Seanvodashop, welcome to the forum and you've got yourself a nice car sir! You will notice a big difference over your old X5's
HST is a "go fast" body kit, some square section tail pipes, gaping mouth honeycomb effect cheese-grater front grille and chrome effect finish side vents that only serves to weigh an already heavy car down further. Looks OK in some colours but truly awful in others. It was a separate model at one stage but now the kit comes as a dealer fit accessory, you cannot buy it bit byb bit, you have to buy the whole lot for about £4000 for the dealer to stick onto your car. The addition of this kit means that your RRS looses all of it's offroad ability because ithe front valance is very close to the ground.
Read all about it here www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?f=91&h=&t=256019 it is available on any RRS now, originally it was only on the Supercharged 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

imo, the HST kit ruins the original design of the RRS, plus I'd be concerned the HST version will depreciate more than the std version. However if you like it then go for it

Don't have the HST kit if you intend to use the RRS for any sort of offroading, the kit is get damaged. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Hey Seanvodashop, Congratulations to you and your fellow South Africans. I've finally recovered from the bout of depression that followed last nights game.

As an Englishman I'm gutted that we didn't win.

As a rugby fan I have to admit the best team in the competition won through in the end.

But the bloody try was good. Wink Arctic Frost TDV6 SE. Aspen Leather, Cherry Wood, Privacy Glass, PTI, Tow Pack, Mudflaps, Tasmods, a new Fuelflap, a RRSport.co.uk umbrella in the boot & a RRSport.co.uk sticker on the rear glass.
