WHY IS THE RANGE ROVER SPORT SO POPULAR?

Launched in 2005, just four years before the financial crisis, in a world where then-British Chancellor Gordon Brown famously said: "There is no more failure," a

y, Fast looking but still like all Land Rover products are and always have been. I've been very capable off road, the weird things about these Range Rovers, now I mean it's basically just a big GT car now because it's too nice to go off road with just scraping the wheels and stuff, what are they like? so?

Some people just argue that it's a status symbol, just this big tall carriage where you can look at people less opulent than you. That's probably why it attracts island stars and equestrian enthusiasts, and to be honest, I'm very excited. Driving this because I have never driven a

y Ranger before and I would basically buy it just for looks and let's face it the Range Rover is the car that every other SUV is trying to be. Do I take a slightly different approach? Stance on the Range Rover Sport I feel like the lower models can be underpowered, overpriced and passersby give you this look of what and to me you can buy a better road car with the BMW X5 and pay less for it . so let's see if I'm wrong, what are your first impressions?

I mean the first thing that strikes me is that the ride height is absolutely perfect, I love it, I love it here, just like I said in the intro, I just feel like I'm dominating the road and looking down on everyone scoundrels and scoundrels who can't afford one of these, I think this model is the one I would choose, this engine, yes definitely, I think we were looking at the previous models. and this is the diesel sdv6 and it basically has the same kind of torque as the big gas v8s, doesn't it? Yes, it is 25 Newton meters less than the V8, so it produces 600 Newton meters of torque.

This engine, yes, it is fair. I know you won't once you get going on the v8, it'll be like that constant knock in the back of your head, let's do something like that yeah, but this went off the line like I put my foot in the ground and for a great car, this shifts and starts, yes, there is absolutely no doubt about that and you also have the fuel economy, that is the middle ground, the sdv6, yes, the v8s are going to have a consumption of abysmal fuel and then you have like your four cylinders. gasoline that are simply going to be slower are slow have little power for the weight of the car produce 200 newton meters less torque yes, it could be more the more horsepower they have, right?

But yeah, that's not what matters in a car. so, no, you need, you need that diesel and more cylinders, and there you have it, it sounds great, doesn't it?, yes, this dynamic SDV6 is a three-liter, twin-turbo, six-cylinder diesel that generates 253 brake horsepower and about 600 newtons. In meters, you can really feel all that torque when you step on the accelerator from low speeds. Prices start around $72k, but that goes up quickly when you're expecting must-have items like this one, which has an air suspension and 2,800-pound off-road package and a panoramic roof. The 200-pound Land Rover stayed between 31 and 37 miles per gallon, but we saw numbers closer to 20.

We drove with enthusiasm, although the interior was quite spotless, beautiful. I mean, what were you saying? Land Rover basically had to go, you know? I have to get them right now because audi bmw porsche they all make suvs now, they have been for a while, they have been a land

rover

. I feel like they are very much a company that reacts to what's happening in the market rather than thinking about what can we do next? While I think BMW, our hands down, BMW Audi, are companies thinking about what we can do next. How can we improve these cars?

BIM no doubt, but being inside an X5 for me will be more refined than this. I get what you're saying I get what you're saying, I still love this because it's a Range Rover, which is what everyone tries to do. Yeah, well, you know you're right. The Range Rovers of yesteryear were notoriously shocking and unreliable. There is no doubt that this car. you, if you want, even take it down a muddy road, oh yeah, you have to get a Land Rover, you have to get around the other thing too, there are a lot of things, although this will basically be sold to people who will drop you. kids outside, you know, they sell drugs on it, that kind of thing on the road, no, no, you don't sell drugs off the road, no, no, you don't go in, who lives on a farm, a muddy farm in the middle of somewhere you know you can sell them your drugs at 100 degrees and as with all Land Rover products it has to be able to go off-road and here we have the Terrain Response 2.

Air suspension. Adjustable air suspension. I'll tell you what we did before with the jack on the air suspension. You've obviously seen the photos and I think it looks absolutely wicked, pulled up to the top like this, yeah I think it looks ridiculous, I just like it. It's like being nasty and looking like a job in a big black Range Rover that's very expensive at the top, putting everyone down, yeah, and if I can get it a little higher than it already is then it'll be brilliant, yeah, that's fair , so I guess. I better let you drive it now if you don't mind you can try it.

I don't really want to get out of it because I really like it. Then maybe I'll feel even more special somewhere because I'd be like another driver, yeah you could stay back, I won't do that, he's a bully, ah, it's really cold out there, once again I have to put my seat back, by the way , I'm not an idiot, if you saw the last video, he calls me. a low house while he was out of the car it's just incredibly huge how tall are you, eight foot six? No, I love the driving position like I did in the discovery sport.

I like how you can see the hood too and the fake hood vents. Yes, fake bomb events, yes, they are good, right? He just didn't move there. Okay, he'd rather hit me than the cyclist. That's sad. I think one of the things with this car we've definitely noticed today as well. everyone seems to look at you, everyone thinks you're a and we've been too polite because of the type of vehicle we're in, we just say hello to the people who say hello, thank you all so much, no one recognizes you, yes everyone. He looks at you like you're a, I mean, I personally don't care about that because, yeah, I am and by the way, I'm trying to thank you for that and, in a way, I live my life, you know, the way you can.

I don't care what other people think and this is definitely a car for those types of people. Yes, sorry again. I hate to keep throwing the x5 out there, but to me it's the best entry point SUV you can get. x5 exceptionally good for 65k, while this I feel like you have to hit the 78k mark and I don't think you'll see many 30 year old guys or 30 and 20 year old girls at x5 because they're just not that desirable, I think this could take the award for best suv gt mix class cheekily yeah yeah and i think he was a drug dealer too he was probably around here it's a good place to be probably one of the best places to be in a car, that's what they look for in it, yes, you want to be protected from the outside world, you know, away from all these ruffians and scoundrels in it, although we are ruffians and scoundrels in the Range Rover, so, would you buy one?

I would definitely buy one. I love it. I think it's absolutely brilliant. I love everything. I think it looks great. I love the driving position. I think it's great. I look good. I think so. I think it suits you especially. that atom, yes, would you buy one? No, no, I know what you would buy, an x5, that's right, yes, because it's a better car, um, but yes, definitely, the reason I would choose an x5 over this one is because I feel like you're getting better. Value for money, better standard spec and I think going for a road car that doesn't need to be taken off road is a better car, but as we have seen today, yes this car can handle anything you throw at it.

Absolutely and it's a Range Rover and it's a Range Rover, but don't forget all those looks we had.
