On my 2008 White Range Rover Sport HSE with White leather and same color wood as you, I added a front and rear camera, Naviks so I could mirror anything that's on my phone on to the existing screen, added a 19" flip down screen behind the sunroof, anything on my phone mirrors on to both screens with a toggle switch, dvd player under the back seat, tinted the windows limo in the back and a couple shades lighter in the fronts, custom mesh screens for the rear windows that are held in by magnet's, Oracle logo lights for all 4 doors which I had professionally installed with drilled holes, side signal lights I switched to clear and chrome bulbs so you couldn't see the bulbs, I painted the back grey strip white, added chrome exhaust tips, 22" audiobiography hyper silver rims with the floating center caps so the name stays level just like they have on the Rolls Royce and Bentley's, Switched out all the green and gold badges to black and silver on the inside doors and steering wheel and also the front and back on the outside, Black sheepskin seatbelt covers, center console and front seat arms rests and back seat middle arm rest.. I was visiting a friend in Texas and was having a private owned one same color etc looked at for $350 to make sure it didn't need anything major at the jaguar, landrover dealership and while I was killing time I walked around there lot and saw the same one in the Auction section.. talked them down to $9000.. The one I was having checked out, the guy was asking $15,000 and he had tan leather vs. the white and his had issues.. I had it shipped to Minnesota for $750 and the rest is history🤘I absolutely Love mine! Before I purchased this I owned a 94 740i Bmw and added curtains and a bunch of mods.. Last year they had that classic front end.. I still own it👍 I would love to know what u ended up doing to ur Rover for mods and if u had to put a lot of money in maintenance? Mine still only has 84,000 miles on it👍 Kind of scared things might start to go wrong with it and will cost me a Fortune in bills and maybe I should sell it.😁 Let me know how many miles u put on urs and how urs is holding up. I'd appreciate it🙌
Juat bought myself an L320, so will be. great to see what you get up to. Just bought the indicator lights too. But think ill pass on the projectors lol
Oh.. also changed all my interior bulbs to led🤪I was reading up on the landrover forums how to remove those ugly airbag stickers in the visors, it said to use a hairdryer and a needle nose pliers to do it.. Saw a guy do it on video👍
you just reinspired me to get my dream car the same model !!!! people use to give me fake coments about the car
Bought those same projector lights for my car. They’re not meant for the sport, or any version that only has in word facing door lights. If your interior lights are not facing down words originally it will project poorly as I have that problem with my rear passenger doors. Works amazingly with the front 2 though beautiful color at night time as well would recommend.
This video was hilarious your great bro
Thank you for making this video & showing all your very cool mods. Im inspired to not only feel more confident about buying a used rover, but customizing it my self as you make it look easy with supplies , tools, and internet to aid me. Great video !!
Thank you so much for this nice comment. I really appreciate it! I hope you go out and find an awesome Range Rover. We also have a video on the channel that goes over things to look for in buying a used car, hopefully It can help!
I just brought the same one same color and all. Nice pick
Do you have problems with side marker turn signal after install ? Do they have to be programed
I'm planning on getting me one really soon.
It would be really great to have GREEN under lights. Travelling green - Man! These used to be all the rage in the 70s only they had them blue to scare the dealers. Gpx
I got the same turn indicators they look sick
Ty for your support , love my 2010 Rover Sports but still debating on whether to get rid of it cuz of high maintenance and yes call me crazy it’s not my 1st rover
How much to fill up the tank? What are other maintenance costs
@@jesus1sl0rd56 I have the 2.7l and its £100 for a full tank, gets you about 360 miles range.
It's been a year. How's the car running?
I bought a 2008 Range Rover sport non supercharged for $500, only thing wrong with it was the starter, had it rebuilt for $40 life is good 👍
Did you say you bought a RR for $500 or $5,000?
I just found one same year for $1500. Bad battery lol
How much was the detail job?
Should have got the 2010 to 2013 hse Face lift model !
How much was the detail
Hey can you link where you brought this stuff
They are timeless as I’ll drive any year if it looks taken care of.
How's the rover doing
I'd suggest getting new those iconic range river rims
I have 2008 hse I went with muffler delete they sound amazing the 4.4
Ok I have a 2010 VW Jetta with the 5 cylinder. Super reliable and paid off. But the dream in a 2008 RR or RR sport... but the reliability is the worrisome part. Have to keep the Jetta JUST in case. Is this your only whip?
That's a good plan, the Jetta is much more practical when you just need to go to the grocery store or something. As far as reliability goes I believe the range rover can be a great car as long as you are knowledgeable about it. I watch a whole lot of videos and read a whole lot of forums about my 2008 RRS. And yeah, This is my only car!
Thinking of buying one of these tdV6 Range Rovers instead of a pick up. How dope is that terrible idea? Cause pick up trucks are mad expensive and RRS’s are half the price.
Tibo here : Diesel engine is very strong. My dad actually has one in France and it’s awesome. Now you have to drive it on the freeway and have a kind of a commute. It’s not made for only city driving
How’s it holding up?
I subbed also👍🏼
I enjoyed your video! I have the exact same one.. 2008 Range Rover Sport HSE in white with the white leather seats.. I have a question about the Logo door lights you installed.. The light housing is facing outward instead of down like the 2010 or above model, How did u get it to face the ground? Are the lights adjustable? I purchased the same ones and they face the seats when I open the door.. Let me know.. Thanks!🤘
How’s it holding up?
@@idknotsure it's holding up great! I continue to add custom to it. I just added a 12.1 inch android tablet to replace the stereo and navigation screen, custom diamond mats etc.
Might get me one but I'm scared
I appreciate the ideas u like myself purchased a sport. It is a 2009 supercharged. Looks pretty and I like it as much as the HSE 2008 I bought 6 months earlier. They both look really fugging pretty side by side and shit in photos and videos and right there in person. I got the HSE $8000 out the door. $1600 @ 2 months replace the air sus with springs. $1600 transmission switch Solenoid and 4 new tires from United tire $280 plus install $80 + I tip big $40 among the 4 guys the shop had do the switch. Mother fuckers put a jack on each side and lifted up balanced on 1 tire while they did three then the 1… it was fun to watch from the drivers seat with ac on and hit my blunt. I’m driving a $100k car when new but I’m only $12500 into it. I was so delighted I got a supercharged sport 2009 in mint condition $12k a month ago. I can’t wait to have to go to work just so I can drive in style. People think I’m the boss because my ride/s be range rovers in mint condition. You really feel like you’re driving a Ferrari as eyes stare and heads turn nonstop for these babies.
How many miles did ur car havr when u bought it?
Only 66,000!
Transmission rebuild every 80,000 miles 😭mines being done now 👍
Those stock bulbs are no joke, they get hot. I’ve replaced all my interior lights with LED.
I got the same year and make model, I can send you some pictures of my Range Rover, I get do many compliments…
How’s it holding up?
Do you ever feel like your Range Rover is going to tip over when turning?
Maybe I’m just turning to fast 😭😂
Haha I definitely take my turns slower in the the range than my z4!!
I couldn't take this video because the camera was all in his face the whole time
I doubt you made a mistake.
