Ok so hear is a pic of the new blades against an unused "old" blade I still have from last year.

The new blades do feel as though they have a softer compound/rubber ... only time will tell [ and some wet weather ] .... I will report back.

Ps They cost £12 each

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 Autobiography Arctic Frost

I can see the problem straight away

The old style wipers have a pink label on the packaging the new ones dont,

That will cause the problem every time some of my Previous cars

Ahhhhhhh he says

not the only difference

The old ones come in a rigid perspex case

The new ones in a plastic bag = more cost cuts
