Hi,

Thought I should introduce myself, I've been stalking the boards for a couple of days trying to get an idea of what's going on and researching the RRS.

Anyway as a result, I'm looking forward to picking up a 2009-2010 RRS on Saturday morning, - Santorini Black HSE :



I'll probably do no mods to it, I'm going to drive it and enjoy it - however I've said this before on other cars and ended up doing something.

Had a FreeLander 2 HST and always swore it was the best car I'd owned.. unfortunately had to sell when the recession hit

and now back to prove myself wrong with a sport.

Anyways, How Do..

Hi and welcome, enjoy this great forum and enjoy driving your new motor.

Hello and welcome

The Freelander2 is a fab car...until you spend time in a Sport  2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Welcome

Had an FL2 as a loan car last week, you are seriously going to enjoy your new motor. Enjoy  Stu

hi and welcome ,you are in for a GREAT weekend

Welcome! I'm a current FL2 owner, it has been the best car I have ever owned and has suffered no mechanical problems for the time I have owned it. I was ready to place an order for a new one, but after a test drive in the new RRS I was hooked!

Hopefully your new Sport will be troublefree!  Arrived: MY16 A/B SDV6 in Aruba, Ivory interior, piano black trim, black panoramic roof, spare wheel, blind spot monitoring, mudlaps and more...

Gone but not forgotten:
2014 RRS2 SDV6 HSE in Loire Blue
2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE in Santorini Black

Looks like a lovely car Jolly Bodgup.

It shouldn't need modding. At least live with it for a while until you decide whether to butcher it or not

I am not keen on mods myself, just in case anyone didn't know! Gone - 2008 Stornoway Grey RRS 2.7 TDV6

welcome. Just a few subtle changes make all the difference.  RANGE ROVER SPORT 2008
White is the new Black

Hi JB, welcome to the site When i saw your username i thought oh no, not another one But then it was a great releaf to read your intro.
I'm sure you will enjoy your new sport just like the rest of us do, except BKHK, because he doesn't own one. But we don't mind him hanging around with us.

Haha, no, not to worry. The name/handle comes from my obsession with classic VW's and decided carried the name on





Thanks for the warm welcome guys. I'll post some photo's in the My Range Rover section when I pick it up all shiny and clean (and in daylight).

Actually Ady, I dream of owning another one (as a second car) because I genuinely like them lots. I do enjoy the banter with you guys as well

But I am not an "off road" person, I live in a place where it never gets below 15 degrees in the daytime (44 degrees C forecast tomorrow, yuk) and Mrs BKHK loves her Mini so I can't persuade her to have an RRS.

I had always wanted an X6, it goes like hell and around corners like a 2.5 tonne go kart. We have pathetic speed limits here so a bit of a hoon around town is about as good as it gets, it makes me grin.

I will try to work on Mrs BKHK to tell her she needs an RRS..... Gone - 2008 Stornoway Grey RRS 2.7 TDV6
