    Meet the all-new Range Rover Sport SV!
    The most powerful Range Rover ever created is finally here, and Mat’s about to see if it’s worth the £169,000+ price tag!
    Starting off with the design, this thing is absolutely plastered in carbon fibre! There’s a carbon fibre bonnet, and carbon vents across most of the front end. There’s also an updated bumper and splitter compared to the standard Range Rover. The car also comes with optional carbon fibre alloys and a little side skirt along the car. Around the back, you’ll find quad tailpipes, but all-in-all the car still pairs elegance with sporty styling well.
    Step inside and the SV is just as luxurious as the regular Range Rover. There’s leather throughout the cabin, as well as Alcantara on the roof lining. The SV also comes with carbon fibre-backed sports seats as well as a ceramic gear selector, and of course all of the usual luxuries like a fridge in the centre console and soft-close doors.
    Under the bonnet, the 5-litre supercharged V8 has been swapped for BMW’s glorious 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 - the same V8 from the M5 CS, no less! As a result the SV now puts down 635hp and 750Nm of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and the car can hit 60mph in just 3.6 seconds.
    So it’s super powerful and super fun to drive - but it costs an incredible £169,000! So is it worth it? You’ll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!

      Evil but clever. Thieves get a nice Range, don’t get the harsh punishments from the Gov, Range Rover Corporate helps them bypass the security systems and get’s to sell another one and you’d think the insurance companies would be stuck footing the bill but of course not, that gets presented to the owners via higher premiums. Honestly I don’t even think any of them wants anything to change. One way or another it’s the owner who get’s shafted at every turn.

      They are fitting the latest UWB security system to older models. Only 11 cars have been stolen with that fitted because the keyless theft method doesn't work. The problem is there are thousands of older vehicles not upgraded.

Thats why he said how much tax a company would have to pay, he doesnt say that for a corsa. This 500 edition is actually aimed at fleet buyers, they probably counted there are 500 companies in the uk buying lets say more than 10 range rover each, this will be offered to them as a thanks. If any of them dont want them, they will then be offered to footballers etc. So don't really worry about these people and dont aspire to be them, they are all scum.

    • @WSKRBSCT
      @WSKRBSCT 4 месяца назад +6

      Put yourself in their shoes: you know there is a high likelihood that a very expensive vehicle will get stolen; if it is your money, do you put it there or with a different vehicle? I know what your answer is, so I am not sure why you feel that they should do it.
      Additionally, as pointed out by someone else in this thread, if one gets stolen, they need to sell more than fifty £2K policies without any losses in order to just break even. The number would really be closer to sixty because about 20% of premium goes to operating expenses.

    • @WSKRBSCT
      @WSKRBSCT 4 месяца назад

      ​​@@aiexielplays8028 Do yourself a favor and look into insurers' loss ratios. I cannot speak for the UK, but in the US combined ratio (loss ratio plus expenses) was 111.8 in 2022. That means that for every dollar in premium they paid out nearly $1.12. I ask you: is that making a killing?
      Just because you had no losses does not mean lots others did not. The whole basis of insurance is spread of risk, where the losses of the few are paid for by the premiums of the many who do not have losses. It is a calculated risk where you are betting you'll have a loss and they are betting that you won't.
      You can always feel free to self-insure - at least you can in the US. But, you had better believe that you need to have sufficient cash on hand to pay losses out of pocket, pay attorneys, pay adjusters, etc. when loss time comes around. And, even if you do have that kind of money, do you want to take that chance?

    They have been bumping up the insurance on my Focus due to keyless theft. My car doesn't even have keyless entry, only keyless start; yet it still affects it the insurance. On top of that my insurer has tried justifying nearly doubling my premium over a year due to "inflation". I understand that insurance prices are rising, but you cannot blame inflation for nearly doubling my annual premium.

    Good grief insurance is expensive in the UK!! I only pay around £450 pounds per year for third party, full comp for my Discovery 5 and that also includes insurance for riding bicycles (as is now mandatory here in Japan). It is true that we have compulsory insurance and optional insurance here. The compulsory insurance is paid at the time of the bi-annual M.O.T. to the Land Transport Bureau and is about £270 (covers 2 years) but is insufficient cover, hence almost everyone gets optional insurance on top. It is still way less than a £1000 pounds per year. As for Land Rover's insurance, it is administered and provided by Wrisk Transfer Limited who also do insurance for BMW and Volvo etc.. It makes sense that Land Rover are also therefore refusing to insure vehicles of people living in certain high risk areas. The only way that Land Rover can fully offer all customers insurance is if they set up their own subsidiary insurance company. Even then it isn't that simple as all insurance companies will themselves take out insurance with reinsurance companies such as Lloyds, Swiss Re and Transatlantic Reinsurance Company etc. which will have limits on the amount of risk they are willing to undertake.
