Arden Teases New Range Rover AR5/10


The upcoming Tuning World Bodensee auto show in Germany that runs from May 13 through 16 will see British car specialist Arden taking the wraps off its latest proposal based on the recently facelifted 2010 Range Rover.

The tuner is keeping details about the AR5/10 under a tight lid, but apart from the cosmetic upgrades seen in these teaser photos, buyers should also expect a raft of performance enhancements.

The Emperor's New Range Rover Sport: Hamann's Conqueror II


The blacked-out Range Rover Sport before you is Hamann's Conqueror II. Much like the original Sport-based Conqueror, the package consists of door decals and a slew of body parts (fender extensions, carbon fiber hood, and "diffuser-look" rear apron, among other tidbits) that widen the Sport's stance and also make it appear to be doing its best GT3 impression when viewed from behind.

That center-mounted exhaust is an option, so don't think your Hamann Rover needs to be as over-the-top as this example.

Lowered by 40mm in front and 30mm in back, the Conqueror II also puts out 560 horsepower (+50 over stock) and 685 Nm / 505 lb-ft (+60 Nm / 44 lb-ft over stock) in 5.0-liter supercharged V8 form, or 280 horsepower (+35) and 660Nm / 487 lb-ft (+60 Nm / 44 lb-ft) when equipped with the 3.0 TDV6.

Inside, trim can be had in optional carbon fiber or black anodized aluminum, while no doubt if your pockets run deep enough they could fill the seats with caviar instead of foam if so desired.

Cost of entry for something like the Conqueror II? Probably more than you've got (but if you've got it, avoid those matte-black spiderweb 23-inchers).
