You'll have a proper country car with a D3 with a tailgate you can sit on for elevensies on shoot days or a viewing platform for point to pointing or hunting, which was always a RRS's failing in many peoples' eyes not just JC DS3 TDV6 HSE

...which RRUK already has with his FFRR.

I know plenty of people who wouldn't buy a RRS because of that fact; it really depends on your lifestyle and hobbies. Probably seems madness if that isn't your world, but LR missed a trick with the Sport. You wouldn't be influence either way, but lots of sales went D3 or FFRR way because of it. DS3 TDV6 HSE

In that photo there are two P38 Range Rovers to the left, mine and yes a FFRR SC in silver. That was the offroad foray which wrecked my 2nd set of those 20" alloys! The same size rims on the FFRRSC didn't sustain a scratch! |

I agree....a split tailgate would be a worthy addition |

It's not just the tailgate which are useful though, the bonnet can also be a dining or drinks table... |

I'm not the only one!! NP it is very difficult to stand on the 3" ledge of a bumper and impossible to picnic properly. When you stand on the tailgate the top half is shut BTW DS3 TDV6 HSE
