Does anyone else hate privacy glass?
As title. Been out of the fold since October. Didn't expect to be back before D5, but here I am looking. I was intending on an F Pace, but have gone off that idea. Anyway back to the point, it seems 90% of used D4's have privacy glass and I just don't like the look of it from the outside.Rich

Personally I wouldn't want to be without it.
Good privacy glass has little effect when you view out of the window but is dark enough on the outside to give privacy.
I dislike "privacy glass", oversize & "flash" wheels, too much chrome & all Bling.

I totally agree, when I was looking for a black D4, almost all of them had privacy glass, I just thought it made them look like vans (although obviously most people like it).
I did eventually find one without and I am very happy with it.
