This is to name a few of the features, I am sure i have missed allot of the functions this thing has fitted.....

You can talk to the thing and it does what you say, crazy or what ??

I am still sussing out most the functions it has fitted. It has buttons, switches and Gizmo's everywhere you look

The first mod i am looking at doing is fitting a set of 22" Kann Alloys with 285/35ZR22 Toyo Proxes Tyres.



Looking like this as it is :



Or heres a Photoshop of them fitted....



Come on peeps, Opinions needed on the Rangy and the 22" Alloys

very nice mate, it looks gangsta

Nice one. More toys than Hamley's a Christmas . Like the idea of the 22's. IMO the 19's look a bit small (can't believe I said that about 19" wheels!!).

Premium ride dude , bring on the bling

That's flippin gorgeous Jay great choice. Love the clour i haven't seen many(if any) silver ones round here.
Think the wheels will make a huge difference. Have you any other plans for it?

The wheels suit the car ja.

Its hard to ake the right selection on a vehicle like this, but i hav seen one or twpo with a similar wheel, and it almost looks like it came out of the factory like that, thats how well they suit the car, so i`d say get em...

Very nice Jay. Looks better than the Ritz inside and those wheels definately suit it.

What are your next mods planned?

Im looking at getting the Powerklick Chip for it next.

Standard Performance Figures

Power : 177PS

Torque : 390nm

(10 minutes later)

Tuned-Figures

Power : 204PS

Torque : 440nm

This Chip also improves fuel economy

Phew,so this is your new project not that nissan thing. Now this is pimp,with those wheels itll be ace.Not much else it'll need after the wheels,i mean,what can u put in that car that it hasnt already got?

I got a lift home in this from the rolling road on Saturday, and its lurvely

Comfy, toys galore, and enough torque to start its own chat show.

very nice jay, think u should go for bigger than 19's tho. What are the prices for tyres for 22's if their not to much different go for the 22's. Uve got a very swish ride

looks very swish although personally i wouldnt mod it

This is lovely Jay, really comfy especially with the heated seats, i cant believe how spacious it is. I love it!!

Nice mate, very smart.

Well, Look at what i got yesterday







Camera Phone Pics, Poor quality but better ones to come soon.....









After fitting them and trying not to look at them so i would get the WOW factor i drove it around the block to settle the suspension and parked it up, i walked over the road and turned around ........ ****..... They look awesome !

The ride is un-spoilt and NO tracking at all which suprises me. It handles like a dream.

Best thing since sliced bread.

You really have to see them to appreciate just how well suited they are to the car.

I see them against the wall earlier today,
boy there MASSIVE and Heavy...

Will hopefully see them later

They look great from the pics.

how much adjustment is there in the suspension,can u drop it right down?and raise it so high it looks daft? likin dem wheels

The pics are with the suspension in the down position, Yes it goes high and looks pathetic

Verynice ride matey loving it.

Get yourself a driver n u sit in the back.

PS I CAN DO IT

Facking quality mate! Very swish indeed!

wheels look the part

They look brilliant mate. They really suit the car. Didn't waste much time did ya! Absolutley spot on.

seen it last night and they look amazing the whole pimp thing come into mind, i feel your going away from the speed thing!!!! a bit of luxury is much nicer. How economic is it??? any specs????

Those wheels really are the muttz nutz! Very, very tasty

£100 to fill 'er up I will never complain about filling my other half's Landcruiser up again. Compared to you I think I've got it easy!!

Seen the car today and my god.. I understand the 'wow' factor now Jay..! Me and Tupac were concidering stealing it.. =o)

doesnt matter about performance, it aint trying to be a sports car. Its a luxury snob mobile. JAY YOU SNOB lol very nice choice jay

People think a car of this size doesn't shift so the try to have it off...but they're wrong. My dad has an amazon & that doesn't half move so i appreciate that its not slow mate.

its the TORQUE,TORQUE talks,i drive defenders at work and altho they have a bollocks top speed if u floor it in 4th itll rack up an extra 20MPH faster than my car doin the same in 3rd,maybe even 2nd

Just been doing a bit of playing about with a website for the Range Rover.......

