Land Rover’s SVO offers bespoke styling tweaks to suit all tastes at a price

Dawdlers in the freeway overtaking lane hastily moved left when they saw us approaching from behind in this dark-themed British SUV, and there’s something distinctly brutish and not-terribly-polite about it. Not that a large brute with 423kW of grumpiness needed any extra “edge”, but if you do wish to go full pimp-my-ride with your sports SUV, Jaguar Land Rover’s Special Vehicle Operations division can get it done.
Along with its custom paint finish, this Range Rover Sport SVR has also been personalised with custom door sill plates etched with the words “Built by Special Vehicle Operations” and circular B-pillar badges etched with “SVO Bespoke” logos, adding a further R46,700 to the price. The test car is one of 27 Range Rovers ordered with several specially-developed paint options by Land Rover SA to showcase how customers can jazz up their rides. The unique hues have all been assigned SA-inspired names such as izi Khaleni Plum, Bantry Blue and Namaqua Orange among others, and this test unit is one of 20 Range Rover Sport SVRs painted in Stimela sa Sebusuku.
