However Lady Nasher and myself are both quite into our music, and would really miss the very top of the range system we have in the D4 if it wasn't as good in an L405.

The only way to tell that it’s definitely got the Signature hifi is speakers in the roof near the front sun visors… some in the rear roof too. I only know as it’s one of the must haves if I ever get an L405. There will also be speakers in the back of the front seats, as mentioned above, but some have that and no speakers in the roof, so I’m thinking the mid option may have seat speakers….

Some cars have got dummy speaker grills in the back of the front seats and they don't have 'Meridian' on them.

I believe that these were fitted if the car was ordered with optional 24 way seats, without the signature 1700w system. Have a search on here as it's been discussed before. 2017 SDV8 Autobiography

Thanks all, I appreciate your comments, and am getting a good understanding of what to look for.

I recently looked around and sat in a 2019 L405, I maybe going mad but… it felt bigger than the first gen models both inside and out. Any truth in what I am feeling or is just my mind playing tricks on me?! 2009 pre-facelift 3.6 TDV8.

if it had a light colour interior then your probably right.. ... - .- -.

sorry to resurrect a slightly older thread, but I thought it best than starting a new one.

Am I right in thinking all L405's (I'm specifically looking at an AB), come with auto deploying side steps, or was this a dealer fit option?

They are an expensive option on all models. overfinch modified

ah, for some reason I had it in my head they were standard on Autobiography models. Clearly I was miss-informed.

most AB's do have them....i havnt seen many without.. ... - .- -.

that was what confused me.

They're just often not listed in the spec, but easily visible just below the sill line from a slightly far back side shot. Unless I'm mistaken.

yes indeed...easily spotted,

They are an expensive option for sure but after having them on my RRS I decided I couldn't live without them on my Fat. Bought some Pegasus deployable steps through Newbury 4x4 for a fraction of the OEM price and do the job just fine. 2017 Vogue SE

Deployable steps are a dealer fit option though - so easy to add to any car - unlike a lot of other things that must be specified at build time. A bit like wheels..... I always focus on the big things first - like colour
