Arrived home on Monday, so far so good, well pleased. Will post some better photos when the sun shines again!






 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

Congrats, would call it „Rendezvous with Joe Black“...

For me the great styled 494´s body is looking sleeker without the sidesteps and the rear mudflaps.
But I am special here, all my cars are kept as sleek as possible (dirt before touching the lines)...

Great combination with the ivory interior!
Enjoy.

Best

Congratulations - first MY19 on this forum?

Thanks Renaco.
The wife needs the side steps to get into the car so they were a must have. I agree with you on the sleeker uncluttered look but we have a lot of poorly maintained single track roads where we live so the flaps give some protection against mud and stones. 2018 MY19 HSE Dynamic, Santorini, Ebony/Ivory, Sliding pano, Adaptive cruise, Black wheels.

I would love the rear end , it is the one aspect I dislike about my year model. The treatment of the exhaust is very good IMO. Nice car, like black but would never own as I am pretty slack when it comes to cleaning. M16 SVD8 ,4.4 HSE with a few extras, Sold R50 , Wife SQ5 , BMW R1200GSW.

Great photos and look forward to see more. I will try and post some photos of my MY19 too...... Enjoy  2010 RR 5.0 Autobiography

Def a yes from me with sidesteps as they do finish the car off nicely,,mine didn't have them on when I first bought it & the car didn't look right without them.When I fitted mine I took the steel trims off & had them painted black which make them look even better.
