What is your favourite bit about your RRS?

Put down your favourite bit about your RRS, you could put down your least favourite too.

And no saying your favourite part is that I don't have one

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 Autobiography Arctic Frost

Trouble is Cliff there are so many aspects of the RRS that i love it is difficult to pinpoint one in particular, i would say that the V8 engine is my favorite

The thing i hate about the car is the F G front end knock some of my Previous cars

The design of the RRS is tops for me. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
2009 Alaska TDV8 - Gone and much missed.

I think I could have written your reply for you Envoy

As an 'outsider' who has been on here for quite a while it is interesting to have seen lots of different faults come and go.
It looks like LR have pulled their socks up on the paintwork side as some owners earlier on had some shockers, general electronic faults have cleared up a lot too.

The TDV8 was always going to be a winner, it is a stunning engine.

Design was great for me too - and the cabin layout was the best of any car I've ever had (apart from the e/w switches being too far away). Worst was the fact that it went through tyres and brakes at a rate of knots. Luckily, I never had any problems with it.
