    Making Land Rover Discovery a Turbo Vehicle with Kahn Design

    The Land Rover Discovery is already a fantastic off-roader, but with some alterations from Kahn Design it’s become a luxury turbo-charged wet dream for any discerning petrol head.
    Kahn, who are one of the market leaders in the field of bespoke vehicle design, have outdone themselves in their stylish and restrained additions to Land Rover’s latest model, creating the Discovery Twin Turbo XS-RS300.
    On the outer chassis of this luxury vehicle there is now a RS front grille with 3D mesh and heightened front and rear wheels to give the vehicle more ground clearance, along with LED light strips fitted onto the wheel arches.

    But, the cabin is where the action’s really at, with an astonishing array of bespoke features, including a luxuriant clock bezel surround finished with Swarovski diamonds, for those looking to add a little bit of bling to their drive.


    The inside of the car also features seven seats covered in quilted and perforated leather and a full multimedia entertainment package, which features two six-inch LCD screens, a multi-region DVD player, two infrared sets of headphones, an infrared remote control, and USB and SD card connections.
    It all adds up to an extravagant look in an already impressive vehicle, creating the feeling and style of a car that you really want to be seen riding in.

    The celeb appeal of the Land Rover
    It’s been the case for a while now that the Land Rover brand has moved past the simple pleasures of the Land Rover Discovery 1 in favour of more extravagant affairs that appeal to the affluent as well as the adventurer.

    Indeed, the celebrity appeal of the Land Rover has been on the up and up as of late, with this sturdy and bullish looking vehicle proving the perfect fit for A-list stars such as Brad Pitt, Daniel Craig and Prince William, to name but a few.

    And, it seems that the decade old Kahn have found the ideal way to capitalise upon this, with the bespoke design of the Discovery balancing opulence with practicality at every turn, providing a series of alterations that are subtle and sleek, rather than the garish homespun creations of the boy racer.

    It takes what was already a veritably comfortable ride and turns it into an outright luxurious one, with the standard look and feel of the Discovery amped up to create a masterfully tuned piece of driving kit.
    Coming in at a hefty £54,000, Kahn’s altered version of the vehicle is hardly cheap, but with a series of changes that add both aesthetically and functionally to the standard Discovery, it’s well worth an investment for those looking to make their Land Rover that little more flash.

    • The BMW i4 M50 is quite possibly the best EV we have had the pleasure of testing.

It's superbly comfortable but at the simple touch of a button, it switches from tourer to tornado and you find yourself instantly doing speeds you should not be doing.

While not all EVs will have the same refinement or scintillating performance, this was both relaxing and thrilling to drive.

The Gran Coupé is a handsome car with a sense of sleek length and disguises its hatchback as a booted saloon rear end and that M Portimao Blue metallic paint certainly garnered a lot of positive attention.

Compared with the BMW iX it’s less of a show-stopper, but comes with a much more attractive price tag – and while the i4 is still quite the financial investment (R1,6m) we feel it gives you excellent value in return.

Yes, we did have a few charging issues (Eskom) and if you don't have a Wallbox charger at home filling up with petrol is MUCH easier. However, that being said if you’re looking for an outstanding driving experience both on the twisties and on the highway, this is definitely worth considering if you have decided to make the jump to the electric car.

    • The totally bonkers Ferrari 812 Competizione was spotted in Bryanston today by Brad Ainge.

Priced around R14m depending on spec.

    • Our time has come to an end with the most potent version of Mzansi’s favourite bakkie, the new Toyota Hilux GR-Sport.

The 2.8-litre turbo diesel powerplant has been tweaked to push out 165kW and 550 Nm thanks to an updated ECU which also responsible for the much needed revised mapping of the six-speed auto.

The sporty Hilux gets new monotube shocks as well as stiffer coil springs which make the bakkie a lot more settled at higher speed and provide great feedback on some of the twisty bits. If you don’t have a full load at the back however, you might find it a tad too stiff and rather twitchy for day to day driving. 

Inside you get a load of sporty touches including “carbon fibre” trim pieces but the highlight has to be the race inspired front seats complete with Alcantara inserts and some GR badging on the headrests. 

For the Hilux customers, this is a welcome addition to the range as the exterior and interior aesthetics align very neatly with the GR brand.

Yours from R891,400. Are you picking this or the Legend RS?
