I bought one! It's the one that is available officially for around £300 - £400. I paid £50 for the genuine OEM part, via eBay, direct from a dealer who was looking to off load some excess stock. My wife and I are very partial to a bit of walnut. Even though we knew it wouldn't be the real thing, it is only slightly more convincing than Fablon! If I'd paid £400 I'd have been incensed! Really, it's rubbish. Save your money... |

I bought the wooden trim bits in error on ebay last year, but it turned out not to fit my S model, due to the fact that the part of my dash that it would have replaced is not removable, the dash being all in one piece. Higher spec models have aluminium or wood trim that can be removed, and the bits I purchased are removed from such a spec. vehicle. If anyone is interested in it, it is stored in my attic. I'd like £20 for it if possible + postage. FL2 TD4 S Baltic Blue, with twin electrics and towbar, roofrails, luggage cover, spare wheel and mudflaps. |

I have fitted the genuine LR item in my FL2. It is easy to fit. I was told by the dealer that it IS proper wood veneer which I guess it should be at the RRP.

Your LR dealer is being economical with the truth; it's plastic. |

Either smooth silver or pretend carbonfibre effect in silver too. |

If you were wealthy enough to afford a supercharged Range Rover Autobiography, is it safe to assume the wood trim is the real deal? LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby

I was going to buy one too. But then luckily I saw another FL2 on a car lot that had the stick-on walnut dash - it looks AWFUL!!!!!

I think the fact that the dealer was trying to off load it for £50 tells you all you need to know!
