Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Whereas most off-roaders are ponderous, with breeze-block styling, the radical V-cross is lithe and sporty, the shape of off-roaders to come and much more sporty than a Toyota RAV4. Underpinning it are the utterly reliable mechanicals of an Isuzu Trooper V6, plus air conditioning, airbags and rear-mounted camera to help drivers reverse.
This may not be the only R-registered 1,000-km V-cross on offer by an importer, but at pounds 19,950 it is the cheapest by several thousand. It is on sale at Park Lane Limited (01420 544300).
