When Your Sport Just Isn’t Sporty Enough

Here’s a couple of examples of what happens when you take a Range Rover Sport to the extreme. Love ‘em or hate ‘em, you have to appreciate the enthusiasm.

Heidl, the legendary German tuning house, has officially released the new Range Rover Sport based Heidl Different, which no one will mistake for a factory model. The supercharged engine has been modified to 4.8-liters and now produces an astounding 540hp. A 2-stage body kit is available that also includes a 4-pipe exhaust system and some cool LEDs have been integrated into the new front bumper. 0-60 takes only 6.6 seconds in this baby and the top speed is electronically limited to 155mph. Those are 22-inch wheels you’re looking at, and all this can be yours for a firmly set price of 155,140 euros.

Or…you may select the groundbreaking Kahn Cosworth Sport 300 complete with the F1 number plate.  This will debut at Britain’s
MPH show and will showcase this British tuning house’s commitment to its own kind.

The flamboyant C.E.O of Project Kahn commented: "Over the past year, we developed a number of prototypes and sent teasers out in the press in order to measure reaction and we promptly compiled all the relevant data and we believe we have come back with an absolutely inspirational product. We have taken heed of what our customers and media pundits have made of all Cosworth prototypes and I believe that we have answered with vigor."

Tim Routsis, CEO and Managing Director of the Cosworth Group, commented: "over the last three years the engine tuner market has become very important for Cosworth, we have successfully steered our products and services towards high end users. We are confident, that in partnership with Kahn Design, select consumers will be delighted to own distinctively styled cars with Cosworth tuned engines."

Yes, by all means. More vigor. That’s what’s wanted around here!
