Saw my first one today driving through Central London, it was a Left hooker. Must have been a Press car. same colour as this one below.

One of the lads at work was following one around Solihull just before Christmas - he's hoping to get one from the factory for a few days on loan (hopefully!!)

:D Called into one of our printers today that we use. And the bloke who owns it was given a New Range Rover Overfinch 580s, because he was a long standing customer ( byes at least 4 Defenders/Freelanders/Rangies a year ) but the last Range Rover he bought kept haveing problems with gearbox and electrics so he sent it back and the Range Rover dealership didnt want to lose such a good customer. Here is what they sent to him.... luky [!Expletive Deleted!] 8)
If in first you dont suceed,try second....
If it aint broke, your not trying ard enough....

:D Here is a picture taken on my mobile of the Range Rover Overfinch 580s. Apparently he has a boat moored at Windemere, it weighs 1 and a 1/4 ton and when hitched up to the Rangie. T he Rangie is still capable of 140mph....  :shock:   On its own itll do 170mph so he says,,,mmmmm?

There's something about it that doesn't look right,

don't like the moulding on the bottom of the doors.

It did look a bit odd when we saw it - the front spoiler at the bottom looks too wide and too low (for a Land Rover!!)

It ain't no off-roader with that spoiler on it. That's not to say I don't like the look of it though.

dont like it. It looks too low and not too practical either with the spoiler on it.
If I could only find some mud to play in, I would be as happy as the preverbial pig!!!

From my brief experience I'd say it would be worth the wait...


I know land rovers aren't necessarily about going fast... but its fun if you can!!!  :twisted:
