Too early for that ... we had snow yesterday and sleet today Sorry, not helpful I know but couldn't resist.

PS: Timed/remote climate ventilates the car quite well in hot weather. I found it adequate for UK summer. Current: Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription Pro PHEV with some optionals on top

You need to move north! For the last week up here scattered clouds on a blue sky, but cold cold wind! Hailstones here too but so far no snow, I'm coming to London tomorrow so it looks like I need my snowshoes and winter clothes!

Regarding sunscreen, there is an LR accessory one for RRS, contact Dan@Duckworths for a deal 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Many days here with hail too. It's not as bad as I made it sound but really odd because morning was relatively mild, afternoon got cooler with snow (which didn't settle btw) and by the time I left work in the evening it was mild again. Current: Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription Pro PHEV with some optionals on top

You could buy a Genuine L/R one VPLFY0069 only around £90.00 they are quite good though, but the Dashcam gets in the way a bit. Even comes with it's own little bag.

Buckster,

I got something like this:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00VGBF8CW?psc=1

It's bulky but looks very OEM with the RR logo, I tend to leave it on the back seat out of harms way or in the boot.

It's pricey but works well, and where I am you need a good sun shade otherwise the cars is an oven within 30 minutes...

Cheers

Guy

PS Have not affiliation to the product, just bought one similar 2006 RRS S/C CONSTANTLY under modification...

Expecting HOT weather, begs the question, what part of Hampshire do you live in then  In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures
Gone - A couple of RRS, A couple of Disco's. However thinking of another Sport.

Thanks for the recommendations guys and Col for the part number and pics, I brought a genuine L/R one via flea bay for £48 including postage.

Funny you say that SRE as I do tend to frequent the ferry service across to France and Spain when I feel a little too cool in Hampshire, in search of a warmer climate

Just getting prepared really, but another reason for buying one, is I actually don't think the air conditioning in my sport is that good and not just when first starting the car but all the time. Does anyone have any temp readings at the vents on full blast? Maybe I have an air con issue  2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

Hi Col,

Thanks

Damon

You could get this for £9

What's the difference, really? L405 P400e Autobiography (MY2020)... Silicon Silver / Espresso

Well not having to lick suction caps and stick it to the screen I would have said, and the fact that it will fit properly as it was designed for the car  2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

If you go to a good independent Air Con specialist (you won't find them generally at LR dealerships) they can sort it for you, and recharge, to operate at correct temperatures at exits, and at a fraction of the cost of LR service centres.

You can also don't forget as you approach your car, open all the windows from remote getting rid of that rush of hot air as you get in.  John

You don't have to lick the suction cups if you lick the windscreen. So you're only half right!

I can't find if for less than £101. Shocking price.

How does it stay in place without suction cups? L405 P400e Autobiography (MY2020)... Silicon Silver / Espresso

Fold the Sun Visor down.

Very good, but seriously ilard I wouldn't want all those suction cap marks all over my windscreen everytime i used it. Would drive me mad!! I dont mind paying half the list price to know it fits well too  2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black
