hi i do salvage and i got a cat b new range rover sport that i have to give the shell back to the insurance company. i also have a hst 57 reg range rover will all the body panels and trim go into it? i no there might be some wires i have to change but can it be done? or it it just the body thats the same and the trime cant go in it?


sorry if this has all ready been asked if it has can some one forward me a link to the tread thanks


also not sellling any parts

I looked into doing the front LED's and grill from MY10 but they are different from that of the 06-09 models, meaning that the wings etc have to be changed so in short i would say NO.

No, i don't think yoy (your spelling not mine) are 5.

Oi won't be comin to your scrap yard anytoim soon. I think, if you re read your posts, its you that uses text speak. I would have thought that coming from Sussex old boy that you would write and speak the Queen's, evidently not.

Read your own posts, lighten up and be able to have a laugh at yourself like we do on here!  Gone - 2008 Stornoway Grey RRS 2.7 TDV6

i'm pretty confident that the shell is the same its just the panels that are different on the later 2010MY cars.
So technically im sure you could swap over a 57 plate to the newer shell, however there are more than just exterior panels, id suspect the dash will mount slightly differntly as will the seats etc etc.

It might also be worth bearing in mind that with new engines in the 2010MY cars things like the engine/gearbox mounts and the drivetrain geometry could be slightly different. If you up for a bit of custom work then im sure its all possible.

Personally id say that it would more cost effective to buy a lightly damaged earlier model than try to make one up out of later MY parts.
