That's good enough reason for meTBH I don't really see the point of a 4x4 with a big engine in , I'm sure the 5.0 supercharged puts a massive smile on the drivers face

I had an L322 RR for a while, it was rubbish. Terrible handling, so soft it felt like it wouldn't make a corner. They are full of charm but really, they're ****. Had a P38 4.6 HSE many moons ago that was better than the L322 but also not very good. I like RR a lot but every experience I've had tells me they are not well made.
One of the two cars I've owned that I should never have sold was my Touareg R50. These are silly quick, well made and very rare so still £18k up for one, even though they're now 10 years old. The v10 is good too but actually the 3.0 v6 is a better buy (stay away from the 2.5 which is underpowered). We've had two v6s and both were great.
From a Jeep perspective, I briefly had a Patriot Startech version which looked cool but was rubbish. My cousin in Abu Dhabi has the SRT version of the Cherokee and loves it. They made some noise!

Quickly replaced by a when you're filling it up
That us exactly what I like about XC90's. I live in RR city with Hadley Wood & Brookmans Park near us. Everyone drives RR's round here to schools shouting look at me & my white RR with 21 inch black alloys. Nobody batters an eyelid at an XC90. You'd be too much of a sheep round here to have a RR. I have not seen one XC90 V8 around here.Just been looking on line and have found some Volvo V8's and Porsche Cayenne along with the Touaregs but still for me they don't have the Presence of a Full Fat Range Rover.
But that's just me.
That was supposed to say young lad! EditedFair comment Dean I would agree if I was still in Auckland but even there the Range Rover is out numbered by the Porsche, Lexus and Levante.
Down here away from the Big Smoke the RR is as unique as a Maserati.
I will believe you about the young lady at the petrol station but more likely a spectacled nerdy Telegraph reader

We take the Telegraph - but only to look at the picture on page 3
I have been in the 99-05 V8 grand cherokee which has better handling but my main criticism is the handling is quite old school Compared to the modern suvs which are designed to handle better on the road than off... so on that basis I'dprobably go for a Cayenne
