I have to agree.

The RRS looks like a c.£50k car from the outside, but a 50p car inside.

OK, that's a little bit harsh but it is not what you would expect for the money.

The central console between the front seats is a classic example - press any of the bits and they creak and crack Evil or Very Mad

Well mine does anyway.

Has anyone else noticed that when it's either hot outside, or heating on when it's cold that the dash makes more noises?

Yep, it did do back in the summer... I guess the fitment of all the dash components doesn't allow for much expansion due to heat. Like I've said before, the FL2 has come to production almost 2 yrs after the first RRSs - there are bound to be uplifts in quality & design. What is going to be important is how good the "next" RRS will look - whenever that occurs. That will set it ahead of the FL interior again. Well, you'd hope so anyway... Confused

yip I pick up my Tango Orange FL2 next week and looking forward to it.

Now I know you don't want to hear this but IMHO the FL2 is a quicker and better drive than the diesel RRS.

On the body kit front we are currently thinking about it Wink Wink
