[Mr.OmegaMan]

...Do I find myself lusting over one of these all of a sudden 



Their relatively slow, no idea on handling but i'd imagine not much fun in the twisty welsh roads, thirsty, expensive to buy an maintain... Meh the urge will pass (hopefully)...

[Sir Tigger KC]

I can understand that particular itch, luckily (?) I havn't the cash to scratch it!     

[Vamps]

I found the Jeep quite terrible on country roads, and you are talking to a man who had a Renault 4 as a company car many years ago...............

Cant speak for modern Range Rovers, but older ones were terrible on the twisty bits........

[the alarming man]

still wallowey old boats...even more so if on air

Having been a passenger in two of Joshs' they're not bad to be a passenger in, and can easily keep up with most things Worlds apart from the Defender... (clearly no bad thing)

[Mr.OmegaMan]

I hear you there Tig I'd sooner afford a LS430 before one of these 

Good to know Vamps / Al 

Hmmm a supercharged one  Link although it's the 'Proper Range Rover' not as keen on this from the exterior view at least, Handling any worse / better on these over the Sport ?

[GastronomicKleptomaniac]

Full fat RR brilliant. RR Sport is uberchav.

[TheBoy]

I fancy a proper RR, not that Sport one.  The Sport has more in common with Disco than a proper RR.

They are a very nice place to be.

I've been lucky enough to drive a few of the ones he's had

I have this weird split personality with Range Rovers.  The petrol ones, particularly that supercharged one he had 2 or 3 years ago, I drove it like a man possessed, and had to distract young joshwyatt away from the car when I handed keys back, so the brakes could stop smoking before he looked.  Yet that TD6 one he briefly had, I was content just tootling around in it, like a model citizen. The other V8 petrols probably fit somewhere in between from a hooligan perspective.

I really fancy trying a TDV8 one.  Powerful enough to keep up, economical enough (when not hoofing it) to be viable for me. On paper anyway.

I wish you said that a week ago... two birds and all that...

To clarify, you could have had one on your drive

[alfie]

If you really want one,I can get a 10% discount,

[TheBoy]

If you really want one,I can get a 10% discount,

I think I can get good discount off a new one. But I want one for £7k or less

Another one with the 4x4 bug

I have this weird split personality with Range Rovers.  The petrol ones, particularly that supercharged one he had 2 or 3 years ago, I drove it like a man possessed, until I came across a bend and realised I was driving a water bed, so had to dump all the speed into the poor brakes.

Fixed for you. Well, my experience, at any rate.
