What are you planning on going wheeling in? There's a ton of local groups, but they all cater to different crowds...

Ok, well as far as taking the Range Rover off road goes, you should hit up the Roverlanders of BC (of which I am a proud member!). We're actually heading out on a no-scratch trip on Sunday, since I've got to take my LR3 test car out for testing, you should come along! Check out the Roverlander forum; details are on there.
For the Nissan, try bc4x4.com. They're a good group too, but they might not take something as nice as a Range Rover Sport Supercharged quite as well as the Roverlanders!

They have a core group that tend to do things that would tear the bumpers off that Range Rover. Think Unimogs, Jeeps with 44" tires, etc etc...

depends how much damage you are willing to take. i regularily kick panels back into place on my jeep, if you arent willing to do the same, dont wheel with hardcores! there are stock friendly runs aplently organized on sites like bc4x4 and funinbc
