Just beware... because from the factory, you actually get tinted glass. Usually, if you get your dealer to provide "privacy glass" on a car that wasn't built with it, they just apply a film to the standard glass and the visible difference is very marked.

2008 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Java Black

She finally arrived Now I'm just looking for excuses to take her out for a drive, so I'm driving the mrs around for her Christmas shopping

I guess you all can imagine how happy I am, this car is fabulous.

I'll try to get some pics online asap.

RRS Java Black HSE MY08.5 TDV6
Alpaga Premium leather
20" Wheels
Sunroof
Cold Climate Pack
Privacy Glass
Satelite alarm
Bluetooth
Rubber floor mats

I'm waiting for the first service to get the engine remap done although I'm not unhappy with the engine performance.

The only thing that annoys me is that the manual is for a MY08 and some stuff isn't referenced in there.

- Electric column with memory and easy access
- The sunblinds aren't the same any more, they are simple blinds without the extra parts that you can fold
- The memory is now bound to the key so that the seats move into the last position used by that key.
- I can lock the suspension in extra low position while driving, the car won't lift automaticaly.

And of course the bluetooth is worse then I imagined, my HTC Tytn pairs but doesn't work and my Nokia 6680 pairs, gives sound but no transfer of the phonebook.

Me happy 08.5 RRS TDV6 HSE Java Black/Alpaga - Cold Climate Pack - Privacy Glass - Bluetooth - Sunroof - 20" wheels - Rubber Floor mats.

The manual I have with the car stats that those are standard, the dealer confirmed me that they removed the option with the MY08.5, it's not a big deal anyway 08.5 RRS TDV6 HSE Java Black/Alpaga - Cold Climate Pack - Privacy Glass - Bluetooth - Sunroof - 20" wheels - Rubber Floor mats.
