An RR Sport is a Range Rover Sport

A lower sportier Range Rover

Good choice IMO

4.2 V8 Supercharged, 385 bhp, 0-60 7.2 seconds (might be a little slow to catch them up though!)

EDIT: Too slow!

Dunno why i'm pimping this thing think it looks horrid but still its an amazing machine.

ah range rover

not as fast as an evo / STI though :

RS6 however is a great suggestion. 0-60 is 4.5 seconds. Lot quicker than an STI.

And just looked up the cayenne S. 0-69 in 5 seconds in a 2 ton SUV. Yikes.

your not wrong there. amazing performance for something so big and heavy

Cayenne Turbo S for the win !

dont think plod will go for it though at 82 grand. a scooby / evo at 25 seems a much better buy lol

Overfinch Range Rover might've done the job, shame you can't get them now though.

You gonna read the thread or just post silly cars.

Perhaps they should have enzos or Ford GT's

Not entirely sure, I just remember seeing on the telly or reading on the web that they'd come to the end of their production run or something. Of course, I could be wrong :confused:

It would be a shame if that's true - they've been around for a long time!

Overfinch Australasia will be unveiling the full product range for both the Sport & and Range Rover senior in February 2006. Please contact Tom Graze of Overfinch Australasia for further details.

It would indeed. I remember seeing the test they did on Top Gear I think it was. They put it up against a Ford Focus of some kind, only they put a Focus on a trailer on the back of the Range Rover. It accelerated quicker to 100 (iirc) than the Focus even with the Focus on the trailer on the back!

Would the Bowler Wildcat be classed as too dear at 50k?
