I've been wanting one for AGES, but I'm still concerned about the MPG or more like GPM... Lovely cars, but I wouldn't buy one here, they're WAY overpriced in Aberdeen.

Less.

Different is all I can say

aberdeen should be cheaper too there are so many of the fuckers!

LPG all the way!

you're right to worry though my mate is doing HORRENDOUS mpg. Single figures really when booting it. thats shocking!
towing a caravan it thirstier than his mates arctic towing a full load

Yeah i considered an X5 too, thats what the Mrs wants. Just being too sensible at the moment after the wedding etc, that's why I haven't done anything about it yet.... I know I don't NEED it, as there's just the two of us, where as you guys obviously do. But I don't know how much longer I can keep driving small cars all the time.

Now that's nice!!!!!!!
There's a silver Kahn design one going about local to me aswell, it's serioulsy low, but they're about 70G's!

Lambchop

iTrader: (1)

i've seen 2 or 3 different silver khan rr's about! v nice but pricey too

doctor stavros

yuk! not a bad price though

neal666

that is stunning

iTrader: (2)

Yeah that's what happens aint it, mind you, that's been a while now aint it????
If i turned up with an R32 of a focus she'd be ok with it, but if it was a RR i'd probably have to sleep in it.

Don't see why you shouldn't buy a focus TBH, they're reasonaly priced now. I would consider one on the register, providing it had just been a bump, or lock damage, you get it cheap and sell it cheap, makes no odds to me.

iTrader: (1)

maxo been here 2yrs now!

yeah buy cheap and sell cheap. guessing if i get nice price then it wont "depreciate" like the 9-10k cars and not lose as much...

Nice! There's a dark matt green one round my way, looks awesome

what would you say is high mileage for a range rover sport? 4.2 supercharge one! like i see them with 60k on the clock and think hmmmm thats too high to consider buying but in reality is it?

RichieST

iTrader: (2)

60k of beating it up and down mountains and across muddy fields is a lot, but for pootling round chelsea, its barely run in!

philc

Thats a genuine Landrover colour from the G4 challenge!

RR Sports came in a really odd Metallic Orange ltd edition when new.



On a related note anyone seen the RR Sport Cosworth 300?



Hideous. So typical of Kahn "improvements"

mcst

It's Tangiers Orange. Factory limited edition and you could buy all the toys to make it like the proper G4 challenge vehicles. Winch, roof rack etc......

Needs the standard wheels putting on it and aggressive tyres at least.

Tell me more Lamb,when the escort goes this is on my list of possibles,consumption,drivability,reliability,smoo thness,had my cousins Rangey for a weekend once and I thought it was anything but smooth,same problems with X5`s?

Lambchop

I LOVE my x5! Seriously cool car to cruise about in and i couldnt give a shit about the comments of "needing" a 4x4 etc etc

Its my wifes car daily and its great for 3 kids and a dog! Plenty space and comfort.

Ours is a 3l petrol. Petrol ones are a steal at the mo! Was gonna get the 4.4 v8 but just in case any potential engine issue(which generally there isnt!!) i took the lesser model. And also it came up fucking cheap and local!
Both models return a similar mpg so i'm led to believe. Say 17 mpg in town rangine to 20 average and 28 on a run?!

Mine on lpg does 14-15 round town and wee bit more on a run.

AWESOME to drive and they handle REALLY well for such a big car! Honestly they are great on big easy motorway or country roads.

Reliability i guess is good because its a bmw?! I've had a brake hose corroded but hardly a big issue. The rear self levelling susp can be a common problem apparently. Some sort of compressor supplies air to constantly keep rear in check. I've experienced the car without it working as we blew a fuse while hitching a trailer and fiddling with the electrices. it was NOT FUCKING NICE!!

What do you mean about smoothness of the rangey?

any Q's just ask.

Worst thing about the G4, the colour!

At least the camel trophy cars were a muddy brown/canva colour.

They are tempting as they look great. I bought my wife a new RRS a year ago - I have to say that I doubt I would buy another. 12k miles on, and the car is starting to show its age. It has also been back to the dealer for numerous little niggles. This simply are not very well screwed together. I shudder to think what the car would be like after 60K… This coupled with the fact that the car is beginning to acquire a bit of a ‘drug dealer’ image, means that I will probably swap it for a BMW/Mercedes/Porsche in the near future…

Only reason i sold last one was to buy my Cayenne which im Now selling to Buy a Rangey Sport.
