#11 of 647 Re: New Article [eelpout] by eelpout Jan 06, 2005 (10:43 am)
Replying to: eelpout (Jan 04, 2005 10:47 pm) one interesting thing in that article is that the rear hatch isn't a split door arrangement. because the Sport is more oval in shape they couldn't make it work like the normal RR, so they have a standard one piece hatch instead (i'm assuming lift-up, article wasn't clear). but the window can open too for throwing groceries in and stuff. take that GX470.   to answer my own question, there was no mention of cargo capacities.

Replying to: eelpout (Dec 23, 2004 8:11 am) Range Rover sales for December reached an all time high, so I doubt that LR3 is hurting Range Rover sales. Replies to this message: nabzy (Jan 12, 2005 5:52 am)

Replying to: tincup47 (Jan 06, 2005 1:41 pm) From surfing the US landrover site saw 2 really well put together videos one of the new range sport and one of the 2006 supercharged range, showing off all the new goodies, looks great....   seems like the 2006 models will be coming sooner rather than later given they are showing 3 minute videos and have detailed info on the site already....   The Uk landrover site also has new info on the sport......
#14 of 647 fold flat 2nd row seats? by sta2 Jan 15, 2005 (12:12 pm)
love the fold flat seats in the new LR3. It lloks like most of the underpinnings and interior for the RR Sport is from the LR3.   Can anyone tell me if the 2nd. row seats will fold flat!   Thanks Replies to this message: bgreig (Apr 03, 2005 8:23 pm)

I had the chance to get a up close look at this new Rover at the Detroit autoshow this past weekend, and I must say I like the whole package. It has the classic Range Rover looks, but it much smaller and not so upright and bulbous looking. The interior is much sportier and with the top model packing the Jaguar r-series cars supercharged (390hp) V8 it should be a performer, but still not a Cayenne turbo killer.   M

So, merc1, stop with the suspense: What's the cargo capacity? Will the 2nd row seats fold flat?

I wish I could tell you, but the vechicles weren't open at Detroit on the day I went.   M
#18 of 647 Dealer Orders by calbrit Feb 15, 2005 (11:38 pm)
Some dealers have just been asked by LR what RR Sports they would like in the first consignment. At the moment dealers do not have any more info than is out in the public domain. Dealers are allowed to select from the Orange or Black Exterior and 300hp engine or 390hp engine for their deliveries, no mention of any other options.
#19 of 647 Build Profile by calbrit Feb 17, 2005 (11:08 pm)
LR has had a tough time with the LR3 and HSE model availability. I am afraid, this might be true with the RR Sport and the Supercharged engine. Plans are to build 15-30% (assume 15%) with the supercharged engine. This could mean large shortages and waiting lists.
#20 of 647 A weird opinion by chris65amg Feb 18, 2005 (3:19 pm)
Range Rover Sport?!? How silly! Attaching the car to the name will probably deter Range Rover customers, because it doesn't...... look.... classy. They probably should have called it the LR3 Sport or whatever. It might be a hit, so don't take what I say super seriously. Just not my cup of tea. And certainly not some of the more affluent Range Rover buyers, who would rather forego the silly looking orange paint. I looked at Motor Trend, and the interior wasn't nearly as good as the Range Rover's.
