Thumbs Up

Forgive me if you've answered this but what's the ride like with the car lowered? Gone: RRS : HSE : TDv6 : 57 : Java Black : Ebony : 20"

When I place my suspension in the lowest mode and drive it (albeit, no faster than 20mph) over a few bumps, the drive is not very comfortable in comparison to normal mode.

Is that what you're experiencing (I appreciate you're fine with it) or has something else been modded to improve the drive? Gone: RRS : HSE : TDv6 : 57 : Java Black : Ebony : 20"

It doesn't lower the car to the lowest setting... That would be horrible! The car is lowered 25mm above access mode which makes all the difference WINNER - 2009 Best in Class Range Rover Sport Award

That explains it nicely Thumbs Up

I'm considering doing that as it sits a little high for my liking.

Have you suffered from the famous suspension knocking sound that most of the RRS develop and if so, does the lowering of the car have any effect on this? Gone: RRS : HSE : TDv6 : 57 : Java Black : Ebony : 20"

No, I mean the numberplate is not a rectangle. They are rounded.
