Hi All, new member joining from USA. Recently picked up a 2006 RRS Supercharged, Java Black. Previously owned a 2005 Disco 3 and a 2012 RR Evoque (wifey's car)

So far:

* Swapped sidemarkers to clear
* Swapped steering wheel to Nappa Leather (2009 style)
* Refinished all 4 wheels to Sparkle Silver (they were painted black by prior owner, and were in need of attention)
* Upgraded Navigation DVD to newest availalble
* Replaced all fluids (Front/Rear diff, transfer case, brake fluid, coolant)
* Replaced LCA bushings and control arm bushings

Welcome!

I too joined last month with a Blown RRS. Nice and tidy one you have  Evoque HSE Dynamic
5.0 Charger MY12

Thanks. It has 65K miles and is very clean inside and out. Just needed a little TLC. 2006 RRS Supercharged

This is so true. I saw a few RRS prior to purchasing this one, and they were just a mess inside and out.

I try to take good care of my vehicles. Looks like the prior owner(s) of this one did as well. Just needed a few maintenance items and cosmetic fixes.

Several co-workers and neighbors already commented that they thought it was brand new. Not bad for a vehicle nearly 10 years old.  2006 RRS Supercharged

Brilliant car the S/C...

Welcome to the pack...Jack  Carl

Great to see another one. RRS's seem to be a bit short on the ground over here in Australia.
Mine came with non std 22" Supercharged wheels . I have just obtained some 2015 wheels and tyres to fit for when I get out of suburbia.
The only other things I have done is add sidesteps(running boards) as some of my family are short. Plus I have recently installed a 7" Navman GPS in front of the existing GPS. The orginal does not have hardly any of the functions of a modern GPS and the maps were out of date.
Hope you enjoy yours as much as I am mine.

Nice looking Cracka

Surprised how well these things can take a corner, despite the weight and high center of gravity.

Still adjusting to the size. I've been driving MINIs primarily for the past 10 years.  2006 RRS Supercharged

Very nice example, JackMac. I enjoy my 2006 for 3 months now and (by your sig) you seem to have a similar taste (I loved my JCW).
In regards of what next - just colour-code the door handles, side sills and the gray rear hatch panel, the one with "Range Rover" lettering. Regards etc.,
