I know I once read about Stevie Wonder in a tour bus and he was the most polite and interesting man. He said to the driver "Would you like me to take the wheel for a bit?" so he has a great sense of humour.

The delight continues in the cabin, with glistening switches and dials from pricier Range Rover models and beautifully upholstered and supportive seats in the front which, with the adjustable steering column, give a perfect driving position.

Look farther down in the cabin, however, and the cost accountant’s hand is just visible as plastic quality drops off.
