2010 Range Rover Vogue TDV8 Stornoway Grey

My 2010 Tdv8 Vogue waiting to be collected

Yesterday I was in London and dropped by at Lookers Park Royal to sign some papers and to get some photos of my new ride. Excuse the poor quality of the photos but they were taken on my iPhone

Prepped and waiting for Wednesday

The virtual dash - must say that it is much clearer and better presented than any of the similar info screens we have on the ship, but then most of them are on 46" flat screen monitors!

My drop plate detachable towbar modified for a Pendle Bike rack, it's been still in the back of the garage since 2005 waiting for a new RR to go onto! It weighs a tonne too!

Tim,

As said before, many congrats on the new car, it looks beautiful, I really like the colour coded wing mirror caps (much nicer than the Chrome stick on things IMO)

Thanks Adam, yes I had the same mirror covers fitted to the RRS after I bought it, nice thing about Stornoway Grey is that all the important bits come colour coded straight from the factory
I forgot to mention above too that it is "new to me" having lived the last 3 months as one of LPR's demo cars......

Tim - great to se you've got rid of the girlycar at last!

Next time we are in Glen Lyon, it'll be harder to tell us apart, but I suppose yours will have the LED fairy lights. I wonder if this one will venture off tarmac?

Hope you enjoy it. Looks great. The older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom

2007 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Tonga Green

Lovely looking Range Rover Tim (i'm quite jealous )

Really like the virtual dash on the 2010MY's - and the new style keys - and the new push button ignition - and the new steering wheel - and ... .

I take it you drive a boat for a living? ( Just putting two and two together)

I'm used to it Tony What a dull world it would be if there wasn't something to be envious of!!
It isn't my first FFRR - that was the Monte Carlo Blue one posted elsewhere here, that one took me 28 years to save up for so there's hope for your researching yet! 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes
