Range Right - The new Range Rover V6 Diesel plugs the gap between the Disco and the Range Rover, using a gold-plated plug

摘要

The most advanced turbodiesel sport utility vehicle yet to emerge from Land Rover will come in three versions when it is launched to UK buyers this summer. But a rush of early-bird ordering means you can dismiss the notion about parking any Range Rover Sport model on your driveway for quite a long time. Super-keen customers have already snapped up two thirds of the 6,000 examples of the car that will be made available in British showrooms this year -and it's an odds-on bet that the rest will be allocated in the next few weeks. Dealers have been amazed at the level of interest shown in the zingy newcomer that puts one of our best-known brands in a fresh guise and all set to make the most of the latest SUV trend - as well as plugging the gap between Discovery 3 and the full-luxury Range Rover. 'It's been a long time since they have taken so many deposits on a model that customers have never actually seen and have only been able to read about. It certainly bodes well for the future,' says marketing director Andy Griffiths.
