Scotland 2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 Autobiography Firenze Red

Well at risk of sounding an old fart, I'll be glad when exhaust noise is clamped down. I'm not at all bothered about out of town, but in streets it can be extremely irritating when somebody puts the foot down just to get a loud burp.
The best thing to keep everybody happy would be to route the exhaust into the cabin so only the driver and passengers could enjoy the noise, I'd have no complaints then.... Very Happy 13MY Range Rover Sport Autobiography SDV6 - mine
14MY Range Rover Evoque Dynamic SD4 Black Pack - wife's
99MY Defender 90 TD5, Soft Top Conversion - my toy, and bairns favourite

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

It’s not just in town - I live in a small village with a main A road going straight through the middle and a gradient Dow hill going from west to east - local lads with ancient Honda Civic Type R and old style Toyota Supra Turbos hammer down the street and lift off the gas causing really loud bangs and farts on the over-run. Cherry-bomb Type exhausts. Added to the mixture too, often run late at night is really annoying. Long live the old farts! Thumbs Up 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Agree, modern turbo fours and psychotic bike engines are really annoying. If you are going to make a noise do it right, use one of these.



I live very rural so its not an issue here, I regret selling this everyday the sun shines.

Hmm i,m sure its just a matter of time as all these great sounding cars will be outlawed.

Even down in Monaco for the car show the other week they where impounding all the load cars which is ridiculous as they nearly all special and loud cars. SVR 2018 in Santorini Black.

United Kingdom 2013 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Adriatic Blue

I'm an old fart, and bloody love the sound of my SVR. Was looking at moving to a 2019 but decided to stay with my 2017 as the noise and growl is soooo much better.

Long live, V8's, petrol and noise.
