Followed a new one of these along some fast b roads on Saturday evening. Its quite nippy. Had to give the TVR a few revs to keep up. What really surprised me though was how flat it cornered at speed. Amazing car. It really took me by surprise in a long and tight bumpy bend.
A lot of electronic / hydraulic / pneumatic trickery needed to achieve that level of stability. Could get quite wobbly as components degrade over the years. Traditional Range Rover gets into all sorts of strange contortions when approaching the limit on tarmac, best avoided.price from £95K!!
if I wanted that level of performance in a 4x4 I'd look at the Cayenne Turbo - because at the end of the day it's only a 'souped up' Range Rover Sport
the 5.0L Full Fat Supercharged is fast enough for most and far more luxurious than the Sport
hell, my 4.4 V8 L405 is pretty nimble at 0-60mph in 6.5 seconds - and I reckon it could well be faster?

bloody horrible - enough mesh to build a chicken enclosure!even Khan could probably improve on that?
Range Rovers are supposed to be about understated class - hence why many feel the 'Sport' should not carry the Range Rover badge - at least in the UK - in China etc they can call them what they want

Someone sounds jealous!
I think it looks stunning, but would be more than happy with the standard supercharged.
doubt it as I have a 4.4TD L405 - could have bought any 'Sport' or Autobiography Full Fat - just not my thingI think it looks stunning, but would be more than happy with the standard supercharged.
just remind me which Range Rover you own?
and talking of 'class' - animated 'smilies' show lack of said class

The guy posts his new toy and you are nothing short of rude. Given your previous car I wouldn't spout bs about class GC. I'm sure your RR is very good but not as good as my new S65 nuur nuur.
get your facts rightnobody posted about their new car?
previous car - you mean my L322 Range Rover?
sorry I did not understand what an S65 was - thought it might be a penile implant? - proves I was correct
