What's Overfinch?

you could say that as one aspect is big wheels and a body kit
they also do performance tuning and altering the suspension to give good responsive handling on road (at the expense of the off road ability)
as the OP has pointed out, they are often driven by complete nobs.

God damn, I know personal taste is a funny thing, but those are FUGLY.

Nice... you should have told him you were filming him on the phone too, and then waved at him in his rear view.

Ah ... sounds like he has something to prove to the world!
Whenever I meet people like that, I am mindful of The Wizard of Oz ... do you remember, when Dorothy reaches the Emerald City and finally meets the Wizard ... behind the huge mask and lights and smoke, etc ... there's a little old man on a stool operating levers ...
So inside that big, white tank that tried to run you over was a showy, aggressive man ... with nothing inside.

Hah!
I just looked up the Range Rover Overfinch on Parkers ...
It is the biggest, ugliest, most pretentious and unnecessary pile of crap I have ever seen!
17 miles per gallon (I kid ye not).
Cost new is £60,000.
... and they only do it in an automatic! It truly is a car for people who can't drive properly ;o)
The fact that it's automatic is priceless ... if you ever meet anyone again who brags that they have one, just say, "Ah, I see you went for an automatic rather than a manual. What a shame that you can't drive properly, perhaps you'll learn someday"

I was about to post exactly the same thing. Crappy, grey, slow - it took about 5 minutes to get a picture of of an "Overfinch" - then I wished it hadn't
Still at least I now know the strapline
"OVERFINCH
The ultimate expression of the Range Rover Icon"
Is that actually English?
