United Kingdom 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 SE Java Black

Josh, they look the mutt's.

Think Stornoway works best with the current wheels, saw a stornoway MY2010 S/C yesterday and the wheels worked well on that.

Nearly bought a Stornoway S/C first time round, I'm gonna really struggle to decide on colour when i change Confused

Yes I'm well pleased with them. But I do think they will need 12 to 18 month refurbs to keep the laquer at its best, especially with all the salt on the roads in the winter.

I use Pristine Wheels at Woburn Sands for that. 3 day job @ £100 per wheel. Not all wheel refurb companies can do Diamond cut wheels. But they can and do a very good job there Thumbs Up TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone

Scotland 2010 Range Rover Sport TDV8 Autobiography Stornoway Grey

I was in at Town and County today and theyve a new supercharged HSE in the showroom with the wheels Wokka refers to on it. I was chatting to the salesman that sold me the Stormer while waiting and he thinks they dont suit the car either. Have to admit they do lok a bit like they should be in 16 or 17 inch on a Corsa rather than a 60+k car. Current, M135i in Estoril Blue with more extras than the cast of Ben Hur.

535d m-sport Platinum grey and a few extras.... Gone

X5 3.0 sd in Space Grey, 20's, Dynamic Pack, Memory Pack, Media Pack, Tow Pack, Rear DVD, Panoramic Sunroof, Steps, 7 Seat Pack, Reversing Camera with moving lines, programmable park heat, etc etc etc - Gone

Range Rover Sport Santorini, privacy, dvd, towpack GONE!!!

mmmm, phone call today from LR... they are looking into it. The factory say everything is "pack" driven and that is how it is, I said, that I had crossed out the SC wheels and stated Style 4 when I faxed through the order, which they accepted and took my deposit. So will wait and see..... as for the 360 camera, check the thread GONE** RRS 3.0SC Silver fully loaded Smile - 2020 110 loving it

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

The various specialist LR mags have also said they think the SC wheels don't suit the image for RRS that LR are trying to move it to. IMHO the best wheels now are the 19" multi spoke. If anyboby wants to see what Ipanema Sand looks like then on page70 of Top Gear Mag issue 196 there are several large photos and in LROI October issue number 11 2009 pages 46 to 51 there are pics of White, Stornoway, Ipanema and a very nice pic of a Bali Blue. There is a large pic of the new interior in "Carrot" orange to quote LROI - I think they mean Tan but agree that it isn't the nicest shade of tan I have seen!
BTW LROI only managed to average 9mpg in the day they had a 2010MY SC to drive in Scotland - which included the 0-100-0 run once, the rest was on road and offroad testing 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
