    Range Rover Sport on Top Gear

    Don't know how far behind the UK you are on the Top Gear series , but last night they did a bit on the new Range Rover Sport
    Really gave it some crap of road and came out tops. They were boming around Sidbury Hill (army ground , Mark you will now whay it is like up there). They had a challenger tank chasing it , and trying to get a fire lock on it , while Clarkson hacked the Range Rover across Sidbury Hill. Was really flying across the bumps and tracks flat out in the Rangie. Then put it in low range and went up some of the really hard hill climbs.
    Well worth the whatch when you lot get it

    Ah... Sidbury Hill.

    I've got a set of tyres on the Freebee that Julian "Scrubbed in" up there on the racer!!!!

    I've not seen Top Gear on the TV guide over here yet but I'll keep an eye out for it.

    I've seen Sidbury hill in LROI mag, looks like an interesting place. That should be a good program to see if we get it here.
