United Kingdom 2012 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Orkney Grey

The funny thing is that, whilst it is touted as the progenitor of the RRS, it's obviously the progenitor of the Evoque as much as anything. Look at the over all shape - squashed like the Evoque, the line of the bonnet eyebrows over the front wheel just as it has on the Evoque from day 1. It's almost like someone looked at the Stormer and thought "that needs to be made smaller" and hey presto the Evoque was born.

It's also interesting to hear the designer talk about the Range Rover design DNA - the floating roof, for example, and then see that they have gone away from it with all-black roof and side pillars available on the entire RR range. So much for the DNA... Whistle 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed
