My thoughts too mse but thought better of mentioning it. I fear it'll be a common choice - big shiny wheels, glass roof, Audi drivetrain... 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

Looks good! I've gone for the same wheels but as they are dealer fit have ordered the car on standards (to sell on) and will be choosing between style 23 and 24 when I see them in the flesh. Dealer wants circa £1200 for tyres - was yours the same? 2017 MY - Dynamic, same again! 2016 MY - Dynamic - same spec again all round, engine a noticeable improvement 2015 HSE Dynamic - same spec as the last plus Meridian, Full Size Spare & InControl Apps HSE Dynamic 2014: Ebony / Lunar, Heated Mirrors, Privacy Glass, Heated Steering Wheel, Red Callipers, Interior Mood Lighting, Ebony Headlining, Panoramic Roof, Electric Towbar, Centre Console Fridge. Previously: 2011 RRS, Aston Martin V8 Vantage, Audi S5 Cab, RRS, Audi S4 Cab. |

I thought about mentioning it - its a sensitive topic i appreciate, but if we dont educate on here - then where! Its a shame, a bit like not seeing the ediff that often, off road or dynamic equipped vehicles will be scarce (not that i will buy second hand), in favour of pointless wheels or shiny trim. To spend £66k i would want most of the things i have on mine now...unfortunately not much of that is in the 66k! wheels are not important (look nice yes) All that sounds very negative i appreciate.

Very interesting. I'm a complete 4X4 novice and am trying to glean as much info about the off road gismos as possible before taking the plunge and ordering a new RRS. Basically, I need a comfortable pothole beating vehicle that will stand up to the local "roads" and to visit family in Bavaria twice a year. It won't be used for off-roading or towing. I think the SDV6 in HSE spec with 20" wheels and adaptive dynamics is the best compromise. Perhaps it might be wise to specify the £410 Off Road Pack if only to help resale value. I'm not sure the On/Off Road Pack or a more powerful engine is worthwhile as I have another car with all the performance I need. |

wow! 
It is becoming very unlikely that I will be replacing the MY12 RRS I currently have with the new model............. Jim |

HSE spec no longer has low range etc, nor does it have all the new dynamic driving stuff. The former is around £500 the latter is £4k Equally did you order the folding seats, believe it or not, to have the same type of seats as the current is an option! Towbar is apparently 2k option if you are planning to tow! Mike 2014 Facelift Discovery |

Ditto Jim. I'm on my third RRS at the moment but can't see this model being my fourth. So, what next?? MY12 SDV6 HSE Sumatra/Ebony/Piano/Sidesteps/Privacy/Overfinch Olympus/JLR DRLs |

Having read the reactions of current RRS owners I am beginning to have doubts about the new model, maybe I ought to look elsewhere - unless Land Rover see the light with more generous specs. |
