Get this ultra clean Long Wheel Base(lwb) range rover vogue autobiography today. It comes with clean valloire white exterior,shadow wallnut wooden trim interior and pimento red interior leather seats. If you're looking at ultimate luxury,this is one vehicle that defines luxury almost to perfection. Despite measuring 5.2m in length,the largest ever built Land Rover only seats four passengers. The Long Wheel Base version of the Range Rover Autobiography has four individual seats,but adds an additional 200mm of rear legroom compared to the regular Range Rover,along with massage seats,seat heating and cooling,two drinks fridges and reclining seats. It comes with a 29-speaker 1700W Meridian Signature Reference sound system. With 375kW of power and 625Nm of torque, the 5.0-litre supercharged V8 engine gets along with absolute ease. This big Range Rover is for those that like to drive and those that also like to be driven. It’s also extremely capable off-road, featuring Land Rover’s full suite of four-wheel-drive systems. With the voice activated satellite navigation set,you're good to hit the road. Range Rover claims combined-cycle fuel consumption of 13.8 litres per 100 kilometres. This is commendable for a car of this size with a petrol engine. Even more remarkable is the ride quality on its 21-inch Style 5 wheels (with a regular spare). The adjustable air suspension and the car’s massive weight essentially iron out corrugations and round off any nasty bumps, and the acoustic glass and insulation keeps proceedings uncannily hushed (unless you plant your right foot). Despite its generous wheel travel, it never feels overly floaty on the road thanks to its adaptive dampers, and remains planted hurtling over pockmarked back roads that should really throw something like this all a-kilter. If a ‘roo leaps out, the 380mm front/365mm rear ventilated anchors bring proceedings to an abrupt, but not unseemly, stop. We’re not going to go so far as to say this thing feels nimble — no car that is 5.2 metres long, 2.2m wide and 1.85m tall ever will be. Its steering is a little detached and aloof and its ride is too plush to keep body-roll entirely in check, but it’s lighter on its feet and keener to turn in than you might think. Where you’re more likely to notice those gargantuan proportions is in a car-park or performing a U-turn. Its turning circle is 13.4 metres, and that light electric steering takes some serious twirling to complete a 180-degree manoeuvre. Like all Range Rovers, the LWB can actually go off-road, if you dare. The air suspension can increase the ride height, and the off-road system has various torque-allocating modes for a multitude of surfaces and the wading depth remains 900mm. An S-Class won’t take you across a river but this will. Of course, inside, there’s also a spec sheet that rivals War and Peace for brevity. Convenience features include a fridge up front, radar-guided cruise (only on option on other Rangies), reverse traffic detection with blind-spot monitors, a wade-sensing system and surround-view cameras that peep out at intersections. We’ve criticised Range Rover for not offering preventative safety tech before, so driving one with the requisite tech that the Germans have made de rigeur is welcome. Like the rest of the family, entertainment up front is covered by an 8.0-inch touch-screen with on- and off-road navigation, a two-way screen that projects different images to driver and passenger (so the front passenger can make the most of the digital TV reception, while the driver is show a touchscreen menu), a TFT/LCD instrument cluster and 10 different interior lighting options concentrated on the door handles and stowage compartments, in the footwells, and following the lines of the centre console’s veneer surfaces. We liked the pimped-out purple setting, and the start-up routine that sees the instruments light up and test the ‘gauges’, and the Bluetooth connection pair up instantaneously. This package brings semi-aniline leather 18-way adjustable front seats, heated/cooled seats front and rear, and adjustable and massaging electric reclining seats all round. The regular LWB models have a three-seat rear bench with a load-through facility, but the pair of seats in ours don’t flip down, though there’s till about 900 litres of space in the back for the polo gear. The 3D sound system is tremendous. Almost everywhere you turn there are speakers — next to and behind your head, and buried in the back of the seats — though they lack the theatre of an Audi in that none rise out of the dash or anywhere else. The front captain’s chairs are soft and the headrests could not belong to anything but a Range Rover, and touches such as the heated steering wheel; leather headlining, door linings, grab handles and pillars; flip-down leather-faced folding cubby holders in the doors and felt inserts in various storage compartments help the ambience. The fascia frames are brushed and the gear level surround is polished, for instance. Rear entertainment is handled with a remote control, wireless headphones, specific USB and auxiliary inputs and a pair of 10.2-inch screens. These screens can play Blu-Ray, digital TV or USB content, or display the sat-nav feed. The back seats really are the place to be. The divider has a cooler for that bottle of Bollinger and you can have fold-out tables, there are various storage spots throughout and ambient lights. Oh yes, and the giant memory seats also heat, cool and massage. You can move the front passenger seat from the rear as well, and operate the sun shades. It really was all we could do not to recline the seats their full 17 degrees, set the back-kneading function to full pelt, put some whale-song on the surround-sound and drift off for a nap. Just be careful opening those giant rear doors in a car park or garage, they have the wingspan of a small commercial jet. Well, figuratively speaking. An S-Class is near-flawless, but the Range Rover vogue autobiography LWB has the kind of comfort, presence and riding height nothing much else can match, at least until Bentley’s SUV arrives in 2016. Calling it the world’s ultimate SUV is a cliche, but as is often the case, it’s one with the ring of truth about it. Additional review credits by: Mike Costello of Car advice.

No. 07 camry sport is gone and no swap allowed for the 010 camry. Lucky4real28: |
Nice one boy! I once did same thing to a cashier who had paid me about 80k instead of 50k in abundle. She had mistakenly mixed about 30k made up of 1k notes,in between some 500 naira notes. My conscience didn't allow me take the money away... People would call you all sort of names for being honest but know you owe no one but your conscience,any explanation. Honesty is a virtue found in very few people;be glad you're one of the few. SAPEDRO: |
