Is The 2008 Land Rover Range Rover Sport A Worthy Weekend Athlete?
At a price of $60,000, including an auto warranty, this luxury SUV is made to impress. And although this vehicle is much too dressy to be a true weekend athlete, it is capable of delivering the goods.
One good feature on this SUV is there is no clamshell hatch. This is terrific because generally clamshell openings are difficult. They make you lean over the clamshell to get you things, and this is hard no matter what size you are. However, although the hatch is nicely designed, it isn’t ideal for short people because it opens high and is heavy.
This vehicle has plenty of cargo room for gear, but at this price and size, space should be a given. And you will be fine camping with four people.
Finally, the interior is beautiful and luxurious, but it’s not a place where you feel like you can take off your muddy boots or sit after a long hard day biking.
All around, this is a terrific vehicle with plenty of room and amenities. However, it isn’t the kind of vehicle you usually take to a campground. It’s a bit to big, expensive, and beautiful.
