am looking at a couple of 4.4's one is a bit newer with the dual screen, the other not...... whats the theory on this? Is the latter version worth the money? other than the dual screens is there anything else?

cheers

I’d go for 2019 if budget allows:
Better / more comfortable seats
Re-located seat controls
Benefit of security software update (only recently launched for the 2017 cars and still pending) L405 2017 TDV6 AB
Previous toys:
4.4 TDV8 Westminster. Santorini Black
1976 Lightweight
4.0l P38
2 Disco 3s
Jaguar XJ6 (X350)
Jaguar XJ8 (X308)
Jaguar XK
Jaguar XK8. Confirmed JLR nut.

cheers mattt, good info

Is the neeer one worth £20k more? As that seems to be about the long and short of it……

i had this decision not so long ago. 17 plate 30kmiles, 19 plate 57k miles. 19 plate was £4k more.

i went with the 17 plate. once screen less to go wrong!?  Cheers

I'd say that in general newer likely to be "better" with a longer shelf life. But you will be on the steeper part of the depreciation curve so will loose more value. The changes tend to be nice-to-have's rather than must-haves. But we all value "newness" differently. Just having the facelift look is enough for some, whereas those of us who keep our cars for longer prefer to find the best we can afford at the time of purchase and continue to enjoy it despite the subsequent MY changes that others rave about. Mike - MPx

reading on here it seems the late 17 cars are much improved, personally i not keen on some of the later model updates. overfinch modified

the one that I was looking at was an 18 plate, so maybe that would qualify as a late 17 car? I think that for me with two kids and two dogs cejpaer / older is better

Also guys are the seats in the newer d350 mhev Westminster as comfy / good as the seats in the 2019 AB?
