Which model

Hi All great site, about to take the plunge but choice confusing me initially thought it easy a fully spec'd Pure, went to dealer and computer said No as Zenon lights now not available on Pure so back to the drawing boardCrying I know they re only lights or are they, my first question is do the Zenons make that much difference, if they do then Im looking at the Prestige or Dynanic with just a few toys extra. Im swayed towards the Dynamic wrt the suspension although a little concerned at the lower entry level at front grill and rear when venturing off the beaten track, has anyone found this an issue, Prestige beter entry at grill but no Dynamic suspension. I also wonder apart from the cosmetics between the Pure and Prestige is there anything structurally different with the cars as they will not fit the Dynamic type suspension on a Pure but will on a Prestige. Great looking cars though. Once above cleared up its on to colour schemes and find a buyer for my Freelander in x months time

Yes, in general (i have them too) but don't forget that there was a period were you couldn't have them

RE: Which model

I like the exhaust on the Dynamic, but went for the prestige because I prefer the seats in them. The Xenons also make it look cool. I have never driven with them at night, but they're supposed to be a lot better. Looking forward to testing them.

Which model

The bottom front apron on my Dynamic is already flaking paint and that's just from stone chips not off roading.

Personally I don't think the magnaride shocks are that great either. I prefer the handling in 'standard' mode.

I'm going to need a 5dr soon so will sell my 3dr Dynamic and my next one will be a 5dr Prestige with Lux pack. The only thing I noticed wrong was that you can't spec a black roof only silver? The black means that the pano roof looks all in one on the black contrast roof.

Now Sold - Small, clean, fun car mainly for me - Sd4 Dynamic Lux - White/Black roof

Still going strong - Big, dirty, fun car mainly for the wife, kids and dog - Disco 4 - Blue (with lots of mud outside, sweets & litter inside)

The 'standard mode' is still magnaride if you have adaptive dynamics on your car.

RE: Which model

The halogens are acceptable if you cannot order them now. Maybe later before build time you can change them. Just a thought!
