Land Rover isn’t exactly known for building the most reliable cars, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t still cool, comfortable and incredibly capable. If you’re looking to spend over $1,000 a month leasing a luxury SUV, you can do a whole lot worse than a Range Rover. Unfortunately, as an enthusiast, you’re not actually allowed to drive a Range Rover because they’re only offered with automatic transmissions. Don’t despair, though, we come bearing great news. Land Rover actually does still sell a car with a manual transmission.

There are, of course, going to be some downsides. For starters, you’ll have to leave the U.S. You don’t mind moving to the UK, do you? Sure, they’re pretty hostile toward immigrants these days, and the economy is failing, but on the plus side, their language is close enough to English that you shouldn’t have too many problems communicating with the locals. It’ll take some time to adjust, but surely, it’ll be worth it to get a three-pedal Land Rover, right?
