    Sydney to Adelaide non stop in the new (second hand) RR

    Yesterday i picked up my new 2nd had range rover and drove it from Sydney to Adelaide. i have to say it is by far the best car i have ever driven long distance... smooth and quiet. LOADS of power to overtake. just a beautiful car to own... VERY happy with my decision .

    Economy on a highway trip is pretty good in V8 L322.
    Its a very refined engine.
