Sorry guys getting dark now but pic of Defender now on Gallery, RRS to follow shortly. Spec is Privacy, Active Xenons, Bluetooth, and Overfinch Tigers. The ride is fine, I would not hesitate to recommend them, I was slightly concerned before taking delivery as the Cayenne had 20" Alloys and was very firm but the RRS is much more comfortable.

I know it's still a new car and the novelty hasn't yet worn off, but I'm doing a lot more miles a week in the Sport than I did in my RRTD6.......
I notice that others are doing relatively high miles as well - John has 1700 miles in 2 weeks and I have done 1100 in the same time............ normally I would do about 200 miles a week! Just loving driving it. And mine are all leisure miles, I don't use it for any work miles.................... don't work much, just play!

Hi everyone,

I am an RRS enthusiast and although I can't drive yet my Dad teaches me in the paddock in our Defender 90. We have a Java Black RRS which looks so cool on its 22" Tiger Overfinch alloys!  James

I have posted some photos of our Defender in the gallery, I will take some photos of the RRS tomorrow  James

Hi folks, I am from the other side, DISCO3. Just thought I would call in to say Hi. Well known to Martin and the DISCO3 site guys, but don't have a RRS (yet). Have a few Landy's, RR and D3 and just love the marque.

Photos are in the gallery now, spent all afternoon polishing it!!!  James

James that Defender looks far too clean and scratch free....................
Wouldn't you just love to get it dirty (and this is after a relatively "clean" weekend on the Scottish moors!)




and a clean Defender pic! taken on the top of the Corrieyarrick Pass in November 2004, it was only -19C and 10cm of snow......... and the TD6 failed to make it on it's road biased tyres and gave up about 100ft from here!

We do get the Defender dirty living in the country, but it's ready for work in the city tomorrow! James

Hello all,

Thought I would place my first post here after returning from our summer holidays in the states.
It was good to get back in my sport after the break and now its time to start putting some miles on the clock. Its out there somewhere. Second V10 Treg on the drive at the moment.

Thanks for that Bobby,
First day back at work yesterday, left one and a half hours late because of the amount of people that wanted a look. Now I am thinking of excuses to get out and about in the car during working hours, 300 miles on the clock so far and Im really glad I waited this thing is brilliant. Its out there somewhere.

I've been enjoying reading this board for months and learning from the experiences of those who've logged some miles behind the wheel of the RRS! Today I finally joined the ranks and picked up my new Tonga Green HSE with aspen interior, rear diff, PTI, and sat radio. Like many of you, I was holding out for Dynamic Response, but the dealer was pessimistic about getting it this Summer. So I caved -- but I'm pleased to have saved a *little* money! The dealer in Alexandria, VA, said the lack of DR in the non-supercharged versions related to limited output of the equipment supplier for the system.

I took the 60 mile return route home and made sure I "took the long way" over a small Blue Ridge mountain pass, and was made downright giddy by the performance and solidity of the vehicle (I think my daughter thinks I'm a little nuts now...). I burned some MP3s to CD before the trip and was impressed by the HK sound system, and was having reasonably good luck with the voice commmand system. I look forward to contributing more of my impressions in the future and "giving back" some of the value many of you have provided me.

Cheers -QM

Quasimoto,
Welcome to the forum.
Hope the car is everything you wanted, Youre right about the harmon kardon system I think the extra for the logic seven was a good buy, Its out there somewhere. Second V10 Treg on the drive at the moment.
