NEW 626bhp Range Rover Sport SV Gets BMW M5 Power

SV replaces SVR. With the loss of a letter comes a gain in image. This isn’t the brash, boisterous car it once was. The hottest Range Rover Sport has been civilised. But don’t for one second think that it’s boring. The headline is still its whacking great V8, only this one’s been pilfered from the latest M5. Yep, this Range Rover is now packing BMW twin-turbo V8 power – 626bhp and 590lb-ft of it – allowing the 0-62mph time to fall by almost a second to 3.8s. But that’s not all. Technology has been liberally applied here – chief among which is JLR’s ‘6D Dynamics’: cross-linked hydraulic dampers that pump fluid around at huge pressure to resist not just roll, but compression under pitch and dive. No other fast SUV has this level of chassis tech. So, what else is there to know? And how does it all work? Join TG’s Ollie Marriage on a rather wet, and drifty journey into the unknown.

On the trail of the Bentley Boys in the Bentley Blue Train
  • In 1930, Bentley Boy Woolf Barnato bet £100 that he could race the famous Le Train Bleu from Cannes to London before the train could reach Calais. 83 years on, Steve Cropley tells the story. In January 1930 Rover claimed its Light Six had gone faster the Le Train Bleu, one of the world's most luxurious trains, which ran from Cannes in the south of France to Calais in the north. One evening at dinner, Bentley Boy Woofe Barnato said that was nothing special, and he could race the Blue Train, reach Calais, cross the English Channel and reach the Conservative Club in London before the train arrived in Calais. He succeeded with four minutes to spare. Here, Steve Cropley retraces the Bentley Boys' London haunts in the very car than Barnato made the journey.

Onboard the ultimate Lancia Stratos HF rally replica
  • Published: 8th July 2021. Welcome to Late Brake Show Car Caves, where Jonny explores private car garages and drives one of the vehicles in the collection. This time it is the Lister Bell STR - or better known as the 1970s Lancia Stratos replica rally car. The car was featured in episode 3 of this Car Caves, where Kevin Johnson - aka Miura Man - opens the doors on his characterful Bedfordshire barn conversion full of heavenly mid-engined supercars. Thanks for stopping by The Late Brake Show. Climb onboard the ultimate Lancia Stratos rally replica - volume up for this one! This private tour was of huge interest, because Kevin (originally from Wales) owns the kind of supercars normally associated with vast collections. He is not a collector - he is a supercar driver. Kevin can afford an original Stratos, but he chose to buy an LB Specialist Cars STR instead. Jonny drives it to see what the fuss is about. The Car Caves playlist is proudly supported by EBC Brakes.
