It was good fun, I think you can tell by the 'school boy' tone in my voice Driven the ring hundreds of times but passing M3's and Bikes in a Cerbera or E30 M3 doesn't feel quite as good as in two and a half tonne of Land Rovers finest.

Next trip is September and towing the M3 out this time, I don't think the Sport is going to escape a few laps though and with the JE remap it should have a little more oomph on the straights.

Don't suppose anyone else fancies the trip? RR Sport.co.uk outing to the Nurburgring? Would be a very cool convoy.

I appreciate that things on videos never sound quite the same as in real life, but please tell me somebody - why do most the motoring mags say there is unacceptable windnoise at speed in the TDv8 RRS? I don't get "unacceptable" windnoise in mine - I get a little around the A pillar by the mirror but I expect there to be some noise there (it isn't intrusive anyway) and I assume that Chris was doing speeds that would be highly illegal on the open road and I don't hear much wind noise inside his car. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

From Nurburg to Duseldorf on the A1 a fair bit is unrestricted and I sat on the speed limiter for most of the journey. Can't say I noticed anything above normal wind noise levels. I suppose if you have to find fault with a vehicle, thats not the worst thing you could make up.

I did find that above about 100mph though the ride got quite harsh.. I put it down to the 20's and the speed but I think the car lowers again at about that speed so whether that has something to do with it or not I don't know. Anyone else noticed similar?

The only wind noise in mine are the kids on the back seat and dogs in the boot. I guess the dealer won't be able to do anything about those either.  RRS TDv8 HSE Rimini

Some parts of the video, like down in to the Foxhole (first M3 we catch) are probably touching 120mph.

I think i'd be touching cloth instead!  Runner up - 2009 Best Avatar Award

It would appear my video is making its way around the internet quite nicely.

Even some 911 boys are a little impressed by the Sports performance.

Half tempted to sign up to the forums above and join in with the singing the sports praises.

Last week I was on Nurburgring for the first time and my time with RRS Supercharged is 11:40... I know, it is not good... but I was there for the first time. RANGE ROVER, MORE THAN A CAR, LESS THAN A KITKAT
