advice on new purchase

Hello, been lurking for a while........

I'm about to buy a new range rover, but am in a dilema as to which one to get.

I'm lucky that price is not a factor, but there is such a huge price difference from sport to vogue I want to know what I'll get if I spend more.
I like the sport look, but am concened about the harder seats as the vogue seems very soft.

I realise on a sport forum there may be a bias toward the sport, but has anyone had a sport & vogue and any opinion ?
Will the harder seats kill my back after a few hours driving ?
I also notice the sport is a bit more cramped in the back. Are adults in the back comfy for a long journey ?

what extra's are really worth adding ?
any thoughts welcomed ! Razz

thanks for reply.

I was concerned after reading this post http://www.rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic17807.html

Should I perhaps aim for the vogue se - will this provide better comfort ? There must be a reason for the huge price difference ?

Is there a way to make the vogue look a bit more sporty, but keeping the elegant look ? I hate some of the styling kits I've seen.

The seats in the sport are really good. Drove down too Italy in mine and they are better than my old Vogue! SVR 2018 in Santorini Black.

Just collected my new RRS and must say that the seats seem to be much better in as much as that they actually fit you, and so far they seem much better than the seats that were in my Vogue, just my opinion Thumbs Up

thanks guys for all the feedback.

I think I need to see if I can test both for a day (I'll be lucky if the dealer agrees to that Rolling with laughter !) and make the decision.

thanks again guys for your input. I did go out & try both today......I hope you won't be too upset that I have chosen the vogue se.
The pure luxury (with options I want) & the bigger diesel just clinched it for me.

I hope I won't be ousted from the forum for choosing the enemy !

gotta wait till October now Big Cry
