Congrats!! Nice color combination. I am expecting a detailed review after u put some miles on it. I really want the new RR but wanna make sure I wait a bit to reduce any teething issues.

Thanks guys!
The interior is amazing to look at and the fit and finish is really well done. The decrease of 50% of the buttons which they incorporated into the NAV screen is more for looks then functionality. It takes more effort to turn on heated or ventilated/massage seats, and many other functions. Still a vast improvement over previous years, but you should not expect much from the Brits in this department, look at Bentleys Nav systems.
The other TFT screen for the speedometer is controversial in reviews in that it appears cheap for such a car. I have no issue with it.

It really does feel faster then a CTT, both being stock. There was a lot of turbo lag in the CTT, and no lag with a SC. Car and Driver did 60 in 4.4seconds and manufacturer estimates 5.1 seconds for the new Rover. I might be doing a pully and tune later on.
The RR is just so much more roomy and luxurious in comparison and gives up very little performance to the CTT.

The utter smoothness of the drive makes it feel so special. The Bentleys, MB, Lexus, and BMW; don't feel so smooth and luxurious. There are many articles stating the same thing, but in CAR magazine they compare it to a Mulsane, Phantom, Ferrari FF, and Rapide. It came in first place, as the best car in the world, when comparing the whole package of luxury, performance, drivability, and something else.

Grrrrrrr!! Envy!!! I'm still waiting for mine to arrive! My dealer called me last week to tell me that another 6 weeks of delay! Its the second time. Next time i will just go for standard specs. These news of Land Rover delaying the deliveries are really true.
I think that in the mean time i will get bored of waiting, and just pick up whatever my dealer has in stock.

Anyways, congratulations on yours! You're spec its really close to mine.

Thanks for all the kind words mates.

Just got the garage done with new cabinets and race deck floors. Much more room to park now then what the previous cabinets allowed.

Enjoy to the best of health! Btw what color combo did you go for on the inside? Also did you figure out what "stealth mode" is/does?

Btw the white looks badass

Thanks, got the espresso seats with almond leather dash and door sills. Tried the stealth mode but not sure what it did. Will ask them, God knows I'm not reading the owners manual.
