It has been clearly stated that there are loads of RR Sports around and he wanted something that stood out.
In other words he wanted something that said "NOT ONLY CAN I AFFORD A RR SPORT BUT I CAN ALSO AFFORD TO EXPENSIVELY BAZZ IT UP"
Now if he doesn't care what people think then my name is Dilbert.
Now it seems some of you are in awe of ANYTHING expensive be it a classic 250GTO or a hatefully ruined Range Rover. I suggest you re-evaluate your worship of anything that costs a lot and maybe appreciate more important things in life? It would improve things immensely.
The guy could own Britain for all I care - he still has the taste of a rich chav.

Well Dilbert that is how you judge him. I look at it that he has taken a car and made it look how he wants it to look and the cost involved to do so is irrelevant to him. How it looks to anyone else is also irrelevant because it is what he likes that counts.
My scoob has gold wheels and a loud exhaust. Are they on there because I am trying to impress people or make a statement? No. They are on it because the wheels were an option from new that the previous owner paid for and because I like the sound the exhaust makes and couldn't give a flying toss whether others think it is over the top or is chav.
You need to realise not everyone falls into your pre judged delusions and that some people do actually buy things because they like like them and not to look flash in them.

Oh silly me. He bought a new RR Sport and then spent over £40k on it, ruined any off road ability it had and spent largely on cosmetic stuff becuase he didn't want to look flash.
Silly me.
Silly me.

Matteeboy - I wouldnt say that a successful business man is a chav to be honest. He wears a suit everyday unlike chavs who wear burberry and nike trainers.
Like I keep saying you cant judge a person by their car. I had an Escort RST but I am far from a chav, I had it because I have always wanted a Mercury Grey one so I did.
IT DOESNT HAVE TO GO OFF ROAD SO WHY KEEP SAYING THAT DUMB ***

I think 99.5% of people would see that on the street and it would not register in anyway shape or form it cost over £100k, more £50k absolute max. It is also not unique it is a RRS with crappy wheels, bodykit and re-arranged letters on the bonnet so just like the majority of the crap that gets churned out at Khans.
It must be amazing to mod a car and then be able to return it to standard and watch it's value skyrocket! Totally bizarre

Not very good at this but managed to do;
RR AR$E AR6 That would look good on the bonnet and boot.
So managed to use 9 of 16 letters, can anyone better that?

No anger, just light hearted comedy enjoyment and fun.
And the ability to spell, punctuate and construct a sentence that other English speakers can understand.
Now about being a tool - I rather fancy myself as a Leatherman tool. Small and robust but useful in most situations...

to deflect some of the criticism regarding taste maybe the owner should have looked harder at the options list and specced the
Tartan Travel Rug for the back seat
Countryside Alliance sticker on the rear window
Dog Guard (with optional cholocolate brown Lab, called Oscar)
copy of County Life for the Glove box
and lastly the pre mudded Green wellies for the boot

i think making too many assumptions about someone from the car they drive is dangerous
I have always wanted an Imprezza -- eversince I discovered them in the mid 90's -- believe it or not they were quite understated back then
so 8 months ago i bought one a "chav classic wagon" complete with big exhaust -- but I am a married degree educated father of five IT consultant, not or average classic owner -- so lighten up everyone, horses for courses and all that

LOL at this thread. Posters on a Scoob forum having a go at someone for buying a car and modding it to their taste 
Have we all not seen the gold wheels, bling lights, picnic table spoliers, front splitters, racing brakes on road cars etc. etc. Pots and kettles lads

Daft this.I love Range Rovers and yet Range Rover Sports seems to the antithesis of what Range Rover was all about.
They remind me of what Porsche became during the loadsamoney '80's.
This one makes me thinkthe driver would have the brightest of braces too.An unfair judgment I'm sure and I am always saying don't judge people by their choice of wheels.
I used to get excited over Irmscher stuff for Vauxhalls about 20 years ago.Any kits now have the complete opposite effect on me.
