The record
The EXR S shared the EXR's hydroformed Range Rover Sport chassis, MSA-approved cage and composite panels, and took the supercharged 5.0-litre V8 at 550 bhp with a six-speed ZF automatic and permanent 50/50 four-wheel drive; 0–60 mph took 4.2 seconds and top speed was limited to 155 mph. It had double wishbones, Bilstein dampers and Eibach springs, Brembo six-piston front brakes, climate control and leather seats. It was priced at £155,000 at its Goodwood debut in June 2012; a 3.0-litre V6 diesel was also listed. DK Engineering puts the run at six cars, three of them right-hand drive.
