Dubbed as one of “world’s most recognizable four-wheel drive vehicles”, this SUV has Santorini Black exterior paint scheme and features a lot of luxurious amenities like the 17-piece wide wheel arch kit. And here are the details:

    Exterior

    This particular Range Rover Vogue now features outwards extended RS front and rear wheel arches as well as integrated air dams with ventilation. They serve in terms to keep the brakes cool. Since there has been enlargement, the necessities are bigger wheels, which are of the dimension of 22-inches and come in Silver Platinum. They have been fitted with 275/40/22 tyres, behind which we see the black painted brake calipers.

It now includes stainless steel entry sill plates and 3D Modular front and rear seats trimmed in perforated black leather. The same material has been used for the wrapping of the steering wheel and centre console fascia. In addition, drivers will also benefit from machined and vented aluminium pedals.

  • Kahn Previews Stylish Range Rover Vogue RS650 Edition

    Kahn Range Rover Vogue RS650 Edition Front and Side ViewKahn Range Rover Vogue RS650 Edition is here! We were missing these guys since there was nothing new around them for a (short) while. However, this project shows their expertise and in fact it is a good example of a good tuning. The Land Rover has been changed both inside and outside, and this is basically what the tuners have done:

    Better Exterior

    We have seen many exterior tunings: some of them were very good, and some were disastrous. Here, the RS-650 can be attributed to the first group. The exclusive styling package is mostly made of carbon fiber.

    Black Kirsch over Madeira Red is the main color of the pack and it features the following: carbon fiber front and rear bumpers, which feature a lot of detailing, outwards extended front and rear RS600 wheel arches with integrated air dams, glossy Piano Black floating roof, carbon side vents, tailgate strip, and front chin spoiler. By the way, the new front bumper perfectly integrates the factory fog lights.

    What else is up front? We’ve forgotten to mention the unique 3-D mesh on each air intake and the new LE front grille complete with a 3D mesh floating insert. The changes at the back include RS-650 Edition roof and trunk lid spoiler. RS650 quad stainless steel cross-hair exhaust outlets protrude from the rear bumper.

    The wheels here come in matt black and measure 23-inches, while the tires are of the dimension 305x30x23. Behind them we see painted brake callipers providing a great contrast to the black.

    Interior

    This Range Rover RS-650 Edition features one of the best interiors we have seen so far. First and foremost, the color for the upholstery is Burnt Orange and we definitely think that it makes the atmosphere in the cabin unmatchable. The material used was Kahn Bridge of Weir Leather.

    Upholstery was also delivered to the door tops, door arm rests, centre console, instrument binnacle, and steering wheel centre. Stainless steel door entry sill plates and the machined aluminium foot pedals give a sense of classiness.

  • Range Rover LE Signature Edition Gets Kahn Treatment

    Kahn Range Rover LE Signature Edition Front View It is Friday and it is time for the latest project by the talented British tuners at Kahn Design. This time they have chosen the Range Rover 3.0 TDV6 Vogue LE and given it more prestigious looks. Although the car exudes confidence and style in every aspect, after the treatment of the experts it is more luxurious than ever.

    This time they have kept it simple and have added only an upgrade package and new wheels. The transformation began with the installation of some new carbon fiber parts. The 600LE carbon composite front and rear bumper have replaced the standard ones.

    At the front, on top of the lightweight bumper we see a new grille with 3-D mesh. At the opposite side, there is Kahn’s stainless steel quad cross-hair exhaust system which features aluminium tips. Both sides of the Land Rover got Kahn branding for more exclusivity and individuality.

    At last, the factory wheel and tire setup has been replaced. This Range Rover Vogue has received 9.5″ x 22″ Silver Platinum RS600 alloys on all four corners. They have been treated gently by 285/35/22″ tyres and new brake callipers behind them.

    The interior received very minimal attention this time. We only see special new Kahn aluminium foot pedals that look absolutely fantastic.

  • Kahn Range Rover Vogue 600-LE Bathes in Volcanic Rock Satin

    Kahn-Range-Rover-Vogue-600-LE-THUMBA. Kahn Design has entered on the market an extreme project featuring striking styling and stance. We are talking about the custom Volcanic Rock Satin Range Rover 3.0 TDV6 Vogue 600-LE by Project Kahn. Besides the emblematic comfort and tailored elegance which is inherent in all of tuning company’s interior tunings, this Range Rover have been given new exterior upgrades such as the  Volcanic Rock Satin paint scheme.

    Let’s start with the floating black roof, which sits atop the vehicle and extends towards the rear. This was made possible due to the addition of a new wing with an extended lip spoiler that also delivers improved down force.

    In addition, the custom front bumper includes a floating carbon fibre section, which sits below the new three-dimensional mesh, floating insert and body coloured surround. The lightweight element is also used for the side vents, while the body colour is to be found on the door handles.