Click here to check it out.........

Starting to look real good (The vehicle, not the webpage)

nice, allot like the alloys on my brothers X5

Admin edit : Hosted Pic

lookin really good J. so what's next on the list?

Erm, Maybe getting it chipped for extra BHP & Bags of Torque, also improves fuel economy (Hopefully)

my fuel economy went down after gettin chipped:( but was stil worth it.

Is your family the MOB or something ahhhh should ive said that??? please dnt kill me ha ha ah

Admin edit : Hosted Pic

shhh! he got rid of it for an audi S4, got rid of that and now has a bmw M3.like this



sorry for being a post *****

-------------------------------
Admin Edit : Hosted Pic.

i aint going to turn me back on you ha ha ha

he has a CSL?! rich as u like,wouldnt u want one of them jay??

i dont like bmw's (sorry to any one who owns one) cos most guys i know who own them have big egos and small trousers, and need a car that screams "LOOK at me i have an enormous....4 door saloon"

M3's are nice, kinda like the New M5 also but i am looking at 966 Porsche's at the min....

I think that will be the next toy ??

Carrera 2

Admin Edit : Hosted Pics

That porsche is GORGEOUS! You should get one of them

wer do u get the money from!!? lol

Working hard and long hours all my life mate....

Porker is verynice.

Good trackday toy

Cheap tyres .

You liking this ranger better than the last one Jay?

Yeah mate, its like driving on air.....

It must be a hovercraft in discuise

very nice, much more you, u dnt suit sensible cars lol

whats next on the agenda? i think it needs more speakers,like the old rangey had

Well peeps, advice needed once again.....

The Porsche 996 (Newer 911) bug has bitten me on the arse

I have been offered a straight swap for this baby :





You can read the full article on ebay :

Ebay link to the item.....

Opinions needed, good and bad !

I dont like them cars, i dont know why.. i just dont lol

But doesnt matter what anyone says, you know what your going to do

get the Porsche jay looks nice an is probily better then the rangy but its up 2 u matey

Good points. Yes,much better than the rangey, great looking and great going cars, top down in the summer

Bad point. It looks a bit odd with the roof up, normal fixed top wud look better..........but not in the summer.

Get it

Is this in the budget:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1979-PORSCHE-...hZ005QQcategoryZ9860QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

get it will make you feel less of an old age pensioner he he he very nice

I dont like the old shape buddy,



i would have a 966 Turbo if funds permitted but they are big bucks....

u gonna swap the rangey 4 the Porsche then jay?

If its worth the book price of the rangey, or anything near it, id take the swap Jay.

Either way you've been tryin to sell the rangey for ages aint ya, so at least this baby could give you more fun and if you decide to sell it as well, it would probably sell easier then the rangey.

Having said that though, I dont particuarly like em, would rather have the rangey meself.

They are worth the same book price so i have nothing to loose....

The Porka is probably worth more come the summer as its a Rag Top and hopefully easier to sell than the Rangy ??

The bloke has gone quiet on me

Will keep you all posted peeps and keep the comments coming

*** Update ***

I might be doing the deal tomorrow (Sunday)


I have just been looking at the stats for the car !!!!

Group 20 Insurance

Performance :

Engine Size 3387 cc
Cylinders 6
0-60 mph 5.2 s
Power Output 300 bhp
Valves 24
Torque 350 Nm
Top Speed 171 mph

Slightly slower than the Impreza 0-60 but probably a bit faster top end at 171 mph (Scooby dashes off to search for an airfield) The faster top end is probably due to the 6 speed Gearbox....

Its full of Torque to at 350 NM





And it should look like this with the hard top removed :



Im kinda looking forwards to getting it now, but hey, its not a done deal as yet, need to make sure its a proppa car first......

sounds like a good deal to me .If i was in your position i would go witht the swap as the porker would sell alot easyer in the sumer an can be alot more fun in the porker

Oooh nice! I know a hairddresser who has one of those lol

Ditto, go for it scoob. Looks better than I thought it would with the removeable hard top too.

Well peeps, its gone at last........
