Lovely car Mick, enjoy the delivery of the 3.6tdv8

The engine is absolutely fantastic, just wish mine had the 8 speed auto box...

Nice car.

Not sure what you mean about 10MY vs 11MY interior quality? The 11MY leather has been noted by other members on here to be of a higher quality semi-analine than 09MY or 10MY.

As i said , i am not taking anything away from the 2011 Mdl , engine and performance wise it is an awesome machine , i am only saying that the model i took for a test drive months ago when they first came out to me felt a bit un supportive as regards to the material that was used as the filling for the seats , nothing to do with the quality of the leather , as most of Land Rovers Hides come from up here at the Bridge of Weir Leather works ...  ====================================

Beautiful vehicle mick

The inside looks just like mine ! Superb choice if I may say so



I wonder if the 4.4 2011 you tried was a vogue rather than SE ? The seat feel is quite different.

Before I ordered the new one, I nearly bought a 3.6 2010 which was pretty much the same, just didn't have the extra's I wanted, but I hadn't noticed any difference in the seats.

I really like the new rear Centre Armrest/cup-holder thingy....
