I thought is was a video to prove the rear view mirrors are so strong you can hang a bag full of expensive clothing off them at speed laugh2

Absolutely -- and that beach bag has a mind of its own, and moves from the passenger seat to the passenger-side to the driver's-side (check-out the water's edge sequence at 0:47). At least in that colour you wouldn't lose it if it fell off....

It's a pity they didn't make him wear a seatbelt doh he might just be following the bag up the road otherwise being similarly untethered.

Despite whizzing around the Welsh countryside in the video, it is left-hand drive (to appeal, I presume, to the American and European market).
I thought that importing a LHD car into NZ isn't recommended if you want to avoid the cost of conversion to RHD. Or is is classified as a "Special Interest Vehicle" ?

In some of the road sequences it is fitted with a trade plate (E3644, just visible at 0:14, but not at 0:17), but no plate on the beach. Would that make a difference ?

No, I think he'd still be scraping skin and bone off the road..

You are right LOTW it would qualify as a Special interest vehicle, and generally importing left hookers is a pain, perhaps it would be just the thing for nipping down to the restaurant on Mustique

Darn it, so much for my syntax ! Did you hear about Santa's little brother who refused to speak well, punctuate properly, or use proper syntax ? He's the insubordinate Claus.

The company seem to be promoting this car as an off-road vehicle -note all the beach videos and the NZ style gravel roads, I guess pictures of it going down the M1 sandwiched between two Trans Europe juggernauts are not quite so romantic....
