United Kingdom 2007 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Java Black
RRS capability in the snow

It's been a while since I last posed on the site. Been busy etc. Well, for the second time in the space of 12 months we have had atrocious weather up here in Scotland with major snowfall. My village is cut off to all but 4x4, tractor and quad owners. I have driven my trusty RRS on roads and tracks these last few days that are completely inaccessible to anything other than a great 4x4. I have rescued others, towed stranded cars and even had to use the hill decent once - and by god does it work. Makes me realise just how good our cars really are despite the occasional moan we all have about the odd knock here and there. Is there any other vehicle that comes close to the Land Rover family (RRS, Disco 4 FFRR)? I don't think so. After 3 and a bit years of ownership, I still love my RRS to bits. Marvelous. Thumbs Up If you see a bandwagon - it's too late.....

Java Black HSE TDV6 O7, alpaca, FF sunroof, adaptive Xenon headlights, SC grill, black privacy glass, clear indicators, tow-pack, colour-coded all black.Gone, but forever in my memory. Until my new one comes...
In the stables:Mercedes CLK 230K Cab W208; BMW 318d; VW Golf (LHD) 1.6 SE in Spain:New RRS to come soon...

We have a love/hate relationship with these machines. In the snow a bit more love than hate, when they go wrong a bit more hate than love. Mr. Green
