Hand-Controls ....
Pictured are the hand-controls I use to drive my RCZ Auto.
I have been a wheelchair user since the age of 16 (some 35 years ago), following a nasty road accident where my bicycle had a quarrel with another vehicle. Passing a parked car, the driver inadvertently opened his car door and knocked me into the path of an oncoming vehicle. Sometimes the silver-lining is really difficult to see (and you have to be searching really hard), but the oncoming vehicle happened to be a brand new Land Rover Defender leaving the factory at Solihull. Anything else would surely have killed me, but fortunately, the Land Rover had sufficient ground clearance to just give me a bit of a mauling. Nobody's fault really, just a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Anyway, following my impromptu inspection of the underside of Solihull's finest 4x4, happily I have found myself in the right place at the right time many times since. Currently, that is behind the wheel of my 2014 RCZ 1.6 THP GT Auto, purchased two months ago with just 7000 miles on the clock. Serviced three times in that time, the RCZ is 'as new' ..... Probably the best car I have ever driven, and in 35 years I have had a few (Jaguar XJ8, Jaguar S-type, BMW 3-series, Volvo V60, Mercedes CLA, Ford Focus CC, MGB, Vauxhall Calibra, ... quite a collection!). Perhaps unexpectedly, the RCZ is indeed my dream car.
Great to be part of an on-line community of fellow enthusiasts.
All the berry vest!
