New Zealand 2010 Range Rover Autobiography 5.0 SC V8 Galway Green

Don't underestimate how much smaller the SSRR is inside. I sat in the back of one before I took the plunge and it is too low for me (1.89 / 6.2). The car feels quite small inside, contrary to the Discos. The FFRR is and feels a lot roomier as well.

Also it is nicer on the inside (my opinion obviously) and the outside is much nicer (my opinion again)

I would have been happy with the NA V8 but love it that I have the SC. Just the feel of the acceleration is brilliant, whether you need it or not Smile

Ultimately it is what you value the most in the car, the things you feel are important and taste. The SSRR is not a bad car, I just prefer the FFRR by a large margin and so do most if not all people on here I guess Smile MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!

United Kingdom 2010 Range Rover SE Td6 Zermatt Silver

Yes that a unique SC being 2004! Surprised

It is an SC though must have been one of the VERY early Land Rover registered cars...

Pretty well priced for that mileage ....

. . . . . Apologies to those who have seen this before. Whistle

A quote, I think from someone within Land Rover -

"If you arrive at Buckingham Palace in a Full Fat RR, they'll check your name on the list and let you in. If you arrive in a Sport, they'll think you're there to tarmac the drive" Laughing

For me, I just don't get the Sport. Why spend more money on a car that is less reliable, less practical and very claustrophobic ?

But hey - each to their own

Thumbs Up Where do you go after one of these . . . ?

hmm i can only see one milage and on the dealers website it is also 69000, it doeas look like a nice car and definitely an early S/C as it has the BMW seats which i prefer, the dealer also has a lot of high end cars and a few other LR's. im guessing but usually those who deal with high end cars usually sell clean cars but not always the case.

There's a downside to SC's in the fact they pile on speed so easily and effortlessly! I got 3 points within 2 months of ownership ....

Of course a chipped TDV8 is VERY comparable to an SC. personally I didn't take to the supercharged "whine" Whistle Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

I'd be inclined to search out a >56 plate with terrain response, rather than an earlier model Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

what is terrain response?

i wont be taking the car up a muddy mountain in Scotland, the most hassle it will get is getting up a hill with some leaves on it. Laughing

will terrain response still be an important factor ?
