That is a good looking version... Are your wheels all alloy? Or are they black in the middle of them?

jaapv · Jul 20, 2014

Standard alloys

I'm not sure, but I'm almost positive you have different coloured wheels than we do here in Australia...

They look the same as the UK ones.

AU alloys has black centers. Others has silver centers, why I don't know.

Phew! Glad I'm not going nuts! Now to scour the internet to find ones with silver centres....

The alloys with black center are the same as standard on the upgraded petrol/diesel version.

None of ours have the alloy centres here in Australia, just the painted black ones, and to be honest I think it destroys the look of the whole car, but then again I'm not a fan of black wheels altogether, so that may have something to do with it too...

I like the look of jaapv's side protection bars/sills; an option that doesn't seem to be available in the UK

maddogsetc · Aug 5, 2014

Just looked at Goldie's pics, it's surprising how many differences there are to the UK spec!

I actually really like the Aussie wheels with the black centres - it's a shame we're so far apart as I'd happily swap :lol:

I also prefer the black and chrome treatment around the foglights/Drl's. Much nicer than the ugly dull grey ones we get.

I like the black cills and wheel arch trims too - reminiscent of the early Discovery-3, but I'm not sure whether I prefer them to UK painted style.

There's so many variations between international versions, I'm starting to wonder if there's scope for some sort of mutual co-operation for those of us who want to access options that are retrofit-able and not available in our own markets?

Careful - I'll take you up on that offer! I hate the black centres, I think yours look much better..

Sounds good to me - how about we start with the folding mirrors, then we'll move on to the others lol

In all seriousness, do you not get power mirrors at all? If yes I'd have thought it's more a software matter than hardware. If you just need a source of powered mirrors I'd be happy to try and get a GBP price for you.

In exchange I'd be very interested in getting a set of those black and chrome fog-light cowls... :mrgreen:

hi, with regard to alloys with the black centres, I asked the salesman and he said he would 'unofficially' swop them with the wheels from the Diesel version (here in the UK the Diesel can be got with the black centres, the PHEV are officially all-silver) when mine comes in...cant wait!
