Default Just been driving a modified RR Sport - **** me!

Friend has one of these.
Strut bodykit
Khan stage3 4.2 modified - 465BHP supercharged
Not sure on the suspension but uprated to suit the extra power
22" alloys
In black - it looks a beast just standing still, Just incredible in something that large. I have driven cars with plenty more BHP but not that big size wise. It handled very well for its size although i did not push it too hard as the roads are wet and it is not my car. Great pant-wetting sound as well

His wife has an SL55AMG - were popping round on Sunday!


Looks just like this although the wheels are silver

Nearly, it is a footie player spec car (although the alloys aren't chromed) but its first owner is in the music business, friends with my friend (in the fashion business, owns a bigish well-known clothing/designer brand) and sold it to my friend at 3 months old/new. Apparently the music guy has a stable of super/hypercars as well, the RR Sport was his daily driver until he got bored with it - Poor sod!

I am not trying to be coy but the music guy is really quite well known and likes his privacy, as does my friend. I was just quite hyper having driven this car - my daily driver is a honda accord (160bhp so not exactly setting the world alight) these days

Doing well then but there is never any need for 22" alloys!

My dad knows the owner of a big record label (since childhood) - he had a sealed, climate controlled garage with a few tasty cars stored inside. Including a lush Porker 356.

Nice business to be in for some!

I'm interested in what cars you've driven with 'plenty more BHP' than 465?

Most i've driven is 420.

420bhp for me.

That RRS looks awfull IMHO. I like the standard RRS far better.

Have seen a Full on Kahn version. Massive wheel arches, even bigger wheels. Looked ****.

Give me a standard RRS TDV8 in Black, with slightly larger (but not 22") Cosworth Alloys, and that would do me.
