Yes and it's quite well executed.

Does the Infotainment system have the new online media functionality with Deezer and Tunein. I have seen that the latest Velar software has it... Just curious if the big RR has got it too...

I have seen Streaming services but will take a picture when I am in the car later.

The USB under the cup holders is quite neatly done - I have bought a very short braided lightening cable to fit in there

The modem has been upgraded to support 4G - hooray!

Can't say I'm warming to that new seat design, looks too much like Lexus or some old barge.

Thinking the same, they don't look very Range Rover.

The seats are definitely as ugly as sin but nice to sit in (there is a filthy analogy there which I won't go down the road of....)

Thanks for adding the photos. I had to go and have a look at mine to remind me what the current ones look like!

They do look very different and very odd without all of the switches on the side. I wouldn't say they were ugly, just more a bit out of place in a 21st century car. More like something better suited to a Rover P5B.

Now that I've put it like that (and seeing as I have no time for fashion in cars) I'll have a set

I see the new seats are still suffering from excessive creasing.

Leather quality looks far better but the fitting is still so poor.

Thanks. Paint quality is the same as my previous MY17 car - about average I would say (not as good as Bentley but better than Audi / BMW).
