Mart872uk Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Could be an early model Toyota Rav 4 . Sorry but it’s a long way away . Just say small SUV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Harrison Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Spot on, excellent, the details of the roof bars, the wheels, everything, and I've never even heard of it before, second picture really nails it: https://www.carsguide.com.au/car-reviews/2014-ssangyong-rexton-review-29124 Monthly Distant Car Challenge anyone?

Ambrosiniv Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Difficult to say, but it looks like a Honda CR-V https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&biw=1920&bih=944&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=6tzAXKSzBuuj1fAP0cup4Ag&q=honda+crv+profile&oq=honda+crv&gs_l=img.1.0.35i39j0i67j0l2j0i67j0l5.2380.2380..3870...0.0..0.61.61.1......1....1..gws-wiz-img.U1Jz3XQEzxI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Standfast Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I looked at the Iceland car hire website lagooncarrentals. Renault and Dacia have similar 5 spoke wheels, a few more hours searching will solve the puzzle, off you go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Harrison Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Without the benefit of getting in closer it looks very like this Toyota Land Cruiser: https://www.toyota-europe.com/new-cars/land-cruiser/ Hope someone finds it soon, I've started to look out for it every time I go out.

Mart872uk Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Might be a Renault K— something ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacecadet Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I think I'd want to identify it if I could. I've certainly tagged more incidental vehicles than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DouglasFord Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 It has been said before I would like to be able to zoom in on the vehicle, but my guess is it's a Lexis possibly a GTX 460. Try a web site "Auto Trader" and search for a few brands of SUV's, that might help with the basic shape of the vehicle and give you a "best guess".

Inchiquin Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I would question whether it's necessary on this pic. Anyone searching for that model of car isn't going to be looking for a tiny unrecognisable shot of it in the distance, so it's more likely to hurt your CTR than get a sale. The picture will sell on impact rather than detail. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sultanpepa Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Too small to be sure but if pressed I'd guess at a Toyota RAV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacecadet Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I think we're going to need a 100% crop to be able to make it out. When I say "we", I mean not me. I stopped being able to identify new cars sometime between the Sweeney and Target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you knew the registration number there are sevaral free websites that will reveal some basic information such as make and year. I use "is my car taxed", a uk gov site. Now if this were a cop show, somone would shout "Enhance that picture.." and the techy would make the car bigger and rotate it by 90 degrees... James Alas, this was in Iceland and the car was moving at a fair lick, so no further information possible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
