Richard Hammond's review in the Mirror

Only odd thing is him saying the Dynamic seats are not that comfortable...! I was incredibly comfortable on my Unleashed day test drive...

And pic is not of Dynamic body kit either... looks more like a Pure with a Lux pack.

Remember he is very, very small so he was probably lost in the RRE seats.... Laughing Very Happy

No, definitely a Prestige in the pic as has Atlas grille, side fenders and side sills. Also I felt a poor review from RH as he clearly does not watch his own show, when commenting on the Evoque's ride!

RE: Richard Hammond's review in the Mirror

Strange review...lacks content and just doesn't say anything...has he actually driven it??

Lazy journalism.

RE: Richard Hammond's review in the Mirror

Do Daily Mirror readers do words? I thought it's the pictures that were important for them...............

It does seem an odd review from a journalist who is well known as a fan of the marque

It does seem a very dumbed down review with little content... I guess for the target audience... I only found this with Google, I hasten to add!!! Laughing

The picture is obviously a library picture but as he was presumably driving a UK spec SI4 it will be a dynamic that he's tested. The green sure looks good though!

RE: Richard Hammond's review in the Mirror

RE: Richard Hammond's review in the Mirror

Believe it or not but Mr Hammond lives about 3 miles from me & this afternoon I left my house to get onto the M50 which is about 1 mile away & guess what was behind me! Yes a Lime Green Dynamic Coupe & it looked fantastic I must say a total head turner. Anyway I let the car go past me thinking it was Hammond in there but it was a big guy with a Land Rover jacket so my guess is he had just picked it back up from Mr Hammond this was about 2.45pm today.
