The Range Rover eschews modern slit windows for vast areas of glass, benefitting both style and vision. The window aperture tapers slightly heading aft, as do the lower extremities but this retains traditional Range Rover proportions and characteristics favored from the Louvre to London and Dubai to the desert. After an hour of basking in broad comfortable chairs with a superb view, soaking up the serene environment disturbed only by the radio and smitten by the Rover’s ability to maintain that civility regardless of outside influence, two of my previously very practical friends were already shopping lightly used Range Rovers. It seems to have that effect on people, though I can’t say if it’s the view, the sound, the cradling seats, how all the metal bits appear milled from a block or the wood cut from a plank. There’s a feeling of being unconstrained herein, and by simply steering and pushing the right button you’ll just drive right through whatever nature throws at you.
