2008 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Rimini Red
Nurburgring

Popped in yesterday on my way back up from Lake Garda. Managed 4 laps before I felt sorry for the tyres.

First lap with DSC was a 9m58s, last lap of the day without DSC was a 9m33s.(it really is a killer when you're pushing on - and not needed, its a very very well balanced car for its size)

I have a few good videos with some very confused M3's being overtaken by 2.5t of 4x4.


Few pics from the Euro tour:

Impressive range that we almost achieved,





On the way to Stelvio,

Autobahn, damn limiter - remap should sort that.



Ring car park,

Had the cruise set between 66 and 70. My Average went south quickly once I started hitting unrestricted Autobahn on the way back up.

Havn't done the 'Ring yet but hope to soon. Stelvio is a great road, did you try the Swiss side too? Not as well kept as the Italian side but still a great drive.
