Overfinch Range Rover Sport launched
Leeds-based Overfinch is offering a new version of Land Rover's luxury SUV from £140,000
If you’re the sort of person who looks at a Range Rover Sport and thinks, hmmm, too discreet for me, Overfinch has launched just the car for you. The longstanding Land Rover aftermarket firm has created its take on the luxury SUV, which brings a long list of aesthetic changes both inside and out.
An Overfinch Sport gets more aggressive bumpers made from carbon fibre and featuring no shortage of new intakes and grilles. There’s also a larger roof spoiler - also made from carbon fibre - that comes with no claims for improved aerodynamic performance but should turn a few more heads on Kensington High Street. Oh, and there's a set of Overfinch wheels.
Inside, a similar transformation comes from the fitment of new seats that can be trimmed in a variety of colours, including the trainer-like scheme shown in the images. If you prefer your shapes six-sided, Leeds-based Overfinch also offers a hexagonal stitch pattern for the leather. Further options for the cabin include carbon fibre trim and sports seats for SVR models.
Unlike the extensively enhanced versions of older Land Rovers Overfinch has produced in its 45-year history, the company’s new Range Rover Sport gets no mechanical upgrades. This means all variants have factory-standard performance, headed by the SVR and its 575hp. There is, however, a new exhaust system with Bluetooth-controlled valves for, well, more noise.
Overfinch’s vast list of available options means that each car will differ from the others, so a starting price has little meaning here. But we’re told that the most basic Overfinch Sport would cost about £140,000, making the model almost £60k pricier than the standard entry car.
One of my former customers used to (probably still does) replace his FFRR every two years and ALWAYS always went Overfinch. Beautifully bespoke and I seem to recall he had a supercharged one when s/c wasn't that common.
I guess that's where the money is.

What if I owned 631 Ssangyong Rodiuses? Worth more and just as unexplained.
I know they’re a bit ‘footballer’ but I do like the unnecessary, over the top styling!
Overfinch at least seem to still be near the top of the 'bodykit a Range Rover' pile, but as others have said they're not really what they used to be - seems like they used re-engineer the cars, now it's more like accessorising.
I'm a big fan of Range Rovers, when they still look factory and understated. I think it's very easy to make them look trashy and footballer-y.
But there's clearly a market for it, so if people what to spend money that way then that's their call.
Overfinch used to be cool.
The original Overfinch went bust and the brand and assets were bought out of administration.
The focus then shifted from Chevy V8 transplants and lovely custom gun cabinets to being a Kahn competitor.
Ultimately JLR would love to put all these guys out of business and provide all the mods themselves via the options list and SVO.
I think thy have cracked down quite hard on some of these RR customers and now make them put “not associated with” statements on their websites.

Personally, I think it would be a shame to do this to an SVR anyway, and what's the point of doing it on lesser models?
Overfinch should just stick a supercharged 7litre V8 into it and be done with it.

That's the sort of thing I'd actually like to see - something to rival the likes of Alpina or Brabus, but using JLR products.
