It also made it into the urban dictionary! They have their own theory on the origin.

That Urban Dictionary is WRONG!

I did some advanced searching on RR.net for posts that had the term full fat. The earliest mention of it was in April 2005 and it was by a certain RRUK. Very Happy

I am convinced I came up with the name back then as no one else had thought of it.

Here's the search results...

Depends if "BOSS" is some sort of German prison slang for something derogatory or not! Discovery 4 HSE

You should correct them then, and challenge them to find an earlier reference!!

Q. Is it RR.net where you posted the comment (ie, could they be talking about you??)

Q2. When exactly was the RR sport released in 2005? The term can't have been used before then because the car was just a 'range rover', before the little girls version came out (que angel cross posting to RRS!)
