Will the roof spoiler reduce the amount of dirt my tailgate attracts? If so very tempted...
Though presumably it's not compatible with the ladder
Uh, tailgate, no
only made for aesthetics...
"We did start the project with the spoiler having a 'turning vein', this deflects air down the rear window and would help to keep it clean. Problem here is to achieve this the top surface of the spoiler has to be higher than the vehicle roof. If you venture higher than the vehicle roof you introduce drag and noise = more fuel."
He also reckons that the spoiler will not fit with the rear ladder attached

It's not that the pack is bad per se, but rather that it takes a ruggedly handsome beast and tries to make it to pretty: D3 in metrosexual makeover shock.

"Optimism doesn't come naturally to us sheep shaggers," Mr Griff admits. "But things just might be starting to look cheery."

My 2p worth. I don't like any of it, but I'm sure I could probably live with the revised front & rear (will it reduce approach/departure angles?) & even the colour coding.
But the spoiler is hideous & probably useless.
The rear lights look very similar in style to those favoured by the owners of souped up Saxo's & Corsa's etc. They just look so "aftermarket" IMO.
Each to their own of course, but I reckon the designers did a brilliant job first time round!

Love chiny bits 8) Nick any prices yet so I can start ordering the good bits of the kit? The new rear lights are hideous. They look like those cheap aftermarket tuning bits.
LR Switzerland does not order the kit, they find it will not sell .
Not your cheap plastic stuff anymore
proper billeted polished alloy
