On Friday we ran a contest called “Here are 100 cars we owned and 1 is a Lie!” based on the awful Facebook “here are 10 bands I seen live and 1 is fake” thing that Bradley and Jeff just love. Despite the many comments, guesses and searches, no proper answer was provided over three days and nights. Therefore, sadly, there is no winner.
Without further ado, the one vehicle none of us owned is…
None of us owned the mighty Land Rover Discovery!
Land Rover vehicles have been written about extensively on this here website but despite that none of us has ever owned one. Jeff and I love most of the new and old big Landies. Bradley was impressed by the new Discovery. We have owned Jeeps, Isuzus, and Toyota 4x4s, but one one has ever owned a Land Rover Discovery, or any other Land Rover product. I have to admit that I was once close to buying a Defender 90. Jeff was eyeing a Disco before he pulled the trigger on the Benz, and I’m sure that are many other such examples.
Perhaps because we’re just too broke to buy new ones and too smart to buy old ones. Perhaps that despite their quickly deprecating values, none of was just brave enough to battle the potentially pricey issues. That’s a shame because buying a used Landy would create a lot of content for the site, especially if it was under CarMax warranty.
Here, once again, in alphabetical order, the list of the cars we did own and the name of the person who owned them. Thanks for playing!
