September 2010 Overfinch TDV8 Vogue

Hi All,

I am a regular over on rrsport.co.uk currently having a 2008 V6 RRS......

I am looking to trade up to an Overfinch Vogue in September and am trying to work out the best route:

Overfinch direct?
Buy from LR and then take to Overfinch (I have already briefly discussed this option with James at Lookers)

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

It is really only the body work I am interested in so it doesnt have to be a full Overfinch as I like the interior of the vogue anyway but prefer the Overfinch bodykit (being a youngster in Range Rover world).

Thanks
JF

welcome JF, Thumbs Up

its not that nobody wants to respond, its down to none of the regulars on here having much if any experience with Overfinch / body modifications of this nature. I have dealt with them on other matters, and always found them to be a very friendly and courteous bunch who look after their customers...

Personally I wouldn't mess with the bodywork on a FFRR, I think the Sport can look good modified as the bulbous bodywork suits it but imho the FFRR with a bodykit looks ghastly, I wouldn't fit eight spokes or a bodykit to a Bentley either Wink

When i phoned Bentley Glasgow who do the franchise up here for Overfinch they came back to me with a price of £8k just for the front and rear Aero 3 bodykit steering wheel and Tiger Alloys. This did not include the OF skirts .......

Me i would buy the FFRR take it to OF as they would make a better job of fitting the Kit that you are after rather than a Run of the mill bodyshop that are not too clued up on the dismantling of FFRR's ...... Thumbs Up

Or would it not be a better option to buy one that is already kitted out ........ Whistle

PS meant to start by saying welcome Embarassed Embarassed

And if you do get it done fire up some pic's don't think there is anyone on here with an OF FFRR ......... Whistle Whistle Whistle

yes it does look very nice, but imho several things are hopelessly wrong with it and the reason why I run Range Rovers:-

1). gives the wrong image (for me, the people I mix with and clients)
2). hopeless off road with those modifications
3). don't wish to look like either a scummy footballer or a respectable drug dealer Wink
4). its not as god aka LR intended
5). to me a nice FFRR is a std one with maybe very subtle tinted glass
6). Think you should stick with a Sporty Wink Very Happy Thumbs Up


7). if its what you want then the above obviously doesn't apply to you - ignore everyone else and go for it, its your money, your vehicle and that is all that matters Cool oh and yes it does look quite sexy Very Happy

I'm friendly. Smile But I know absolutely FA about Overfinch.
I like my FFRR standard anyway. It's not a Vauxhall Corsa that you need to make stand out from the crowd. Laughing

I love everything about it, I am not a footballer, I don't sell drugs, I just work hard and love cars!

I know what you mean about not being as LR intended and when it comes to Bentleys/Porsche/Ferrari/Lambo/Rolls I hate any sort of modification but to me the FFRR is a blank canvas and people like Kahn are horrific vandals whilst Overfinch is the Van Gogh of the lot!

I also like the one in JFs post but i dont go off road. If i did then i would stay stock Thumbs Up

Generally, i think people who are into modified LR products are RR Sport owners.

If i had the Sport then i would like the Overfinch Revere and Onyx products etc
