What is it with dealers taking out mats before they sell a car. I've just picked up a TDV6 today and in the original pics it had mats and the rubber boot mat, today..... Nothing!!

Is there some kind of black market for mats that I dont know about or something? Very strange.

Anyway, anyone got a link for some decent mats..??

That's not really cricket
Can you not point out the fact to your dealer and ask for them back  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

GOING: BMW F31 335D MSport+ xDrive Touring

GONE: BMW F10 520D MSport - Carbon Black

I could ask but I'm sure he'll just say they were lost at some point.

Where's good to pick up some new ones, don't fancy paying LR prices.

You think these will be half decent? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Rover-Range-Sport-...amp;sr=8-5

Although not the cheapest the LR ones are very nice and good quality, I will attach photo your kind of see the nice trim/badges, not that expensive if your planning to keep it tip top

I reckon the valeter puts them on eBay! Your right though, mats DO mysteriously disappear from main dealer stock... Range Rover Sport HSE DYnamic SDV6 Velocity blue 2020 MY

Range Rover sport 3.6tdv8HSE 2007 Gone
Range Rover sport 2.7tdv6SE 2005 Gone

Range rover Vogue 2005 4.4 - GONE and missed
BMW 535d M sport 2006 - GONE not as missed

Talking of floor mats - why are there "hooks" on the floor of my 2007 RRS yet the mats (which seem to be genuine LR) have no provision to connect 'to' the hooks?

You should learn the Columbo Close,just as you are halfway through signing the order just stop and check that the mats are included.
If they were in the car when you agreed to buy it you should have insisted on them being there on pick up.

The hooks go through corresponding holes in the correct mats. MY2011 HSE Santorini/Ivory/Piano Black/Privacy Glass/TV .Sadly gone.
Audi A5 Sportback Black Edition 3.0 tdi quattro S Line

So it looks like I've got the wrong mats. It's proving difficult to identify the correct one's. Can anyone recommend a supplier please:

2007 TDV8 3.6 HSE Black (front) carpets (not rubber) with a 'hook' in the middle (towards the seat) of the floor.

Cheers.

I bought the LR mats. Sure they're more expensive than the alternatives from ebay et al but they are decent quality and, crucially, they fit properly.

Oops, just noticed you want carpet. Mine are rubber but I have no doubt the carpet ones would be as robust and be of as good quality as mine. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

CycleSi - give Dan at Duckworths a call ( site sponsor) I'm sure he'll give you a good price for OEM carpet mats  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

The last 2 cars I've bought have had the matts moved into the boot when I've been to buy them, whats that all about!?  Current: 06 RR Sport HSE TDV6, Bonatti grey, black leather. Defender 90 pick up. Vito 110cdi
