2012 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Santorini Black

There isn't anymore we can tell you. All you need to do now, is go out and find a 2012 HSE model, and post us your pics.

Thanks, will do. Just the small matter of sorting out a house move first, then I'll be on the hunt...

I concur. I double my budget too and went for a 2012. Interior nicer, door interior nicer, tailgate, nav, entertainment system, steering controls. Just a nicer car imo.

what are the differences on the door interior and general interior between a MY10 and MY12?

I must be in the minority 'cos I went for a 2010 model over the later version because I don't like the pop-up rotary gear knob (complete frippery IMHO). Following feedback from owners LandRover went back to a proper gear lever with the RRS2.

The multi-function screen is better on the later model though. Not sure about the tailgate, but I suppose a one piece reduces weight? I'm in the shed, I'll be back in the real world in a minute.

I test drove 3 on the same day from a Indy dealer. 2008, 2010, 2012. All under 40k miles. You will know what I mean if u do the same. Tbh I had no intention of buying any of them as I had my eye on another one, but it was 200 miles away, so I drove each to get a sense of what was updated, how each one felt etc.

All of them were excellent cars in their own way, but they went from 25k to 35k so not really apples with apples.

I would advise you to do the same between a 2010 and 2012 at least. It will be 2 hrs well spent. You may even not consider the changes worth it, but at least you will know. 2015 RRS AB SDV6, Fuji White, Ivory

One thing I hate about the 2012 is that silver strip under the rear window. Much prefer the 2010 tailgate where its all one colour.

Well I didn't actually know that it was a facelift thing. I had the option of two cars, the one I bought which was a 60 plate tdv6 AB Sport and the other was an 11 plate that had an AB exterior conversion. Not sure if there were any other small changes that came with the sliver strip but it may have influenced my decision had I known
