In best LR tradition the online configurator isn't working properly! Corris Grey SDv6 HSE with Panoroof,red brake callipers, 22" Style 6 alloys and grey oak interior please. Interesting that according to the configurator there is no standard low ratio gear box on the techy spec but you get TR2, wonder how that works with no low ratio? Low ratio is an option now, not having it saves 18kg which will help on emissions and 99% of RRS drivers never use it anyway!
My spec

Corris Grey looks not far off Stornaway Grey which is a good thing, and no OG available!

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

On the whole very nice.

Revolutionary as GM calls it....I think not.

I can see a whole aftermarket it rear bumper mods springing up! Looks a bit limp IMHO.

RE: All-New Range Rover Sport to be Revealed in New York

If you go into the configurator there are some options to stick onto both front and rear bumpers - stainless steel bash guards!

Even with the added body coloured mouldings and bashguards, it falls short on styling at the rear.

It's a Sport for goodness sake. Where are the exhasusts! I think the V8 exhausts aren't that much different? It was a heavy design feature on the Evoque for the Dynamic.

I think they have seriously missed a trick here.

The grey looks so much better than the orange/red first photos that came out but that rear bumper is just terrible.
Just looking at the online configurator and it seems the basic S model is far more sparsely equiped than a Pure Evoque. It has, as standard, cloth seats, no heated windscreen, no front fogs, no auto lights, no xenons, no power mirrors, no paddle shift, no mood lighting, NO MATS!! and a starting price of £55k!!!!!!!
