That's not actually stripped, that's just normal JLR build quality.........

As the ex-owner of 2 P38 Rangies, I pity anyone who steals one.

It's like being an identity thief who realises they've stolen the identity of the Elephant Man.

I was burgled once - they nicked one set of keys to my second P38, and the telly. The keys were found thrown away further down the road - they'd clearly decided carrying the TV away was less of a risk than nicking the RR to do it and risk breaking down 500 metres down the road.

I'm pretty sure thats not even a sport. Unless of course its a l320 but that seems like a weird car to do all of that to?

In Newtown Birmingham it is a sport they take very seriously.

Stolen from Newtown and found in Chelmsley Wood.
Someone’s brave stealing from Newtown.

That much effort and they couldn’t get the wheels off?

Have you seen the state of them? Curbed would be an understatement :-)

It looks like a RRS SVR to me.

The lighting is bad, but does that not have an SVR badge on the vertical pillar between the front/rear doors. A, B, C, D or E Pillar!?

As a non expert on the Marque and it's cars it does seem quite common to fit newer facelift parts to older Range Rovers to make them look like newer, more expensive ones. Ed did it on wheeler dealers so it must be true.

Brave driving to Chelmsley (lock yer car) Wood too. Amazed there was that much of it left. Droids must have had an off day.

B pillar, that bit would be covered by the doors, so I doubt it.
