Love the look of it, very much like the new Range Rover Sport. Just not sure about the sound of the exhaust. The old Bowler Wildcats used to sound much better. Still, wouldn't say no if someone offered me one. :D

Must be the supercharged jag motor?

Definately not a patch on the Rover sound.

Pity it doesnt sound as good as it looks

The Nemesis is the work of British Off-Road specialist Bowler and it’s developed to take on the world’s most hardcore rallies, such as the Dakar. The Bowler Nemesis is based on the Range Rover Sport from which it borrows about 40 percent of its components. That includes the Range Rover’s 4.2-liter supercharged V8 that produces in stock form 385 Hp. Bowler however, converted the fuel system from petrol to E85 bio-ethanol and remapped the engine management system increasing output to over 500Hp. Of course such a beast doesn’t come for cheap as Bowler charges $244,000 or €173,000 for a complete Nemesis.

There will be an older Bowler (1999), winner of Scottish and Welsh Hill Rallies championships 1999,2000, at the 60 years Land Rover show this weekend. You'll even be able to buy it and for a few hundred $K less than the new one.
