United Kingdom 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Cairns Blue
Getting RRS on Saturday

Collecting our first Range Rover on Saturday - really looking forward to it.

It's an 06 HSE, in Cairns Blue.

Got it for a good price (I think).

Going from the Honda S2000 i've driven 30,000 miles over the last 18 months, this should be a bit different!

Photos will follow.....

Added: Forgot to say.... Thanks to Kam for your help - feels funny getting that much money from somebody I haven't even spoken to!

It won't be as manic as your Honda and should hold the road a bit better in the wet as well, and it will feel odd having all that space out the back! Enjoy her! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Another S2000 convertee here too! Although sold mine a while ago. Think you'll find the RRS a rather different drive though!! Just remember you don't need to rev the nuts off it to have the most fun! Enjoy.

Interesting to note how many folks have gone to an RRS from something completely unrelated... there have been a few M3s, S2000s... a Mini now evidently Thumbs Up

Well to be honest I had a Mercedes C untill April, sold it, got the MINI Cabrio for the summer with the idea to give it my wife afterwards.

It took me a while to find my next car, it finally became the RRS Cool

So now Mini Cab + RRS on the parking, best of both worlds Cool 08.5 RRS TDV6 HSE Java Black/Alpaga - Cold Climate Pack - Privacy Glass - Bluetooth - Sunroof - 20" wheels - Rubber Floor mats.

United Kingdom 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Cairns Blue

I have a query about our new car that I'm sure somebody can answer:

The car is an 06 HSE (registered Jan 06). It has all the toys I expected of the HSE.

The one thing it doesn't have is any phone kit installed. Was this an option when the car was new?

Thanks

Jamie

According to both my June 2005 and January 2006 price lists PTi was an optional extra at £350 even on the 2.7 HSE. It was only a standard feature on the S/C 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
