Range Rover Vogue MY08

By George Skentzos | August 22nd, 2007

In 2008 Range Rover will continue the world’s most complete luxury SUV – the Range Rover Vogue.

Headlining the list of changes for the new Range Rover Vogue is the introduction of optional four-zone air conditioning, which enables rear seat passengers to control their individual heating and ventilation.

Now standard across the range is enhanced integrated Bluetooth phone connectivity functions. The system now facilitates Bluetooth phonebook transfer to the audio unit so numbers can be recalled via the vehicle controls and steering wheel.

Buyers will be spoiled for choice with a total of seven real wood veneers to choose from, all sourced from sustainable forests, and additional wood veneer elements have been applied to the rear of the centre console.

On the outside, a new interior colour becomes available, called Storm, as well as two new exterior colours, Alaska White and Lucerne Green, and a fresh set of “designers’ choices” for recommended interior and exterior combinations.

For the 08MY Range Rover Vogue pricing remains unchanged for the Supercharged, however the TDV8 & TDV8 Luxury models both gain minimal price increases:

Range Rover Vogue 08MY recommended retail pricing:

TDV8	$142,900
TDV8 Luxury	$166,900
Supercharged	$185,900

Now here’s a vehicle totally without style.

I mean, look at the outside – straight lines everywhere, and the dash is a plank under the windscreen.

Rubbish.

I agree looks like a box of crap!

errr….. what did you expect? It’s still a 4X4, remember.

I think that this is a great, classic car. Not a fashion-style vehicle …
Austin

you all have no idea what your talking about, i own a 2004 land rover range rover, and its the utmost beautiful, reliable, stylish car i have ever owned

I must agree with Pressemeldungen and Austin. This is a fascinating vehicle which is superbly designed and has unbelievable off-road abilities (I have checked that myself, and the only car better than it is the Lada Niva, but that one isn’t nearly as beautiful and stylish as the Range Rover). P.S. Judging by your language (box of crap) I see you have no clue about elegance and class (which is the creed of the Range Rover).

J.J.V.O. is right (despite the fact he seems like a snob). I think he’s totaly right.

I don’t believe the top picture is of a ’08 supercharged. The reason being the grills are out of date. That Range Rover looks more like an earlier model. The interior shots are correct though. I think they are quite stunning 4WD’s.
Steven

The only thing I could find wrong with the 08 supercharged was the fact that, about a week after i recieved it in Australia the touch screen continually shut itself off and on, leaving you unable to operate satnav, cd’s or any other function it is supposed to perform. Very ordinary considering…

Steven, considering the Vogue uses the same navigation system as the Lexus range of cars I think it is unfair to blame Land Rover for the error (no manufacturer make their own navigation system).
Also, the picture is of a TDV8 Luxury. It has the stadard 3 bar grille with standard power vents, green badging (as opposed to the Supercharged cars black badging), 20″ 7 Spoke wheels (supercharged has 9 Spoke, “non luxury” has 19″s). All superficial and if these are all of interest then the “MTV” Supercharged car is for you. The TDV8 remains the absolute pick of the range (no pun intended) though!

Reckless1 is one of this people that enoys posting negative comments, as he/she has done on other sites. You could give him/her what ever they want and would still complain.
Bottom line from a Range Rover Sport TDV8 owner – the vehicle is superb. Just out of curosity Reckless1 have you ever been up close to the new RR models, or are speaking from a wider perspective, ie uninformed ignornance

I thing the Range, spetially the V8 Vogue ROCKS!!!!!!!!
It`s the most stylish midsize luxury in the market (excluding the asweome Q7), it`s interior has an amazing, classic, british, “I`m rich, this is my expensive car” style.

You guys don`t have any idea the kind of shit is going out of your mouth

The Range`s boxy exterior styling is because this is a classic luxury SUV, so it MUST look somewhat “squared”, it`s a part of it`s charming, you ignorant.

Thank-god they have kept design changes exterioly to a minimum and once again added a smoother more luxurious finish to the cabin via new and more extensive wood veneer & leather choices as those that were present in the 2nd Generation Range Rover between 1995-2001.

At first i thought “Vogue” was stupid seemingly as that has always been reserved for the top of the line V8 Petrol model but seeming as though the new Sport is here it’s fitting in order to make sure model designation is retained. Range Rover Vogues are completely classic & the only true Luxury off road vehicle on the road. No other vehicle offers such a good ride & all-terrain capability as the Range Rover. It’s classic look such as the bold straight lines & floating roof also allow it to hold resale values as it’s very hard to distinguish a 6 year old Rangie from a new one.

Truly a great car to tow the boat, along with your mates & dog in the back

Look, for all the people out there who are totally infatuated with the Range Rover.

I have to agree it is a stunningly beautiful car, excellent off-road vehicle and a symbol of style and class.

However, the Range Rover has one major flaw. The Range Rover hugely lacks reliability. I am not a car engineer so I cannot give accurate reasons why (over-complication, the fact that the Range Rover has been “tossed” around manufacturing companies). I personally have owned 2 modern Range Rovers and I am not a “rev-head” or “lead foot”.

Shortly after my purchase of these two vehicles there were several minor electrical problems and also a battery lead caught fire in one of them. Once only a moderate amount of miles was racked up there were major problems such as diff’s, Gearbox(which had to be replaced) and drive shaft bearings.

I now just own my 1954 series 1 Land Rover, which in my opinion is far more reliable than the Range Rover

And by the way;

The Range Rovers I owned included:

A 2004 Range Rover HSE, Diesel and
A 2007 ” ” Vogue, ” .

If your ostentatious I recommend this car for you. If you are “rich” but practical, I do not.
