There is a saying '95% of all land rovers made are still on the roads today' '5% made it home' 😀

I had a RR Sport overtake me on a blind corner on a blind summit on the way back from work one day. It obviously thought it would crush any car coming the other way...

...unfortunately it obviously hadn't banked on a Hummer H1 coming in the other direction!

At least it didn't swerve - but it did brake VERY hard.

I almost fell off with laughter!

My dislike of RR sports stems mainly from that ad that seemed to suggest driving a huge 4X4 too fast through built-up areas gives the same sort of rush as zipping through trees on skis.

Car ads don't generally set me off but that one really annoyed me.

Great, monkeyp! Unfortunately, the Hummer was probably driven by an even larger male hen, so probably not much gained

RR's generally (sorry to generalise!) do seem to attract their fair share of "drivers" with low self-esteem trying to over-compensate for something.

That's my 2p worth.

OK, not quite the M27, somewhere between Poole and Baisingstoke, via the M27.

Thing is bad driving can be excused, we all make mistakes, and usualy after a close call we drive home at 5mph to change our pants. This guy/cock/girl just carried on repeatedly f**** up every few meters, before accelerating off again.

How odd.
Only this morning, a colleague & I were summising that the only word to describe your typical RR Sport driver has a CU' before the NT'.

KINGTUT - you don't have to believe me, that is fine, but given the huge range of ridiculous cars driving around my part of Worcestershire it really isn't that surprising.

Said Hummer is often seen trying to negotiate it's way around the country roads around Romsley - at least it's huge spinners may help keep the hedges trimmed.

Friday evening in West Hagley is like a willy waving contest for those with expensive cars and daft personalised number plates

On my ride home tonight I got overtaken by three RR sports. Two of them gave me plenty of room, were keeping a good distance from the car in front and normally I wouldn't have given them a second thought if it hadn't been for this thread.
The third however was a different matter. I don't think he had pulled out at all to pass me, but that might have been because he hadn't seen me because he was so close to the people carrier in front i think he was pushing it.
I think it was the same gangsta I have noticed before, blacked out windows and personalised plates.

So the conclusion of my extensive research is 1 in 3 range rover sport drivers is a nob.

Money does not afford you taste or dignity. Speaking of range rover sports and all of its type.. they're utterly pointless modes of transport really.
A large estate car or people carrier would do the people moving bit far better and you'd not be branded a drug dealing ****er by the rest of the world.

From what was left of the Range Rover I believe it was a Sport.

im sure not every1 who has one is a bad driver

Yeah, but to be fair - their driving skills are often a bit rusty because the cars are usually at the dealership...
