2013 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Autobiography Stornoway Grey

I've had a holding letter back from Landrover saying they will be replying soon however there was a delay in receiving my letter as they have moved address recently.

In the meanwhile I am contacting the chap at Top Gear Magazine who is running a SC with my thoughts and the story on the wheels so far. L319 D4 HSE

Well, a further 14 days have passed and I still have no reply from Landrover about my letter. If I don't get a response soon I shall start to go more public on it. L319 D4 HSE

I've been told by Mrs RRUK that there is a Landrover branded letter waiting for me at home when I get back from dull Dallas.

Looking forward to hearing what they are saying now. Will keep you posted next week. L319 D4 HSE

2006 Range Rover Sport 4.4 V8 HSE Bonatti Grey

I've done some pretty serious off roading with just the standard 19's and Conti's. Here's a picture after coming down a 3 diamond hill. HDC works like a charm, BTW.

You can see the dirt marks on the side walls come pretty close to the wheels. If I had the 20's, they would have been damaged for sure. I have a couple very small knicks if you look very closely, but not that noticable.

I don't know if you realise, Boaz but you have a small boy living in the back of your car! :shock:
