United States 2010 Range Rover Supercharged 5.0 SC V8 Stornoway Grey
Hello from a new FFRR owner!

Hey everybody, just purchased a 2010 FFRR SC last weekend, trading in my 2006 RRS SC. Enjoying it so far. I have some questions I’ll probably post on a couple different topics, but for now just wanted to say hello and post a pic (this was from the dealer’s website, haven’t actually gotten around to taking any of my own yet).

Stryke-Thanks! My 2006 was a Sport, so moving to the 2010 full size is quite a bit different, as you’d expect: big jump in power, much quieter inside and more upscale, updated electronics (slightly nicer UI for the Navi, iPod integration, reverse camera, etc.) are nice to have. Kind of funny though, my Sport was pretty loaded out, so it had a few options like ACC and rear seat entertainment (not that I ever used the latter) that were not checked on this full size that I bought. Overall, I’m a happy camper so far, and I’ve got about 6 months of warranty remaining, which I’m sure I will need…

Nice Pic Smile

The car looks a little high, is it at offroad height at all?

Like the autobiography wheels on it as well, though they make the brakes look tidgy! FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

They're 22" from the look of it, similar design. You can buy copies of most of the OE designs in bigger sizes.

You see, here in the UK, the Supercharged Vogue comes pretty much fully loaded out the factory.

Enjoy it!

Thanks for the comments all! They are 22" wheels, and as Trommel mentioned, I believe they must be a larger reproduction of the 20" wheels that came on this Autobiography Black Limited Edition model:

http://www.topspeed.com/cars/landrover/201...66236.html

I think they look good on this truck, but of course wheels are always pretty polarizing.

I feel like the ride is very good, even with this wheel/tire combo, and better than the Sport I traded in. I actually had the same size wheels/tires but different style on my Sport, so maybe I've just used to the ride that comes with oversized wheels/tires.

You know, it's funny, this is a small used car dealer who specializes mainly in imports-Mercedes, BMW, Porsche, etc. They only ever seem to have about 30-35 vehicles in their inventory, and they are located out at a small airport and keep all their vehicles in a hangar. They always take pics in the hangar with the planes in the background. It makes for some nice pics on their website, and this is the second vehicle I've bought from them, so I guess it's working! Very Happy
