I have to extend an appreciation for your point-of-view here. The UK has had so many more range choices, engine options, and unique vehicles to which we never had access in the US. That Lynx Eventer looks amazing, even for today's standards. We often get the basic version of the original, if we're lucky. Whenever I'm there, I pickup a "WhatCar?" Magazine, model-year overview of all vehicles available there, and I'm consumed for hours...
