When the current, BMW-designed Range Rover replaced the so-far traditionalist Rangie in 2002 it dispensed with many of the things previously held dear – live axles, full chassis construction – yet it became the most versatile version ever of the iconic British brand. In 2007, the engine range embraced two Jaguar-sourced V8 engines: a 200kW/640Nm 3.6-litre turbodiesel, and a 291kW/560Nm 4.2-litre supercharged petrol. The base turbodiesel comes with a swag of off-road electronics including stability, traction and hill-descent control, and adds six airbags, 18-inch alloys, parking sensors, satellite navigation, TV, Xenon headlights, sunroof, power front seats, leather trim, and eight-speaker, six-CD audio.
