Does any1 known what the GS has different to the s and that's the xs has different to the GS etc, cheers 4 the info guys, all seems pretty much the same 2 me

It depends on which year you go for. If your go for earlier models the GS will gain options such as auto light/wipers, terrain response, climate control, larger alloys and cloth/half leather.

The XS gives you Sat-Nav, half leather/leather. (I'm not sure what else!)

I hope this helps,

The older XS did not have Sat Nav, that came when they did away with the SE. XS has front and rear parking sensors, half leather seats, different wheels, upgraded stereo (I think), heated front screen, puddle lamps, ear phone sockets in back and probably a few other bits.

Best is to look on www.landrover.co.uk where it explains the differences between each of the current models.

Specifications are constantly changing, for example, the 2013 XS has lost front park sensors, ear phone sockets in the back but has gained full leather seats but manual not electris.

I though the heated front screen came with the GS?

Cheers guys basicly little extra that cost a bomb

My 07 XS has:
Front & Rear parking sensors
Fulll leather seats
Electric memory seats
Front heated screen
Rear headphone sockets
Armrests
puddle lamps

Haven't owned the car from new so not sure if any of these were added as extras

My 2011 XS, has the following as standard above GS. 17 inch 5 split alloys, Sat Nav, Part leather electric heated (non memory) seats, front parking sensors, heated front screen and washer jets, Map reading lamps and auto dimming interior mirror.

It seems to me that unless you crave leather seats the model to go for is the "S" TD4. About 2 grand cheaper than the GS and 6 grand cheaper than the XS but has all the essentials like Terrain Response and Auto option.

I say this from the perspective of a private buyer and non farmer using proprietary diesel from a high street petrol station and unable to claim any tax write off nor employer subsidy.  MY 09 GS manual in Lago Grey, Wood Co arm rest and side bumper strips - now sold.

MY 15 SD4 SE Auto Orkney Grey with colour coded Bumper Door Mouldings

I didn't think the 'S' had Terrain Response as standard. Does it? Past: FL2 TD4 HSE Auto
Evoque SD4 Dynamic Lux Auto
Present: Audi A3 S Line.

Terrain response was on option on 4wd 'S' until 2011MY at which point it became standard.

Might be stating the obvious but it's not available on 2wd

Callanhocknull,
I've owned my 58 S now for around 6 months. If I was to buy another, would go for the XS. Basically for me the manual seats don't have enough lumbar support. Unlike the elec seats on the XS or higher specs. Landy has now gone.
