west coast customs made a sport that looked exactly the same as this stormer for the crown prince of saudi,
even had gullwing doors and stormer badges

This is exactly why I adore the FF.

Because the Sport came out later many people actually think it's the higher spec model.

Think about it...

Range Rover
Range Rover Sport

As 'the' Range Rover doesn't have a model designation (although many call it a Vogue) I can see why people not in the know make the mistake.

Totally agree. I've lost count of the amount of times that friends family and even strangers ask why didn't I get the 'better' sport version!! Had a few sport drivers making out there's is a better model. I now tend to drive past them now with my window down shouting "GET A PROPER RANGE ROVER". It makes me feel good inside

Got a friend with a F'd up sport, who thinks he got the best car ever... such a fool

Just say to him his is a discovery with a different body and that the full size range rover is range rover through and through as it doesn't share its platform with any other car lol

Dont get me wrong the sport is probably a good car. Alot of people like em (my wife being one) but I have a problem with sport drivers that think that just cus it's the latest model means it's the best! There are a lot of sport owners in my area so my SC must look old and out of place to them but theres no need for the dirty looks as if to say ahh poor man couldn't afford the latest version. I was actually very close to buying a sport before I saw my SC but it was abit to overpriced for me. It was a nice motor but as soon as I saw the RR and sat in it the sport was wiped from my memory. And I'm fed up people looking surprised when I say I have a RR supercharged and finding out it aint a sport. WTF do people not know that the FFRR is the top model??? the sport is luxury but the the FFRR is luxury and then some.

Cheers Ex FFRR 4.2 Supercharged

A good friend of mine has just purchased a brand new sport and I picked him and his wife up last night in my FF. He couldn't stop going on about how much more refined and comfortable my FF was and even admitted to possibly having bought the wrong car as his wife insisted on the sport.
