It's a $1750 option in the US MY23 guide so it will probably be around £1750 here as most other US options are the same in dollars as pounds. It doesn't seem to be standard on any models.

I think I will pass. It's a bit like waiting to slowly go though the electric revolving door to get into a building rather than opening the side door and walking straight in.

Good for chauffeurs and people who find it hard to reach out and pull big doors closed though I suppose.

I think the comment on the US website relates to regulatory approval in the US for the headlights rather than a parts shortage. I don’t think the matrix headlights on the L405 were fitted to US models because of regulatory issues.

Saw the new RR for first time on the road today. Very nice. Won’t be getting one for a while so was also quite pleased that it’s styling doesn’t “do the legs of the L405”. Obviously a design based on evolution not revolution.

I'm definitely on the same page as aja500 when it comes to closing the doors using an old fashioned arm / hand combo.

Quick question, not heard the saying “Do the legs of the L405”? before, is that a Jockinese expression
