THE FUSE

Considering Icelanders still eat horse and puffin meat, it would be fair to assume they couldn’t give a monkey’s for political correctness either. After all, this is a country that went to war with Britain over cod fishing rights and still hunts whales. Yet on the road, Icelandic drivers must be some of the politest in the world, pulling over as a 4x4 bundles up behind them on a vast lava desert, sometimes even proffering a cheery wave. They’re either super-friendly, or fully aware that the Ineos Grenadier was gestated with very dubious steering.
