United Kingdom 2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Santorini Black
Anyone moved to a Vogue?

I've had 4 Range Rover Sports, 3 of the new shape with another on order (17MY).

I'm seriously thinking of changing my order to a vogue with black pack, just for a change if nothing else. I'm not excited about my new sport but the thought of having something different has pepped me up a bit..

Anyone done the same?

 2017 MY - Dynamic, same again!

2016 MY - Dynamic - same spec again all round, engine a noticeable improvement

2015 HSE Dynamic - same spec as the last plus Meridian, Full Size Spare & InControl Apps

HSE Dynamic 2014:
Ebony / Lunar, Heated Mirrors, Privacy Glass, Heated Steering Wheel, Red Callipers, Interior Mood Lighting, Ebony Headlining, Panoramic Roof, Electric Towbar, Centre Console Fridge.

Previously: 2011 RRS, Aston Martin V8 Vantage, Audi S5 Cab, RRS, Audi S4 Cab.

I know alot will disagree here, but I actually prefer the FFRR to the RRS2. It still has its own identity rather than looking like the evoque.

That's my main worry - I ride in Dynamic all the time - but then neither are exactly sports cars and the extra space will be very handy for my 4 and 2 year olds...

Lucky enough to have an L494 SDV6 AB and an L405 SDV8 AB. They're very different cars and I prefer the way the L494 drives. The L405 is still much less of a precise drive - it still rolls a bit but not as much as the L322. The cabin is far more luxurious though. Even in Autobiography trim, my Sport is too plasticky. Everything is leather covered in the L405 Autobiography.

I tried both before settling on the Sport. The FF felt a lot more "lollopy" to me. Is that an official road tester term do you think? MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.

We had a FF loaner for a week on one of the many occasions our 'Evoque Broke'. Really liked the FF, not a car you needed to drive quick to enjoy. In a perfect world we would have a FF and an F Type but the pension is not that generous so will took the RRS. However by the time Nasty Nicola has taxed the balls off us we will be lucky to own a 20 year old Rover 600. 2018 MY19 HSE Dynamic, Santorini, Ebony/Ivory, Sliding pano, Adaptive cruise, Black wheels. Arrived 3rd September 2018
2015 MY16 HSE Dynamic, Santorini, ebony/cirrus, sliding pano, cameras, black wheels - Arrived 1 October 2015

I still miss my vogue or should I say I have fond memories of my vogue, two very different cars as said above. If you want the feeling of luxury and class and going on a gentle drive then get the vogue on the other hand if your driving style is more suited to a mad blast and lots of pushing on / making progress and a feeling of style performance and quality then it has to be the sport .
It's a good dilemma to have , things could be worse.

Definitely a good problem to have! I've driven a Vogue 4/5 times and had no issues but last time was about a year ago so need to jump in one again.

3 of the same car in a row and I just fancy a change, my only issue is the ride - no other worries at all (looks/size etc).

Incidentally my first new shape sport did not have meridian, it was awful. How is the stock Meridian 380w in the Vogue or is that another obvious upgrade.

So far I have black pack, meridian, tow bar, privacy. Ebony headlining added... 2017 MY - Dynamic, same again!

Base sound system in Vogue is a non branded 250W system which sounds attrocious.

I've just test driven the Vogue and managed to test the £1k Meridian against the Std Meridian. The base Vogue is a branded Meridian 380w as standard. The £1k version os definitely better, as per my sport, but the 380w was actually more than acceptable.

I am into my music, I play drums, have 3 Bose systems in the house and I would prefer the £1k version but the std is definitely over and above what the std sport is and actually has bass to it... Now I have a dilemma, save £1k or compromise.. 2017 MY - Dynamic, same again!
