Interesting commute

Post by Charles » Thu Jun 14, 2018 12:50 pm

Was sat behind a Gemballa Bi Turbo Cayenne yesterday afternoon on the roundabout at Junction 11 of the M4.

Then this morning, I followed an Overfinch Range Rover off the M4 at the same junction.

What is it about souped-up SUVs?

You should have been in Greece last summer...when I was on the motorway there and then this happened https://www.gumball3000.com/blog/riga-to-mykonos-2017

And I was driving my parents' humble BMW 316i E36....could not keep up with them....but at the last toll before Athens, they were pulled by 5 police cars and their crew... 8) :o :oops:

I recently saw a new model Range Rover Sport SVR hammering around a roundabout, made a lovely crackle and pop

There is a market for Performance SUV's, in work theyve put out a few X5 & X6M's
