United Kingdom 2010 Range Rover Sport Supercharged HSE Stornoway Grey

I'm 53 bought my first RRS 4 months ago 4.4 v8 petrol Ive had an x5 and 2 different model Jeep Grand Cherokee's
The RRS is the best car I have ever towed with
I tow a large twin axle caravan
I thought the x5 had good build quality but the RRS takes some beating

United Kingdom 2011 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 HSE Bali Blue

I bought mine when I was 30, because I was so fed up of our lass moaning that she wanted one.
I have grown to like it but I miss my old car






Although I have found many uses for the Rrs, been touring round through Europe, towing, getting wood and soon off roading,

I got mine when I was 37. Had done all the usual hot hatches in my youth and then 2 seater sports cars and then onto a 911. Had that for 12 years until I realised I was too old for a Porsche. Thought the RRS was a better idea and I love it.

36. Bought it because I kept seeing them hurtling past me on the motorway, and decided I'd like to see what that's all about Laughing Now I realise that's a sure fire way to get through a tank of fuel in a hurry!

Scotland 2010 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 SE Santorini Black

I was 40 when I bought mine. Basically had 4wd cars since '95 (roads cr4p up here, and safer in wet/snow) my partner in our company has had LR/RR for the same time, but I felt too young you go the whole hog, but when you reach 40 and your body starts creaking, you realise a nice lazy Auto with air suspension is just the ticket! Still have a few toys to keep the speed freak in me interested!

Mine is certainly no garage queen, as it gets used for towing/carrying bikes/trips to the dump etc. in fact the only thing stopping me from getting the new RRS is the lack of usable space in the boot and not being able to fold seats flat - I use it that way so much!

On that one Codfather.... the boot space is pathetic on the new RRS ... the opening is significantly

smaller than the old RRS due to the

sloping roof and the full size spare wheel.. add that to the non flat rear seats and i'd say the space is only

marginally better than your average hatchback..... Lucky it drives so beautifully... Shocked 2014.5 SDV6 AB Dynamic ... Fuji /Santorini Pan roof and 22's

For the money you can get soooooooooo much car. Im only spending £12,600, and im getting a £40-50k+ car thats 8 years old, all singing all dancing, Ivory Leather and a head turner..... And by Sunday il have tinted windows, 2012 headlight conversion and 2012 rear tail-lights.... £13k all in.....


So £12,600 + Rear Lamps + Front end conversion = £13k -- that's a lot of mods for £400
Please tell us more In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures
Gone - A couple of RRS, A couple of Disco's. However thinking of another Sport.

United Kingdom 2007 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Cairns Blue

Was 42 when I got my first Sport, having come from a Fullfat, at the time I only changed due to Fullfat not fitting in under office car park as well as being 3 yrs old. Three Sports later and at 52, back in a grownup car ( yea I hear you , old mans car 🔫) but in all fairness to the Barge, it hasnt needed anything other than rear caliper, pads and discs in 10k miles which puts the monthly visits to garage of last Sport in the spotlight. Having said that it will probably fall over now........ Big Cry 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀
TDV8 Sport HSE...... Gone. Loved it but it didn't love me!!
Now rolling in MY10 Fullfat TDV8 Vogue. Slammed it to go round corners🙈
Cruising daily #56 mph in a Volvo V8. 😱
Lots of other toys in the cupboard...😜

I was just 55 when I bought my first Sport, no regrets at all and 6 months in with no problems. I always wanted one but I waited until I had money for something not too old and the engine I wanted. I absolutely love the car and drive it at any opportunity.

England 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Java Black

I was 25 when I got my first RRS. Now 28 and an X6 later, I'm back in my 2nd RRS.

Bought mine on a whim after writing off my Q7 and after some initial teething problems, I fell in love with it and recently sold a much newer X6 just so I could be back in an RRS. Ideal vehicle for me as I use a wheelchair so getting in/out is great with the air suspension and lots of space in the back for my chair. LCFC. Receiver of threatening letters from Overfinch.

United Kingdom 2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 Autobiography Santorini Black

I was early 30s when I git my 1st full Fat, then went to sensible family cars for years.
At the age of 56 decided I wanted a Range Rover again and got my New Sport last year.
Loving the car.
I change cars every 3 years so as I am not a great lover of the RRS2, I think it might be a Full Fat next time. MY13.5 Autobiography, Santorini Black, Privacy Glass. Gone
Driving a milk float for now.
