2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 SE Arctic Frost

Heated Steering wheel

I was in a FFRR Supercharged last night / this morning. The heated steering wheel was fantastic. I always thought it would be one of those silly little add ons that never gets used, but boy o boy did it come in usefull this morning.

The old pinkies definately noticed the difference when I got back into my own motor later in the day. Arctic Frost TDV6 SE. Aspen Leather, Cherry Wood, Privacy Glass, PTI, Tow Pack, Mudflaps, Tasmods, a new Fuelflap, a RRSport.co.uk umbrella in the boot & a RRSport.co.uk sticker on the rear glass.

Ref - split tailgat v RRS

The RRS lower full open boot space is much easire for our Labradors to get into

But then how many times have I hit my head on the RRS boot lid when it hasn't raised fully

You'll need to have your gas struts replaced - happens when they get old

2013 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Autobiography Stornoway Grey

plus, all gas struts work less well in cold weather.

Oh and another minor point that the FFRR gets: You can close the top tailgate with the nice interior moulded handle, instead of the exterior (and therefore dirty) one on the Sport.AND, you don't have to slam either of the tailgates...

Also, the PTI cradle is in a place where you can actually get to it whilst driving! Face up in the cubby box top lid instead or actually IN the cubby lid upside down.

I could also get one of the roller cargo nets that acts like a dog gaurd (If I ever needed to), better than having a permanent metal prison at the back of the car.

Don't get me wrong, I am not slagging the Sport off cos I love it, but there ARE lots of nicer things on the full size big brother. L319 D4 HSE

I still think the FFRR is the real deal, but each to their own, some people even buy BMWs you know

As far as Fl2 is concerned, I drove an i6 HSE the other day (£36K) and it goes like stink, I'd be very interested to see one in direct comparison with a SC, has a nice exhaust note too.

RRUK - sounds good - remember the 07MY has a soft close boot too - no slamming required
