2014 Range Rover Sport dynamic debut at Goodwood Festival of Speed

The new Range Rover Sport (pictured) makes its dynamic debut at Goodwood FoS

It feels like the 2014 Range Rover Sport has been with us for quite a while already, but apart from it’s brief sojourn through New York in the hands of James Bond, it’s not really be seen in action in public. At least not in the UK.

The new RRS has been seen strutting its on-road prowess at the Pikes Peak hillcimb in the States, but next weekend visitors to the Goodwood Festival of Speed will get to see the new Sport as it tackles the hillclimb to demonstrate that it has not just shiny off-road credentials, but impressive on-road ones too. And the new Sport’s public dynamic debut isn’t the only Land Rover goodness going on at Goodwood this year.

This year’s Land Rover stand at Goodwood is the firm’s biggest ever, and their off-road course gets integrated with the stand this year too, so the RRS (and other LR vehicles) will be strutting their off-road prowess too.

There’s also a celebration of the Race2Recovery team’s success in the Dakar rally, with talks from Captain Tony Harris and Barney Gillespie, a children’s radio controlled off-road course with mini Race2Recovery Wildcats and demonstration drives in the Bowler EXR.

JLR’s MD, Jeremy Hicks, said:

The Goodwood Festival of Speed is a stand-out fixture in our annual calendar of events, and with Land Rover’s largest stand-to-date we have so much to offer customers from the off-road experience in the All-New Range Rover Sport to the inspirational Race2Recovery talks.

Added to our award-winning line up of all-terrain vehicles on display and something for the whole family, we very much look forward to welcoming customers and visitors to Goodwood on the Land Rover stand.

And if you’re off to the FoS – and you’re a Land Rover or Range Rover owner – you can flash tour ket=y fob to get admission to Land Rover’s owners area for some freebie refreshments.
