2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Jay my Blackberry, V3i and iPhone all connect no bother, address book gets transferred etc with the TDv8 RRS. Although the Parrot that I had in the TDv6 was easier to pair and ALL the phone numbers for contacts got transferred rather than just the 1st number for a contact. I bought a new Parrot radio with their built in BT system for my 90 but Parrot still don't seem to have released them onto the market yet - I ordered mine back in September, it should be an awsome piece of kit when (if!!) it ever arrives! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

roof lining

hi all
what about a choice of roof lining colours? cream gets dirty easily, and looks naff in such a beast as the RRS

cheers

2011 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 HSE Santorini Black

About the only decent thing on my previous car an E280cdi was ambient interior lighting,now that was really good as you could control the level of a roof mounted light panel so the interior glowed at night.
Would like to see that on my next RRS. MY2011 HSE Santorini/Ivory/Piano Black/Privacy Glass/TV .Sadly gone.

Well you're absolutely correct Tim.

Indeed there is waterfall lighting. Never noticed that in all this time. Now I have I quite like it.

Tell us if you find anything we all need to know in it Josh

I think the only bit I've ever read was how to jack the car up and what the tyre pressures should be, and I didn't even need to read it for those really! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

2010 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Santorini Black

when you turn the parking aid off (for what ever reason) then the next time you select reverse it should auto re-enable.. currently it doesnt and that's got disaster written all over it!

Agree with most of the suggestions on here, especially Tim's original list.

One thing I would say though is that the Sat Nav is very very poor in the RRS. They need to use a better system that has algorithams which can make better use of the Navtech map data. My 7 year old Garmin Streetpilot is still more accurate than the Nav in my RRS. One of the worst things is that it doesn't seem to cope with recalculating a route if you decide to divert from the Nav's recommended one. It almost always just tries to get you back on to it's calculated route, ignoring the fact that there may now be a shorter/faster alternative because of the diversion you have taken. Really very poor on a car of this value and lets face it, not expensive to fix - there are now so many good systems out there that they could incorporate. 2013 Discovery HSE Luxury - 3.0 SDV6 - Santorini Black

I must disagree with the comment on the sat nav.

In 2006, ours took us door to door across and around Europe, no issues what so ever.
