The car looks great with the colour coded bits, but I can't say I like it better this way. I like the 'match' between the contrasting roof and the black parts under the doors etc. It looks more polished, so to speak, with the colour coded parts, I prefer the rougher look with the black parts.

But an awesome looking car, that's for sure

Wow - you have a good eye Ady! Flying home from Spain today and it will be the very first thing i check!!

Lee - Revere did the badge (lettering) change for me. Cost £105 with labour, but yes, they are available to do yourself on eBay but i'm not confident on a 70k car! WINNER - 2009 Best in Class Range Rover Sport Award

This looks like quite a good company...... big range and curved ones for the bonnet and rear......
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/LAND-ROVER-BODY-P...=656445819
Email them a question and ask if they will fit the new RRS perfectly.....
They have nearly 8000 positive feedback so I would trust them.....
The kits come with 3m tape already on and a template for fixing......
Its quite easy and I've done it before..... Use the old lettering as guidance for the new template....

Old lettering should come off with a little effort .... carefully though........ then a little WD40 to get the old 3M tape off... it's the same as they use on the number plates....
If your a bit of a DIYer... do it if not..... only £105 2014.5 SDV6 AB Dynamic ... Fuji /Santorini Pan roof and 22's

Sent them pics via email and they said that "The tyres are outside facing so they are correct how they are fitted" but i'll be taking it up there tomorrow to have it checked as theyre not the same both sides as you pointed out. WINNER - 2009 Best in Class Range Rover Sport Award

I would imagine in extreme conditions it will have an effect on traction.

Finalised my order today and went back to dealer because my son really wanted to see the new model.
Now he was really into the style and presence of the existing model ( as I was ) but when we pulled up and saw the new model he was completely bowled over. The new car cannot be compared to the old model as it is overshadows the old model completely.
It looks better, drives better and makes the old model look and feel really dated.
Park them side by side and you will know what I mean!!
Cant wait till mine is here...................in about 9 months!!!!

Funny when i pulled up to look i was really dissapointed, so dont agree with what you are saying at all. SVR 2018 in Santorini Black.

Every one is sure to have their own opinion.
I loved the old model but other than the updates its an 8 year old car now !
Have a drive in a new one. Its so much better than the old model and a much nicer place to be, but hey if you dont like it dont buy it.
I personally love it and cant wait till mine arrives.

must say the new one drives very well, but it all comes down to if you can wait 6 months and have 60k+ if I didn't have to pay school fee's it would be a no brainer.The thing is I still LOVE my RRS 1 too much to get rid

Hi Adam.......

how are you finding the ride on your 22 Revere´s ? What profile tyre do you have.......
Just looked at your pics again..... could they be 35´s you´ve got on there ?

Probably going for the AB 22´s style 17 but sorely tempted by your black Revere´s...
Trouble is if I damage them i´m not sure where I´d go out here to get em fixed !!

Hopefully finally getting my order in next week..... just waiting to hear back on a few things on the AB Hybrid.....
V8 seems to have gone out the window for me as it´s too little difference for a whole lot more money.... 2014.5 SDV6 AB Dynamic ... Fuji /Santorini Pan roof and 22's

andman look at http://www.rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic33248.html when you get a chance....

Love the Reveres but i'm going to be brutally honest - I'm glad I upgraded to the Meridian sound system as the road noise is quite apparent with these wheels.

Its not the style of wheel, its the size. Mine are 305/35/22 but LR use 275/40/22 WINNER - 2009 Best in Class Range Rover Sport Award
