I first saw it on BBC "Top Gear".Jeremy Clarkson wasted no time in informing the public that the guns cost more than the vehicle. :D

This, friends, is how one rolls. Behold the Holland & Holland Range Rover by Overfinch, a joint effort between the gunmaker, Land Rover's bespokery and, well, Bacchus. One hundred tweed-wearing pheasant slayers will have the opportunity to drive this sybaritic super sled to the hunting grounds. Frankly, one wonders why anyone would ever bother leaving the SUV. This ultimate Range Rover is outfitted with a gorgeous, custom-integrated gun cabinet, a cavernous backseat console/fridge, and a liquor cabinet nicer than anything you'd find in Don Draper's office. Our favorite feature? Well, the liquor itself is "self-replenishing," meaning that for the first year of ownership, Holland & Holland Rangie owners will have the vehicle's booze supply refilled automatically. Think of it like bottled water home delivery, only with single-malt scotch, small-batch gin, and other fine adult refreshments.

Naturally, all the interior trim is customized to match the cabinetry, which, in turn, can be made to match the customer's Holland & Holland firearms. The paint colors offered are exclusive to this model, of course, and the exterior is dolled up with unique trim and wheels as well. Aspiring Limey ballers take note -- you can even swap the standard dubs with off-road rubber for a pavement-only 22" wheel/tire package as well. The whole thing is deliciously ostentatious and wonderful. Power comes from either the blown 503-horse gasoline V8 or the diesel TDV8. It should come as zero surprise that this sort of exclusivity carries a dear price, so bring money. The H&H Range Rover will set you back at least £120K or $200K. Not that that'll be a problem for the target audience. For more, check out the PR after the jump.

I would buy the H and H guns ( 8) ) But my cousin wanted to buy a Range Rover the Lexus salesman said he would rather recommend Suburban ( GM) over the Rover. It doesnt have good rating in US..I would include Suburban or Land Cruiser here

The H&Hs will always be worth money. A good chunk of the value of the Range Rover disappears as soon as a signature is affixed to the contract. 20 years from now, the Range Rover will be sitting in some scrap heap, a home for various strays, but those H&Hs will still occupy a pampered place in some home.

I have to say, I'd take one H&H and a Nano, rather than the Range Rover...

But that's just me!

It would be nice to be able to afford something like that. I'm afraid, though, that it isn't going to happen to me in my lifetime. :(
