2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Java Black

I would like mine to be able to select 2 wheel drive when driving urban or for the car to do I automatically to save a bit MPG would be a gud idea, I had a Jreg Toyota Surf years ago which I cud select with a lever or a button and my partners Nissan Gtr did it electronically and made a difference in the fuel.

2010 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Stornoway Grey

Rear passenger outer seat belts - pre MY10 they used to have (ineffective) guide holders on the tops of the seats, these have now gone and the seat belts disappear down the edge of the seats.

So the old ones were naff but don't delete them altogether - just get them right!

Hence my second comment about getting them right not just deleting them.

My gf drives a Smart and in a number of quality/design comparisons with the RRS, the RRS comes off 2nd best - seat belt guides is one of them. The Smart has a very clever swivielling mount.

She also has a better sat nav and info system - it plays DVDs, Mpegs & Jpegs!

Understand this is a problem across a few manufactures, not just limited to RR. Seems the software in the BT modules is to blame when you switch off the car during a call. Doesn't make it right though, I agree. ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
