After finally getting some time to sit with my new Sport.
Things I have noticed.

The rubber seal for the electrics between the doors and the car body none are sealed and are a pain to position to stop water ingress. (fixed by me)

Drivers side lower exterior door trim loose, (fixed by our own fitters)

Rear passenger side door window seal not seated correctly, (fixed by our own fitters)

Hopefully this list does not grow but I would have expected better on a premium brand car. Its out there somewhere. Second V10 Treg on the drive at the moment.

We've had our RRS sport for a week now. We purchased the local dealer's demonstrator model which was 7 weeks old and had done 3,000 miles.

So far, I'm generally impressed with the build quality - much better than any other Land Rover product. However, I would have to agree that it probably isn't as good as a £43K German car.

We have a faulty headlamp. One lamp doesn't work, but does occasionally decide to come on for a few seconds. It seems like a loose connection somewhere. However, the xeon lamps are so good, driving with only one headlamp working, is about the same as driving with two conventional headlamps! It will be going back this week for a fix under the warranty.

Ours also has loose trim on the left side of the boot. This is the trim that has the power outlet socket. It could be the retaining clips are broken as the trim isn't sitting home tightly. Maybe this has been removed at some time and something has broken. It doesn't look good when you open the boot.

Also, I'm not very impressed with the way the rear hatch shuts. Both the top section and the whole hatch needs quite a hard slam to shut it properly and then it feels like it is shutting on badly adjusted catches. However, another car I have tried is the same. I doesn't feel like the rear hatch is shutting on rubber seals to dampen the shock. It feels crude and cheap. It also seems to be putting too much stress on the two hatches which may cause problems in the future. Matt
-------------------------------------------
RRS ownership for 1 yr, then D3 for 2 yrs. Then cut back to old bangers and working my way back up through two Peugeots in 6 months. Now got Saab 9-5 2.3t and enjoying the performance!

Had mine for 7 weeks and 5,500 miles now and (touch wood) all seems well.

The day after delivery I had to take it back for them to reset the service 'miles to' indicator that was suggesting the 1st service was overdue, and for the inconvenience I was given a boot liner. The only other problems related to the PTI which has been done to death on this site and which is now working fine; lets say possible operator error

Still getting 21mpg overall with best and worst on a tank of 19.8 and 24.4 and the V8 (not s/c) does sound rather good
