My new rrs my12 has been into the dealers twice already, and it's only 3 weeks old !!!
Electric Remote rear door will not open, been adjusted twice and still causing problems.
Hope they fix it this time.
Anyone else heard or experienced any issues with the above??

I think Ady 555 might have had some problems with the remote electric tailgate davyo I'm sure he'll speak up if he did.

Shame yours has had to go back the dealers 3 times. I've just nudged over 5k miles and still VERY pleased with mine and so far, aside from a wheel alignment issue, its been great  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

Just picked my rrs up from the dealers and after 2 fixes recommended by Landrover (2 software downloads) still not working! works occassionally,,
Now have to wait for Land Rover to come up with a permanent solution..

Ady 555 did you experience issues with yours?? and what was the fix ?

Davyo, I have two sets.
The OEM carpet ones that were supplied by the dealer when I picked up the car and an OEM rubber set that I bought from a member on here.
I don't think there are 'factory fitted' mats as they are an optional extra so will always placed in the car at a dealers  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

Mine will be more or less the same as Davyo's when it's delivered on Thursday (!!!!!) with the addition of a sunroof.

Very excited and pics to follow. Will be a MY13 but I think there are only minor changes from 12 with the HSE.

I haven't seen it yet so will be up early looking for the delivery lorry...  Rod

Dave-

Alhough I don't have a 12 to compare it with I don't think there is anything different on the 13 at HSE level. There are some pricing differences so that(e.g.) now contrast stitching costs extra, but I can't find anything different from the spec in the 12 year brochure.
After an early glitch on delivery ( as per other thread) I'm very impressed, though the satnav looks a bit outdated.

How are you finding it?
Any differences

Dave

Really growing on me now. I've come out of much faster cars but not missing them as the surge from the V6 with eight speeds seems very adequate.

Looking again at mine and the photos you posted of yours, they are identical.
No differences at all.

The only external change from my mate's MY 2011 is the different tailgate and chrome strip, but I see your 12 has got that.

Suspect if you wanted a different look you'd have to buy something other than an HSE, though the Red Edition looks a bit too bling for my taste. Rod

My dealer told me that the red cailpers are only on the Petrol model red edition, do you know if that is correct?
