| Is fitting a tracker to a new RRS worth it? As I understand it, car thieves are now wise to trackers and can disable them just as quickly as they can steal the car. If the concensus is to fit one anyw ... |

My new Dynamic is being built Friday, likely to have the updated engine?
I'm in the same position as my HSE arrives in less than 3 weeks. I don't think its a major issue as you can always get the eng ... |

I assume the service plan is transferable so even if you keep the vehicle for 3 years, the 2 years left on the plan is a selling point when you move it on

| Coincidentally, I test drove a RRS today and also found the throttle response tardy compared even to my lumbering L322 FFRR. However, the new RRS isn't the only vehicle that I've owned or driven which ... |
