This is the center console of the 2016 RRSC SVAutobiography I referred to - the radio looks same as that of the earlier versions before 2017

Well yes, the screen with the option icons down each side instead of across the bottom is definitely the earlier tech - I just didn't know they started SVA production that early - I thought 17MY on, but thats deffo 16MY. Is it a real factory SVA or a 16MY 5.0 SC Autobiography that's been made to look like SVA? Mike - MPx

When I looked into it the info I found said that the timing chain guide issue was resolved in 2012 across the board.... Thumbs Up Pete

15MY I think you’ll find Pete but I’m not 100% sure…

I know of plenty of 13MY 5.0’s that have failed the same as an L322 sir… 👍

Just on the question from MPx, there are two SV L405s, first there was the SV Autobiography, which I think was more about extra 'luxury', then from maybe 2017 there was the SV Autobiography Dynamic which had a more highly tuned 5.0SC engine (I think 550 or 565 BHP depending on year) and lower suspension. The SVAD all had diamond quilted seats which may be an easy way to tell them apart. Some of the SVAs had 'Poltrona Frau' leather embossed with little ovals, also a £2,500 extra on the AB Black lwb before SVA started I think. Only Range Rovers since 1988

Indeed, I own one of the SVA LWB BLACK EDITION with Poltrona Frau leather upgrade! I have the original paperwork and the leather option in the Black Series was MUCH more than £2.500 from memory! Although I’m not confident enough to guess exactly how much… Embarassed
