Overfinch has long been associated with doing mildly deranged things to Range Rovers, and its latest creation - a Range Rover designed in collaboration with gun makers Holland & Holland – is no exception.
The intention, says Overfinch, is to “create the ultimate all purpose, all season, luxury supercar for the discerning few”.
Outside there are some relatively discreet modifications, including mildly restyled bumpers, a rear spoiler and some mesh grille work, and you can choose one of four unique paint colours. Overfinch has also fitted 20-inch ‘Tiger’ alloys, although 22-inch versions are available for those more interested in ‘bling’ than driving into a field for a spot of huntin’, shootin’ and fishin’.
Inside is where the real work has gone, however. It apparently takes 150 hours to trim the cabin, which uses eight different leathers of a quality normally reserved for private jets as well a 31-piece wood veneer kit. There’s also a hand-made gun cabinet, and a unique four-seat layout, with a rear console with integrated refrigerator and Holland & Holland crystal ware.
Undoubted star of the show, however, is the self-replenishing drinks cabinet which comes with an allegedly never-diminishing supply of Pol Roger champagne, The Balvenie single malt whisky, Hendrick’s small-batch gin, Ivan the Terrible luxury vodka and Willow Spring Water from the Lake District (for the driver, presumably). Brings new meaning to the phrase ‘mobile gin palace’, doesn’t it?
Overfinch plans to make just 100 Holland & Holland Range Rovers a year, fitted with either the 3.6-litre TDV8, or the much more on-message 503bhp supercharged V8
“The result,” says Overfinch, “is a quintessentially English take on motoring luxury”. If you agree, it will cost you from £139,650 to get your hands on one.
