Sill plates

Does anyone know if the 08 MY TDV8 has sill plates as standard. My car arrives Friday and I know the kids will stand on the sills to get in and out. Thanks

I did not get sill plates with my TDV8 year 08, so i got them off e bay from fellow forum member TASMOD for £80 and they are quality.

I think we might see them definitely in place for MY08.5 (or maybe we won't). Either way the Tasmod's remain king Bow down

I don't think you get them as standard. Even if you do the LR official ones are crap at protecting the sills as they do not cover the whole of the outer sill but only the flat part. The area that gets scuffed is the edge and they don't cover it at all! Tasmod's sills are the best I've seen for giving all over protection because they curve round the sill - and at £80 compared to LR's prices they are a bargain. 2013 Discovery HSE Luxury - 3.0 SDV6 - Santorini Black

After 8 month waiting time I finally took delivery of my new TDV8 yesterday and it has the sill plates. Thumbs Up
So far very impressive, big difference from the TDV6 and the sound is just awsome!

One thing though...the black on the middle console looks better (color wise) but also looks more like plastic in comparison to the old dark grey one...

08 HSE's should have sill plates, early models didn't have them so if so see your supplying dealer. Wink TDV8 HSE in Java/Ebony with Zebrano Wood, RSE, Hybrid TV, and a few other bells and whistles.

Saw my car - no sill plates. New insert to floor strip but you would have thought LR would put sill plates on - they know the paint gets damaged because they put plastic tape over them during pre delivery transit. Oh well its only £55k what do you expect !!

Tasmod - cheque on the way !!

PS Nice car though Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Yep that's what my Dealer told me as well. RR logo floor plates located at the edge of the carpet on the inner step, not on the painted sill where you put your Tasmod's. TDV6 - gone

Josh - yours is the same colour as mine. Looked pretty trip even though it hadn't been washed yet.

I've yet to officially see mine, as it's too far away. Off to the dealer on Thursday to collect it. Yippee Exclamation

But I have seen a few Stornoway's around and I do like the colour. Just as well. Very Happy TDV6 - gone
