Spain 2006 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Java Black
Im so happy I could cry

Picked up my S/C this afternoon and been playing around with/in it eversince. Jesus christ what a machine Thumbs Up Thumbs Up . It seems to defy science when you put your foot down. The sound is fantastic, and it looks absolutely gorgeous (you know you love a car when you are constantly turning around for a peek after parking up).

So far Im still trying to figure out my best seating position, so many choices i cant seem to get it right. Figuring out the radio/cd player (doesnt display track name, not sure if it can). Also how to get the LR button to open the boot rather than the little tailgate.
By the way, its a spanish car and all the instructions are in Spanish, as I am the kind of person who usually sits and reads something like that cover to cover its quite frustrating. Wonder if I could order one in English.. hmm.

Anyway, just filled it up with the best (or better than standard) fuel i could find in a spanish petrol station from empty and it cost 88 euros (62 quid), how does that compare to the UK? Just Picked up: 2006 RRS S/C, java with Ivory.

Congrats Trixman - the seats do take a fair amount of changing before you find a comfy place but they're good once you're set! And don't forget to set the seat memory before the wife or girlfriend goes and changes it all Rolling Eyes

Yep, think Ive found the one now, and after going through the manual found a million other things I can tinker with (and drive the missus crazy with). I think my only problem Ive found is that the nav and controls are all in English, but the voice command is in bleedin Spanish. Its off to the dealer on Tuesday for a once-over (booked in by the company i bought it off, but I couldnt wait Whistle) so will ask if they can change it there.

Oh happy days. Just Picked up: 2006 RRS S/C, java with Ivory.
