I just looked at the pictures so I'm not sure about any other bits of seat spec, if any........

Its ivory. I believe Galloway green has been dropped as well and the the style 5s on the prestige are no longer diamond turned.

RE: MY13 specs revealed

It would be nice if the RRS new colour Causeway Grey was available on RRE, Galway Green was not a big seller which is a pity because in the flesh it looks good on an Evoque

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

Let the Evoque wear the Land Rover badge with pride.

Totally agree!

When asked I tell people I drive a Land Rover and only reveal it is the RRE when pressed for the specifics.

There was definitely a choice of two colours for the new dynamic seat options, one light (ivory) and one dark (ebony/black?). They looked very nice but would love to see them in the flesh..... Yes, there was a new replacement for the green colour on the PDF that I saw....

Stupid question - What is Diamond Turning? How will they look different?

From my experience on BMW and MBenz, the rims are gouged using a diamond cutting tool, so you see a series of fine ridges.

Trouble is if you kerb it, they are very difficult to repair as matching the finish is near impossible, as I know to my cost.

Yep, no chance of touching up the style 5's because of the ridges. For those that don't know and wondering it is a smooth finish and the ridges are only noticeable from quite close quarters.

It pains me every time I look at the gauged rim. Kerbed it when I had to move closer to the card reader on the car park barrier at the place I am currently working. Couldn't reach as the reader was way below the window line. So much for being higher upRolling Eyes

RE: MY13 specs revealed

does anyone know if the new my13 dynamic with the prestige type seats , means we now get the seat cushion tilt adjustment option in a dynamic? (e.g. the 8way adjustable, currently only available on the prestige or dynamic plus here in australia)

If so.......

oh boy I'm seriously considering ordering a dynamic!

SD4 Pure, Auto, 5 dr, Mauritius Blue, Pure Tech Pack, Reversing Camera, Front parking aid, Heated seats, Sat Nav, mud flaps. after market tint.

RE: MY13 specs revealed

The MY13 Dynamic Plus Prestige Seat does include tilt for the driver (they are still 8/6 way so no tilt for passenger seat). Not sure how well the new Ivory seats will go with the grey Lunar contrast. I’m keen to see a real photo rather than the artist’s impression in the PDF.
