Tigger, the car looks very nice, quite a classy combination having the Green paint and tan interior.

I think LR missed a trick with the chrome strip on the boot lid, they should have engraved Land Rover on it, similar to what Jaguar have done on their cars.

Thanks Mark

There was one exactly the same smashed up at the local bodyshop, 2 days old, apparently someone didnt see it coming out of the hedgerow.

Now, there's a comment i wasn't expecting!

Tigger - Not related to the above comment , do you know if LR have enabled any kind of DRL's yet ? someone on here said that the car was 'ready' and just needed the tweak by the dealer, but I think that was just activating the dipped beam rather than any ''Audi type LED's'' Can't see anything different on the front of yours.
Looks gorgeous inside

Glad you like the interior

There's no LED's - I the DRL's are simply conventional sidelights with brighter bulbs!

Tigger.

And it's got the correct number of pedals and movable levers

That's what the vehicle rectification area at the end of the production line is for; if it comes down the line with one peddle too few and with a weird gear lever they keep hitting it with large mallets until it's right!

I've just noticed that yours has a white high level brake lamp. Are all the 2011MY like that? I had a 60 plate courtesy car yesterday & its was red.

Nice colour car though.  Poke it, Poke it, make it do it again!!

Yep, they all seem to be white - at least, every other new one in the compound that I looked at was like that.

Glad everyone so far seems to like the colour. It's a shame that the photo doesn't do it justice. I had to nip back there today (okay, it didn't take a lot of arm twisting!) for my wife and daughter to see it and it really sparkled in the bright sun shine!
