Super smooth ride plus with that overhang the self leveling suspension would be great. BBC use them all the time on top gear with a camera man sat in the boot with the tailgate open. |

Me too, I'm always looking for the sneaky shot of a FFRR. |

and the FFRR looks way better than the new CLS too. Especially round the back door and boot the new CLS looks even clumsier than the last version 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes |

It was a toss up between a CLS or the FFRR for me when I bought mine, sorry Tim, I really like CLS both old and new |

I also spotted the FFRR camera car on the Jaguar XJ supercharged trip from Lands End to Lowestoft on Top Gear on Sunday. I bet the camera crew were just as comfortable, managed the same average speed oh used less fuel..........!

I owned a 57 plate CLS from new after switching from many BMW's, I liked the quirkiness of the styling and fancied a brand change. Within 3 months I didn't like the quikiness and although it was an accomplished drive, good engine and gearbox it wasn't an involved drive, so I sold it and bought a BMW. I now have a Range Rover an couldn't be happier. You made the right choice. Current MY2020 Gone: 1 x L405 and 2 x L322's |

According to the latest Top Gear Mag Clarkson's FFRR TDv8 is so sick that he might have to replace it.......... but he hates the post 2010 cars as he says they are too bling. Apparently his TDv8 has sickness of the suspension system that his dealer cannot find the cause of............ 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes |
