Autobiograhy SDV8 sport will be circa £80K i am told HSE ( that was ) will be £71K 3.0 i have not been given any numbers but as the 3.0 has no interest at all for me LOL. New York should be the real taster. Far to many gone...

well thats silly, silly money...

2023 FFRR L460

At those kind of prices im wondering how many will think 'fack it, its only a bit more for the proper range rover and not the skimmed varient...

Though i do think the SSRR will attract those that need/want to have 7 seats that the ff should never really offer IMO. FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Whilst looks wise the 2014 SSRR seems to be a more cohesive design effort I would want to have one for a weeks test drive before committing. I had a current SSRR while my FFRR was waiting for a back order part and the ride quality was awful, the steering was heavy to give the impression of agility and it felt claustrophobic. I couldn't wait to get rid.Oh and the interior quality especially the leather was several levels below and it was an Autobiography model too. 2019 D5 HSE Lux SDV6 Indus

gone 17 older variants of FFRR

that seems to keep the pricing about the same gap then ??? There's probably already about 20K or so difference between a like for like Sport & Proper RR.

The old Sport is priced at about 76K for a SC AB

If they can close the price gap they will do. IMO as above its not worth the downgrade.

The engine in the HSE TDV8 i had munched itself after munching other parts of its system and bits of trim falling off. If it had been my own car and not a rental i would have been fuming! As it was the rental company wrote off the tank of fuel in it and for its disco replacement as a way of apologising to me for the issues.

I can just see the LR service reps face when the guy from the company bit his head off for them losing £1000's in rental from it  FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Wraparound lights are obviously a Range Rover identifier now.

It looks like a toy - massively deep sides, tiny glasshouse and oversized wheels. Must have had a few of those chavvy Koolart cartoons on the walls of the design studio.

exactly! and one of the worst things IMO is the ridiculously wide track, along with the laughable wheelarches, it looks like a sportspack mini!

As much as I would love a new Range Rover given entry price for the L405 of 160k euro for the Vogue and the fact that annual road tax is 2300 euro for the existing 4.4 tdv8 I will definetly look at the sport. If it drives as well as my existing 2008 then I would be severely tempted as road tax is lower along with price. Present :2008 TDV8 HSE

presumably the road tax would be the same though if the new sport has the 4.4 V8 ?

Yes but I'm thinking the 3.0 litre annual road tax is a steal at 1260  Present :2008 TDV8 HSE

if you can afford a l405 or new RRS then the annual road tax shouldnt matter..  ... - .- -.
