Cheers guys! Not sure about the chrome mirrors, might change them to black. I'm also considering getting a black grill and black vents to match the black paint- thoughts?

Well here she is. That was easy, downloaded the Photobucket app, added these pics in an instant to my library, and posted them on here using safari on my phone. Took these up at the dealers, along with a couple of shots through the window.

So I went back to the dealer to take some pics. I also checked the tyres and they said F1 after the Wrangler bit. Glad to hear that they do a good job in the snow. Love them pics of getting down and dirty - I'm sorely tempted to give that a go and as it turns out, there are numerous places...

I'm in Antrim Deasy, 20 miles from Belfast. A guy at work has the q7, I test drove the Mercedes ml and Mercedes cls. My sister has an x5 and my mate had a BMW 335 coupe. All lovely cars, but none of them hold a candle to the range rover in terms of the overall driving experience. I can't find...

Yes Saint V8, a kind of whirring noise that stops with a minor thud. All brakes were just replaced 2k ago and after that initial lock, they were 100% so hopefully all is ok. I'll be checking them again when I'm next up at the dealers. As for the smitten bit, I'm totally smitted lol! I went up...

Well I went tonight to check everything over and I'm delighted with what I found. Even checked to make sure the Handsfree phone was working and in a instant I was searching through my phonebook via the car controls and phoned home for a quick chat. I couldn't believe how high the car could be...

Thanks for those additional posts Tarquin and Fireburst:) So prior to posting yesterday, I was going to go for a test drive and kick the tyres a bit. After all the advise, I'm going armed to the teeth with various checks: :fighting: - Make sure the book is well stamped and the running in...

I certainly will and your right, its easy to be seduced and overlook things with all the excitement. I must say, I'm delighted with the responses, especially for a newbie who's just joined . The micky taking hasn't been too bad either so thanks a lot guys, your a great bunch on here:cool:

Great pointers, thanks a lot.

Thanks for that, will look at the stamps when I go back up. I'm not going for the pimped 22" rims, will be sticking with the 18" ones already on it which should help with the comfort and avoid the tram lining which I've read about. And your right, won't be doing any off roading in a hurry...

Had a look on the LR NI website - Charles Hurst and he has no RR's left:mad: Guess if I need to change I'll have to get a Freelander II :censored:

Love it! Nice motor and I'm sure you love it every time you get in it. Had a look at the latest Westminster in the showroom while I was there and the drool was hanging out of me - that is one hell of a well finished cabin!

I have driven both but only briefly and preferred the RR of course but can't stretch to +£30k and its only £22k for the Sport which is a pretty good price for a 3 yr old. The £22k RR's are all 06' and the concern is that this will need to be a 5 year/60k miles purchase. So much as I like the...

The vogue is clearly a step above, along with the price. I guess you get what you pay for in the end! Tight handling and acceleration isn't what I'm after, just a good solid car with plenty of comfort and that means I get to work in the worst weather.

Why's that then, I thought they were same chassis etc..?
