Not collecting this week but considering an SE order, just waiting for dealers best delivery slot.
One thing I don't like is the seats, look horrible but probably more comfortable.

Did like the extra storage under the cup holders which slide forward to reveal a nice size convenient area with a power socket too. Nice touch.

Rear exhaust trims look smart. As does the rest of the car.

The changes look subtle which is good news for those of us not getting a new one

When it arrives, this is it; but I think the BR green on the pics is a bit misleading and it looks like privacy glass but it won't be!!

What I want to know is, why has every country in the world got a new MY18 model in their showrooms and the country(UK) where the car originated from and is made hasn't got one to look at in a showroom. Bloody scandalous!!

But I suppose like just about everything else, we Brits just shrug and put up with it!

Chalky,

If your willing to travel a bit, when I done the deal for my new car they had a facelift Range Rover on the forecourt for me to have a look and get an idea of the infotainment and touch buttons. This was at Matford Land Rover Exeter.

Our dealer in Christchurch, Dorset has their showroom car, an SE on display, along with a Vogue demonstrator. I would hope that most dealers have cars now.

And then when I went there about 2 or 3 weeks ago, they had nothing. They did say that they’d phone as soon as they had one, but I never heard a thing

Red Merle,

The day I seen it was Tuesday 6th February. I had to take my SVR down there as it’s a part ex deal for the new order.

The salesman I dealt with was Gary Keenor, really nice guy.

Looks nice and as someone else said subtle changes, personally I'm not sure on the grill.

I thought you knew all about the soft peddle , low key Range Rover sales technique- sometimes confused with ITBC
Ignoring The B***dy Customer.

Filters are in fact so good that in certain circumstances, when the ambient air is already polluted, a diesel car will tend to extract more particles from the air than it emits. Emissions Analytics worked with........etc etc

The satin highlights, headlights, grill and wheels all combine to make the car look so much more fresh (and aggressive). I am really pleased with the new wheels - the new 707!
