- Mike Lockley Features Staff

THE world’s most luxurious Range Rover, worth well over £200,000, has been handed to the boss of a Warwickshi­re polo club.

Dr Dallas Burston, owner of Southam’s Dallas Burston Polo Club, has taken possession of a bespoke vehicle that even comes with its own champagne flutes.

He worked with Solihull dealership Listers Land Rover and Jaguar Land Rover’s Special Vehicle Operations Division on the specifics himself. It is, he says, one of a kind, unmatched anywhere in the world.

The highly personalis­ed 5-litre V8 supercharg­ed Range Rover Autobiogra­phy LWB features:

Hand-engraved door handles and matching letter box dashboard.

Polo illuminate­d black treadplate­s.

Bespoke duotone paintwork. The roof is red, the lower body bronze.

Champagne flutes featuring Dal- las Burston’s Polo club official logo.

Major Carney, director of operations for the Dallas Burston Group, said: “Dr Burston owns a wide collection of cars from classic to modern day.

“When the chance to work with the Special Vehicles division came up, it was a unique opportunit­y.

“We have designed a vehicle for the Dallas Burston Polo Club which itself has not only been rebranded, but is also undergoing a multi-millionpou­nd developmen­t project to build hotels and leisure facilities at its Warwickshi­re site.

“This project provided the perfect blank canvas to create something unique and unrivalled to take out and promote the club. The whole project was incredibly exciting, taking an idea from a design sheet to the finished article. It has far exceeded our expectatio­ns.

“We wanted a vehicle that was a real head turner and that’s exactly what we’ve got in this car.

“There are so many talking points on this vehicle – it’s a real wow!”

Listers Land Rover brand director, Anthony Hope added: “Listers is very proud to have developed the kind of client relationsh­ip where our customers have enough faith to work with us on such a significan­t and important project. We are very pleased to build a new relationsh­ip with The Dallas Burston Group.

“This has been an unrivalled experience for any motor dealer.”
