaller scale, in 1926

Murders are down

Poverty are down

Hospitals are up

Vitamins are up

Drugs are up

Cars are safer

Bike helmets are better

Planes are safer

Water is cleaner

You lefties never research things or exercise common sense.

Instead of ranting, you should have a look at this map.

Most record-breaking temperature events occured in Northern Europe. The Southern part of Europe is used to high temperatures so modern buildings are more often equipped with aircon, and traditional housing has been designed to protect from heat for centuries.

It's completely different in more Northern parts of Europe. Housing has not been designed to protect from heat and most people have considered it was not worth investing in aircon to use it only a few weeks a year (usually when they are on holiday in Southern Europe).

Lucky them. Finally some nice pleasant weather to enjoy instead of freezing.

...Meanwhile It's Been Snowing In Parts Of North America...

Typical climate denier posting, no context, just something/anything, to toss against the wall, Puke.
Snowing in North America?! They call it a cold front, coming in off the Pacific. Snow at high elevation, rain and 66 to 62 F (19C to 16C) on the coast & low elevations.

Rain helped but, the west has had another low snowpack year. Add an El Nino year, & from May, fires from BC Canada to Mexico. 50,000 acres,18 houses, one dead in WA. state alone. The big fire is currently down in Utah, crossed into Colorado & 3 firefighters were killed in it in the last 24 hours.

Impressive night pics from Ouray in Colorado.