    Kahn enamel wing shields, privacy-tinted glass, 600-LE bumper with integrated exhaust diffuser, 600-LE cross hair quad rear tailpipes and finishers in black must also be mentioned. Of course, Kahn lettering is positioned above the more dynamic rear bumper and the lower boot lid spoiler to show who’s responsible for the beautification of the Vogue.

    Speaking about tuning we surely must include the wheels, which in this case are a new set of RS-2 wheels in the size of 9.5″ x 23″ fitted with 285x35x22″ tyres. Behind the Gloss Black RS-2 wheels one can see gold-painted callipers.

    The interior is adorned by perforated black leather. In fact, the 3-D modular front and rear seats are fitted with the soft material as well as the centre glove box, door cards, arm rests and steering wheel centre in Nappa leather. Stainless steel sill plates and vented foot pedals in machined aluminium is what rounds out this sporty 600-LE Luxury Edition SUV.

  • Prior Design Range Rover Body Kit

    PD-Land-Rover-Range-Rover-2005-kit-thumbAncient gods need accessories as well. That’s why we’ve got news from Prior Design for they have given the iconic Range Rover (2002-2005) a makeover. We are talking about nothing more drastic than a simple body kit but that’s what Prior do and they do it best.

    It really is simple – a front bumper, side skirts and a rear bumper. The overall kit does make the Range Rover loose its off-road appeal but since when SUV’s have been for dirt roads? Today, it’s all about the urban look – a sense of security on the rough asphalt, the elevated stance in a traffic jam, the mind-boggling gas station receipt (wait… that’s not a plus). Anyway. Prior have given this particular Range Rover something that will make it stand out from the other icons and there are a lot of them.

    Back in the days, these Range Rovers used Jaguar derived V8 engines which, at best, had 5.0-liters of displacement, 503 hp and 625 Nm of Torque – so not that ancient after all. They were, and still are the ultimate statement of clout.

    All Prior Design products are made from a Dura-Flex FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) material – sturdy, flexible and paint-friendly. The whole package will set you back with around 2,280 Euros ($2,971)

  • Range Rover 10th Anniversary Editions

    Range-Rover-Westminster-TDV8-thumbIt has been ten years now since the third generation of Range Rovers was introduced by Land Rover, and to this day, these emblematic SUV’s still dominate the world of luxury, performance and style. To celebrate that fact, the company has released three new editions that further reinforce that superiority – welcome to the TDV8 Westminster, TDV8 Autobiography and Supercharged Autobiography.

    Westminster Edition

    The Westminster acts as a replacement for the Land Rovers Vogue and Vogue SE. It is a specification that goes further with even more comfort and convenience as standard. A Westminster can be recognized by a set of exterior features such as the front grille and side vents which are finished in bright “Noble” while the lower splitter bar and fog lamp bezels are in ‘Titan’ silver. 20-inch, 10-spoke alloy wheels bare the weight of the ‘Westminster’ badge riddled body of the vehicle. Inside, one would find that the tread plates are illuminated in order to complement the feast of luxury that is the interior of the Westminster – Grand Black lacquer trim elements and luxury carpets complete with bright-finished pedal finishers. Range Rover’s innovative Dual View infotainment screen redefines interactivity. Depending on the angle of looking at the screen, people can observe different things on the same monitor at the same time. The front seats can be either heated or cooled electronically which can probably be quite energy consuming. However, that worry fades against the fact that the entertainment system alone comprises of 19 speakers – 1200 Watts of power coming from the harman/kardon LOGIC7 surround sound system.

    Power comes from a 4.4 TDV8 engine while an 8-speed automatic gearbox takes care of the smooth delivery. The end result is a 309 hp powerhouse that has the a torque figure of 700 N·m (516lb·ft).

    Exterior finishes are in a choice of seven with five interior ones as a combination. Equipment is abundant with thing such as: electric sunroof, automatic headlights and windscreen wipers, Park Distance Control with rear-view camera, memory setting for the steering wheel, driver’s seat and rear-view mirror and a heated, leather trimmed steering wheel.

    TDV8 Autobiography and Supercharged Autobiography

    The Autobiography editions share features with the Westminster plus even more exclusivity: The Bumpers are new and integrated stainless steel ornaments the exhaust finishers and side skirts. The 20-inch alloy wheels are in Shadow Chrome. Inside, the rear seats have a recline and lumber adjust function, electric heated/cooling and aircraft-style headrests with wings for added support. Other than that, the Autobiography versions have the same grille and side vents finishes as the Westminster’s, the same illuminated treadplates and the same rocking LOGIC7 surround sound system. The 4.4 TDV8 Engine is also used in the Autobiography but in the Supercharged Autobiography a 5.0-litre LR-V8 petrol unit seems more appropriate (503hp).

    To round things up, the Westminster offers more luxury and equipment than the former Vogue and Vogue SE for the price of £69,995 ($110 704). Topping the exclusivity scale however are the TDV8 Autobiography and the Supercharged Autobiography which cost £84,295 ($133 321) and £86,895 (137 433) respectively
