L405 Range Rover interior - and comfort on long journeys

Here's the latest report on the latest Range Rover by What Car?

Specifically, it raises the question of interior quality vs other luxury rivals, and the Range Rover's suitability as a long distance cruiser.

Agree or disagree?

New S Class is supposed to be as refined as it gets, but the interior is a chintzy horror designed for Chinese tastes. Some L405 trim still feels a bit low-rent though.

Last week i sat into the new L405 and the new sport. I felt the sport was more prestigious than the l405 and wasnt overly impressed with the interior space of the l405 especially the boot size. Present :2008 TDV8 HSE

What does "more prestigious" mean? Sport is a fair step down in interior quality.

I don't agree with the nay-sayers about how the L405 is poor quality.

OK, the price has been bumped up in my mind, slightly artificially by LR cos they know they can get away with it, it's all about perception, but let's not forget that compared to almost ALL cars on the road, nothing compares to a RR.

Also, remember that it's built in the West Midlands. We are not German. (I can slate the W Mids as I am half Brummy!)

The L405 is a gorgeous car made by a very successful UK born company, made by British people and renowned the world over. We should be proud, not negative.

If you feel its not worth the money buy something else or, do what I do, wait for someone else to have taken the major hit in value, then buy it!

I think it must be easy to make an S class comfortable as it really only has one job in life... The FF has many roles to play and ok its great at some and not so good at others... But as an all rounder Thumbs Up Thumbs Up Thumbs Up
