Hi
can anyone on here confirm that JLR have modified the build design and addressed the GAP issue on the rear tailgate area of the RRS ?
I am considering ordering a new one , but reluctant to do so if the issues have not been resolved.

Guy just took delivery of a new one, this issue was raised in the thread.

Really

As Gal Dove mentions, when you are Paying north of £68K, surely you want perfection!!

I will call into the dealers to take a view on it for myself

Honestly, it doesn't bother me. Don't let it out you off a brilliant car. Arrived: MY16 A/B SDV6 in Aruba, Ivory interior, piano black trim, black panoramic roof, spare wheel, blind spot monitoring, mudlaps and more...

Gone but not forgotten:
2014 RRS2 SDV6 HSE in Loire Blue
2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE in Santorini Black

Not bothering me as well.. despite my protestations before delivery that I would kick up a stink...

I think the reassurance that JLR said there would be a fix pacified me...

It is though ,on that growing list of issues with the car that I want dealt with, albeit at the bottom ..

It was robot... aka Rob T who got the article published in What Car.... interesting to hear from him and see if JLR are going to

be true to their word 2014.5 SDV6 AB Dynamic ... Fuji /Santorini Pan roof and 22's

out of interest and a bit related - if i compare my boot lid to the one in this random pic from internet

http://indianautosblog.com/wp-content/uplo...r-view.jpg

i'd say that my boot lid was about a centimetre lower than this and visibly does not line up with the top of the lights (the bottom of the lock actually rubs on the slot it fits into on the bumper/boot floor).

is this a "made in britain" feature.

The left side is visibly much lower than the right side of the tailgate! Current RRS: MY18 SVR
Previous RRS: MY15 RRS 5.0L Autobiography

The random pic is far from the best fit either.... is yours a worse allignment than that....mcgroa 2014.5 SDV6 AB Dynamic ... Fuji /Santorini Pan roof and 22's

My boot lid didn't line up either.
I took it back and the dealer body shop sorted it out. Not a big deal really.
