The Appeal
With a supercharged V8 engine, an impressive interior and a rugged, hard-wearing spec, it’s no wonder that the Range Rover 5.0 was a bit of a jewel in the crown upon release for Land Rover’s luxury range. This is an all-singing, all-dancing SUV that dares to pack as much as it can under the bonnet and inside the cabin.
Beautifully maintained, extensively serviced and with a stylish colour scheme both inside and out, this is a very well-kept example of a luxury 4x4 with a growing fanbase. A real treat for the driver who wants a good climber with all of the bells and whistles.
