I've bought a RR and am finding the driving experience rather scary.
Obviously I've read the handbook which helpfully states it wont handle like a sports car, but it does remind me of my old 911...
I find a very unnerving sensation of the back end sliding on a wet road, even at very modest speeds - of it following the front round the corner but not 'as one' - it honestly feels like its going to let go and oversteer spectacularly.
Is this how big 4x4s drive, as a function of them being driven by all wheels, or due to the sheer length of the car in that the front is going straight but the rear is still in the corner? I've checked tyre pressures etc.
I have lost the back end once already (wet road, bend, opposite camber) so have found the limit, but this feeling is common in more normal circumstances.
I figured some folks on here have Rangies and also know how to compare with powerful rear wheel sports cars - any input appreciated, thank you
