Supercharged one, + points, amazing looking, amazing pace, goes round corners well too for what it is. Very Nice interior. serious head turner.

- points, **** service from stealers for £70G car, loads and loads and loads of silly faults which leave you without car for a day at a time and incovienience. v amazing fuel economy which you cant fathom until you have tried one.
You look like a footballer or drug dealer.

If it was a new one, woudn't that sort of depreciation be fairly normal?

I'd get this one though;

Overfinch : Vehicles for sale

Or that 570 Classic on the page before... Or the 360 for that matter

Nice cars overall though, esp with a bodykit, pimpmobile or not .

Having said that, I have a Defender...

I like the RRS. If I had the money I'd have one in Black. Would consider getting the Kahn body kit on it too, but as I go shooting in a quarry and would no doubt take it there, it would probably get ripped off.

Not the fastest or best handling SUV you can buy, but by far the coolest IMHO of course

If you want to know the ups and downs of ownership, try RRSPORT.CO.UK, you will get some honest answers.

Cheers

seems that they seem to have a bit of an image problem??? A little like what I am driving now as they have gone from being one of the best kept secrets in the 90's to having a rep that is lower than a snakes belly in 2007

I don't quite get them unless you go off road. For that price why not get a fast big saloon ie S Class Benz or E Class AMG, M5 etc. Did you ever see the Top Gear episode when they put the Overfinch tweaked model with an extra 100BHP around the track? It was the slowest car ever bar none!
Unless you go off road why buy a car that handles like a boat, drinks petrol and has an ever increasing image problem? Imho of course!
