RANGE STORMER Another star of Detroit was Land Rover's remarkable Range Stormer concept. 'As a company we have never made a concept car before,' noted some bloke. 'But with a similar production model coming very soon, what better way to get people's hopes up than with something really cool that will make the showroom version look weak and disappointing� Oh bollocks'. Many observers noted that the three door Range Stormer had an obvious link back to the original Range Rover of 1970. In fact, the concept's influences are more unusual than that. 'The sides are a bit too high, the doors open at wonky angles and it's painted bright orange,' admitted a senior designer. 'I think we spent too long studying the Austin Allegro'. http://www.sniffpetrol.com/ There is also a very funny review of a new Jeep product but it is a bit "" harsh"" .. |

The use of the word "Allegro" was a misrepresentation. "Adagio" was more appropriate. I think that the styling is more akin to the Vangard and the Humber. |
