It says they were all for Middle Eastern customers and they might not sell any of the vehicles even though they’re probably alright. I’d take a salvaged Rover from this boat especially if it has some special Dubai-esque modifications! ---

now that im working at the nations largest seaport (we get Mercedes/bmw/Toyota/Nissan and a few others that come through here) I heard stories of “roll on, roll off” ships being lost at sea because of rough conditions and shifting of the cargo. glad the crew is alright. ---

Yeah I saw this on the news the other night and they said he grounded the ship purposely to save it from sinking. Pretty good Captain, but the pictures are funny. Makes it look like a stupid mistake. ---

I’d just like to point out that last I checked it was 9 months for an base RR and 6 months for the V8 one… 9 fucking months. ---
