Euro Motors staged an exclusive drive event in Bahrain for journalists in collaboration with professional drivers and technicians from the Land Rover regional office in Dubai alongside Philippe Leclercq, marketing manager of Euro Motors.

The full day programme involved both on-road and off-road experiences with the LR2, LR4, Range Rover and Range Rover Sport. The group put the cars to the test around the Banyan Tree, the Bahrain International Circuit's 4x4 test track, around the Royal Golf Club and across the desert. GulfWeekly Editor Stan Szecowka sampled the Range Rover Sport, Land Rover's definitive luxury sports tourer with Radio Bahrain's senior sports presenter David Bloomer following a lunch break on board a yacht docked at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel & Spa.

Range Rover Sport is available with a powerful V6 diesel engine (TDV6), V8 diesel engine (TDV8) and supercharged V8 Petrol engine. It features proportional variable ratio steering and six-speed automatic transmission and a contemporary cockpit interior with various leather and wood options.

The classy ride is available priced between BD30,000-37,000 depending on model of choice. Contact 17750750 for further details.
