Personally for the cars with the same engine and box i'd buy the FFRR over the RRS, different animals, RRS is sporty minded and the FFRR is relaxed so doesnt enthuse thrashing as much as the RRS does and thus i personally think they see a gentler life over all.

I was in a similar position as I was looking at a RRS first before the FFRR.

Yes I seen that earlier, it looks great but I'm not won over with the blue leather, got a feeling the wheels look a little like replicas also. Worst part about it though is that it's 4 hours away |

Don't buy a black or white one and the drug dealer thing won't be an issue in an ff. the ff really feels better off the line and dare I say it if equipped with the same wheel and tyre combo as an SS would likely be quicker due to the weight and chassis/body differences |

In all honesty the drug dealer comments etc don't really bother me, as long as I am happy with the car that is the main thing, the majority of my cars in the past have been black, white or grey.

I'm 30 and drive a Black Supercharged with factory tints. Never been pulled in 8000 miles, even when I had it lowered by 25mm and the stereo on full blast. You'd be amazed how fast they go round corners when lowered, but I feared for my license so jacked it back up so the ESP kicks in before I do something stupid |

I was so surprised and impressed by the supercharged, it went fast for a car let alone for a big heavy 4x4, I couldn't live with the single figure mpg though |

At the moment road tax is £460, without going out to double check. I am sure that's what it was last time.
