Default Supercharged Rover

Does anyone has any first hand experience with the new supercharger Rover? I was out running errands for about and hour and a half today and saw five of them. They seem to be everywhere. I parked to pick up lunch and there were two right next to me.

The supercharged RR is a flash in the pan.

Yes, I test drove the supercharged sport with my wife.....bottom line..she prefers her X3. The RRSS drives superbly,and is very quick,but the interior trim is just as crap as in her X3 (which cost half as much) and the RR has no Tech like the Bimmer ( No reversing cam, no pano roof, no electric lumbar, no TV). It was so funny to see the look on the RR dealers face when she kept comparing it to her X3.
He was saying it was such a much better car, and she was saying : 'well, how come it doesnt do this or this or this etc.....' Hilarious....

It looks like a nice car until you drive it and you sit on it

there are so many of them in my school, I guess they are pretty cheap around 50k. Rarely see the supercharged though, even the supercharged is slower than the Cayenne S. LOL

Are you talking about the Range Rover or the Range Rover Sport (not that its easy to tell them apart)... seems like RRSSs are outnumbering RRs here in London already...

It must be the sport.Even though the first post just says 'supercharged rover' of which there are two.

I agree though, they are everywhere in London.I see them so often, I think they are black cabs.(because they look like them too).
