2011 Range Rover Sport TDV8 Autobiography Stornoway Grey

How does it compare to the RR?

Not my cup of tea but a nice car all the same. Hope you enjoy it

2010 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 HSE Santorini Black

My sister has one and they are nice but I kinda feel why buy a 4x4 looking car, either get a 4x4 or get a saloon.

Horses for courses i suppose

Having had 2 RRSs over 4 years...........

Imho.....this is better. Very comfortable and quiet. 3.0 tdi engine and 7 speed tiptronic gear box is just magic......a hell of a lot quicker (0-60 in 6.5 secs) and the gear changes cannot be felt. Loads of power on tap and I can change the suspension, steering and the engine to dynamic/auto/comfort/custom at the touch of a button. Better mpg, cheaper tax and cheaper insurance.

On the tech front I'm afraid LR have been left way behind Got B&O sound system with DAB. Full iPod control. Full control of my iphone by bluetooth. No green display in this car.

The tow bar is fitted permanently and hidden behind the valance. I can extend the boot by sliding the back seats individually forward. The panoramic sunroof is very nice.

Ok it will not go off road to the same extreme as a LR but I never went off road in my LR's. If i wanted to do that I'd buy an old Defender to play in and not have to worry about the damage. TDV6 - gone

I have bought a Quattro 4x4. In fact it will be more 4x4 than the new 2 wheel drive LR Evocque

Had one of these whilst my white wonder was in for Bang and Olufsen known "quality issues".............wasn't bad at all, the only downside of course was it felt just like my car but raised by a few inches and (for me) it had zero presence.

I put it on par with the Freelander comparative wise, a good car, but somehow underwhelming in comparison to a Range Rover.

Sounds like you have ut very nicely spec and it will be exactly what you was after, I have seen only a few on the roads round me, thats maybe as WW says no presence to stand out from the crowd

As long as your happy
