According to the article below SVO are planning a stripped out version of the SVR, not that keen on them stripping it out and putting a roll cage in it, kind of defeats the object of having the practicality of a Range Rover! However I'm very interested in the carbon Brakes coming out, can't see why they would need a new chassis just to fit Carbon Brakes though!

Are JLR planning a single model racing series possibly? Bit like the IPace has that supports Formula E race events? Or maybe a WRC entry and they need to sell a fixed number through the dealer network to compete? Maybe even a factory supported owners series like Aston Martin, Ferrari or Lamborghini do for wealthy enough owners?Or even doing a “Volvo T5” BTCC challenge with an unlikely SUV entry? 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Yeah ok it can do thousands of miles flat out.... try driving it around in the real world on roads full of potholes and see how it gets on.. and do these roads from a cold start and listen to all the trim rattles.

Seems odd that they are not offered when your F Type Jaguar with a 2 litre petrol engine can have them as a standard option..... albeit at a huge extra cost of something like £10k. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

They should be optional given the overall performance of the car and the weight...no brainier and was surprised when I ordered the car they weren’t offered. MY18 Range Rover Sport SVR (18' - current)

To be honest as its a LR and is very capable off road CCB would be all wrong as they could not handle excess water, mud or any sort of small stones all these things would ruin them straight away.

Exactly. The SVR is more than just a very quick road car. |

No. It sat in the garage 25 days a month so I traded it in for the SVR. SVR with a few bits from Urban and Glohh |
