2011 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 HSE Santorini Black

I bailed out in April after 11 years of ownership of a Discovery and 2 Sports.
Would have one again in a heartbeat if costs weren't an issue it just became ridiculous.
Estimated saving per annum including income tax in the region of £10K.
I will probably struggle if we get deep snow next winter so fingers crossed for another mild one.
Really enjoying having acceleration,handling and 45mpg,seats are firmer as you noticed on your Audi test drive but very supportive and starting to get used to them.

You've pretty much summarised my thoughts there Chris.

It's definitely a sensible option, I'm just hoping the car has the 'soul' that the RRS seems to have. FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy

I still pop in most days Ady,would have loved a new style one but unfortunately the costs of running an HSE Dynamic as a company car just didn't stack up,I was gutted when the SE was deleted. MY2011 HSE Santorini/Ivory/Piano Black/Privacy Glass/TV .Sadly gone.

Unbelievable service from the BMW dealers, Williams in Liverpool. Absolutely fantastic. Met all my many demands, including 4 new tyres, free first MOT (not due for 2 years 9 months lol) and even offered to send out for sarnies. Wake up LR dealers…….

The car has exceeded my expectations in the few hours Ive had it. Superb quality interior, 8 speed auto gearbox is psychic, great ride quality, even on run flats and seamless iPod streaming through a super Harmon Kardon system. I have to say the tech is light years ahead of my old RRS. FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy

2009 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Fantastic motor Bradders, I must admit I am very impressed with BMW, the wife has a 320i and since selling my RRS I have bought a 'pocket rocket' 116i sport. Obviously a lot smaller than the RRS but fantastic quality and can't fault the buying experience 2019 BMW X3 2.0i M Sport in metalic black- Brilliant
2014 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Atlantic Grey, replaced with 2018 Frost White Outlander PHEV, can't fault em - now gone
2012 SDV6 HSE in Orkney Grey, Privacy Glass & Side Steps (notice a theme)! - Even better but now gone
2009 TDV6 HSE in Stornoway Grey, 20" alloys, Privacy Glass & Side Steps - Fantastic! but gone
