No not at all, because i'm not considering changing my motor. But with wheels costing so much, for me it would spoil the enjoyment of driving and parking it, although i am very careful anyway, but 4k for a set of wheels That would take the shine off me owning a new sport. As you say, the money isn't a concern, but to me, common sense is. Good luck making your choice. |

Common sense tells me to buy a car with wheels that make me feel all warm and fuzzy

If I were in your shoes I would buy exactly what you wanted and go for the most expensive option that you can. You only live once, so you shouldn't let the cost of any Land Rover option put you off buying it.

I live out in the country and up high in the Pennines, so pot holes are a real problem and I've lost 2 wheels so far from them, and repaired another 4 (across 8 wheels - summer & winter).

Preview was good. It's definitely an impressive car. Rear seats are a bit tight with third row, but fine or children which is why we want ours. |

Jordan, i'm waiting to see how you improve the rear end of the new sport. It won't be too difficult for you guys. I think L/R forgot about the rear end when they were designing the new sport, its the worst angle of any of the L/R products. |

Couldn't agree more. They've done such a great job of the car, the front end looks nice, the interior options are stunning and then they seemed to have rushed the back end one friday night. We have initial sketches of our body styling package for the Sport which look great, the rear end (much like our L405 bodykit) is greatly improved with some tidy looking exhaust outlets and revised entry levels. The brand new 'Xenon' wheel designed specifically for the L494 New Sport will be launched in October, expect to see the body styling Spring / Summer 2014. Have you got your name down for a new model yet Ady? |
