Hello all, newbie here!! have just sold my 06 rs4 and am currently looking to buy an 06 or 07 plate rr sport, cant decide between one with a hst kit or standard with 22", the 2 cars i cant decide between are below, any opinions welcome, i would change the hst grill to a black supercharger grill both are similar in price. would the hst kit version be harder to sell when decide to sell?

Welcome to the forums Tyke
There's plenty of demand for HST cars, but don't expect to get a lot more for it at selling on time as HST kit isn't to everybodies taste. So the choice is yours - if the prices are nearly the same I would go for the HST as the kit costs something like £4500. Two things to check though - has either car ever been chipped and are the wheels genuine Overfinch because while they are lovely wheels there have been strength issues with unbranded alloys - this car weighs in at 2.5 tonnes and you need to ensure that the wheels are up to the job and LR don't sell them with 22" wheels yet. Biggest standard wheel is 20"

Is the top one Buckingham Blue or Java Black?

Nice cars though. 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

hello tim, thanks for the reply , checked with the dealer and they are the german replica wheels, but all loads etc are ok
neither have been chipped according to both dealers but i would probably have that done anyway
both are java black, edging towards the hst kit version but just holding out for a better deal

I would go with the standard one myself, it has the side steps and the 22s (even if they are replicas). Get the grille and vents swapped to the SC versions and bingo, you have the perfect RRS
