Raptor. Easily. I've grown to really hate Range Rooneys here. They're more of a fashion statement than an off-road machine, plus there are idiots that buy the supercharged V8 models and think they're fast. Make me laugh.



I'll take the Lincoln Continental.

Range Rooney? TopGear quote fanatic! They only said that because the version they had was the previous model with LED's for headlights aranged in a circle. That's what got the 'Rooney' side of it. And you said that people who buy the supercharged V8, yes. I do kind of agree with you there but you can't deny the fact that the Range Rover can still get you from A to B even if the route in between is one of the toughest terrain a car could face. It can still go off road and is more capable than the old one. The only things about the new Range Rover which are hateful is the awful styling, on styling front get an Evoque. And that it has lost its roots of being more of a Chessure footballers run about in stead. Apart from that though its a brilliant car.

As a matter of fact, my uncle owns a Range Rover with a supercharged V8 and it goes like all hell. I've been in many Mercedes, BMW, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Ford, Porsche and even a Lamborghini and I can assure you that the RR's supercharged V8 is nothing to mess with. Maybe I liked it because it was in a really high car, so I could feel the power more, but I stand by my words.

Yeah, I do kind of get the superchared sport. For a piece of intimidating other motorists. Bring it, what else can beat it?

I agree. It is a capable off-roader which I admire. But it's the people who buy it and therefore the status it now gives you. I used to work at a solar energy company and the bosses had these cars. When it snowed one of them didn't even drive it to work, he walked and didn't realise that that was what it was built for, just says it all for me.

We've come up against supercharged RRs before. Not one of them could outrun the Lightning we have.
Anyway perhaps I worded the other post slightly wrong. I mean that the people who buy them think they're faster than fast cars when they aren't. They're quick for a 4x4/SUV but not much else.
 
Elan vs Z1: BMW, just for the doors.

RRS vs Raptor: I'll have the Range Rover for better overall comfort.

300C vs Lincoln: Lincoln is too big and too pointless, so it's Chrysler for me.

Terrible Fiat vs Rubbish Merc: I may as well have the A-Class.
 
I'll have the Fiat. The amount of head room in that! Plus, it just looks bigger and newer.
 
Fiat Doblo vs Mercedes-Benz A100 - I think I would have the Fiat since it seems more spacious.

Anyway, here's another one from me.

2000 Buick Regal GS, 2004 Dodge Stratus R/T, or 2002 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS?

Buick VS Dodge VS Chevy

I"ll have the Dodge looks Amazing and Unusual


Chrysler 300 VS Lincolin

Lincolin Because Look at it its just Stylish and Great for travelling in Long distances

Fiat VS merc


Neither

Range rover VS F150 Raptor

Raptor Because its an offroader while The Range Rover is not Except the 99 Model
 
2000 Buick Regal GS as long as its the supercharged one its the car to have.
240hp 3.8L S/C V6

Big time sleeper, its pretty much the same car as the Grand Prix GTP supercharged but lighter by about 200lbs.

Or

RollsRoyce Phantom vs RollsRoyce Phantom Copy Cat; The phantom, why would I take something that looks like a phantom when I can have the real one?

Think of it this way, would you rather have a Rolls-Royce, or a one of a kind Rolls-Royce that doesn't look like a Rolls.
 
other stuff vs. the BMW 525i,

The BMW obviously... I was given an E24 525i Tourer in lieu of a £500 debt, and it had about a quarter of a million miles on it... it was still pretty mcuh the best road trip car I had.
 
I'll take the BMW, since it looks and drives the best.

I'll also take the Phantom, since I prefer the way it looks to the Bismarck. The Bismarck seems like an elongated 300C, which I despise.

Why risk crashing an expensive car when you can walk? Unless he had winter tyres fitted, he's a sensible guy. A heavy Range Rover on wide, low-profile tyres is not the best choice for driving in snow.

Wat. A standard Range Rover would leave a Raptor stuck in the mud. Range Rovers are surprisingly capable, even on low profile tyres, and that's without getting into the huge disadvantages that the Raptors size puts it at, or how superior the Range Rover is in almost all areas that are important in off-roading (approach, departure, and break over angles, and so on). In summary, if you're a redneck, get a Raptor. If you're an off-roader, get a Rangie.
