Hi,
What about a HSE LUX Question also depends what spec/options inside you want, you can keep the adaptive cruise but now I always want a heated steering wheel and remote for the fbh Whistle

MPG only drops below 30 if the tintent is on the back, currently showing 34.6 (more like a real 32 after brim to brim checks)
so 12000 for me would be £2k not £3K Censored and its all A or B roads

Depreciation could well be 20% for the first year from a m/d Sad buy at £30k try and sell 1Y later at £24k Sad

Buy in the spring, keep it 18 months and sell in the winter Thumbs Up (ps anyone want to buy a "60" for £25K Laughing )

Had two RRS and one D3 even with their "landrover ways" its still a nice place to be sat
.

Spain 

Land Rover never fitted 22in rims, max is 20.
After market rims may not have sufficient load rating for a 2.5 ton vehicle, plus the ride will be Censored In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures
Gone - A couple of RRS, A couple of Disco's. However thinking of another Sport.

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

22" wheels from RRS2 / L494 which are OEM should do the job if you really must have 22" rims, as SRE says LR never designed nor tuned the airsuspension system to ride on 22" with RRS1 (the very early 2005/2006MY car even needed a steering rack upgrade to run 20" rims!) and the ride can be awful on them. Also there are very very few non OEM rims that have the weight rating as mentioned and there used to be regular posts complaining about fractured rims here. The L494 RRS2 OEM wheels though are strong enough. My car has 22" OEM rims and the ride is very good, but it was set up and designed to run 22" wheels. I don't understand the desire to fit huge wheels to cars never designed to have them and I see from the literature that I have received about the new Jaguar iPace ZEV that it will be optimized to run on 23" wheels! Why? Think of all the additional friction to over come with such wide and large tyres when you might recall how skinny the tyres were on earlier Hybrids. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW
