Hello All,

1st Posting, so bear with me.
Saw the light and got a 2008 Mdl TDV8. Did 18K in 4 months in a brand new X53.0d, then test drove a RR for a day and fell in love. How stupid was I buying a 55K x5.

Anyway I need help sourcing a HST pack quite fast. Any ideas.

What sort of costs are they.

Anyone got the DMS remap for the TDV8
Many thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forum techscrew.
HST pack is available from your friendly Land Rover Dealer who will lighten your pocket by something like £4000 for it, then there is the fitting of it to pay for as well! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Thanks Tim,

Thats what I was afaird of. The dealer took enough off me with the trade in and they are quoting 12 to 16 weeks. Seems very long.

Anyone know of any other sources, or stockists.

Thanks

12-16 weeks sounds about right for a factory ordered car - if you want one quicker contact Kam100 on these forums, I got my Tdv8 in 2 weeks through him, with a discounted price too! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Sounds like you already have the car but want the kit? The actial kit is called a 'Stormer pack' which is everything that comes with an HST except for the dise grilles. I have a TDV8 Sport with HST kit (oh and I do have taste), which in my opinion makes that vehicle look Sporty.

Dealers can order kits, however there are very few available at the moment and Land Rover release them in batches. You may find a bit of a wait because LR are in the process of finishing the TDV8 HST model, due in showrooms eary next year, so kits will probably be earmarked for those.

If you find one make sure it's for a TDV8 as the bumper needs the ACC module and the rear pipes are slightly different to the SC.

If I were you I'd speak to a Parts Dept that know's their dtuff and get one on order with LR. TDV8 HSE in Java/Ebony with Zebrano Wood, RSE, Hybrid TV, and a few other bells and whistles.

Techscrew, welcome to the forum mate... but I think you missed the bit in the terms and conditions about the HST....

Quote:

Those who require mental counselling with regard to their recent or potential HST purchase, should please off and find it elsewhere.
