Must confess I'm a little nervous about buying a Land Rover - and an entirely new model at that - without personally going over the car and test driving it. Although the last LR I've owned was a new 2007 LR3 (D3) HSE that was flawless in the 3-4 years I owned it and drove it daily.

So USA spec HSE gets the 20” alloy wheel that we get with the SE. In Europe the HSE gets Diamond turned style 5095 as factory standard issue. Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed! |

You are absolutely right, it does feel much more impressive inside the car however. I do a lot of work at an Ex-LRE venue that has a slope of a similar angle and surface, I'd be pretty disappointed if any fairly modern 4wd was not able to do the same. The old 110s do it, the 90 will do it a bit but does tend to try and have a bit of a hop and skip on the rear axle, the Disco 5 will do the same.....as will the Shogun Sport! The pickups do struggle a bit, the rear wheels tend to scrabble about and want to slide a bit with the slope and slight camber but they will do it with care. Chris |

agree, maybe just have the 110 bonnet decal, also on some other pictures i have seen,
the back door is totally black as well, so seems a colour theme through the centre of the vehicle yet another pommie bar steward down under MY20 110 P400 SE Defender MY10 3.0 RR Sport |

Black bonnet, black roof and black rear door was the colour scheme of the run out Adventure Special Edition of the old Defender

well picked up Tim, i tried buying an adventure a few years back on the last run outs in Australia, but the dealers wanted $20K over list.. so did not go with it.. apparently if you bought a heritage and put it away, could be worth double the money in OZ  yet another pommie bar steward down under

I had one on order to replace my 2nd Evoque, in that orange too, but after a day with a 110 XS I cancelled the order and bought the RRS HSE D in 2015 instead. Most of those Orange ones and the G4 Defenders that I have seen have faded quite badly so I’m glad I didn’t go for a Phoenix Orange one in the end. I would imagine that if that one isn’t a Photoshop image it is wrapped 110. Looks great in photos.
