The luxury (premium) car mat con? Don't upgrade mats until you've read this! - ytshome - 13-11-2011 08:41pm
Hi everyone, I'm after some advice on car mats. I have the SD4 Prestige, which comes as standard with the top of the range car mats and from new we also bought and have used since then the rubber ones as it gets dirty at the farm where we have our horse stabled.
The thing is that we are off to Gleneagles in the morning so the cars been washed, polished and hoovered and the premium mats put into replace the rubber ones but I was a little under-whelmed given that they are apparently the best ones and wondered if anyone out there knows whether I've been given the right ones. The sticker on the mats states "BJ3M-130A22-DB8 PVJ throw in mar - L538 - Ebony Part Number 300269-703. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help. YT

Not really sure this helps, but from LR website
Premium Carpet Mat Set
Deep pile carpet with waterproof backing.
Ebony – Part No: VPLVS0094PVJ
Espresso - Part No: VPLVS0094AAM
Lunar – Part No: VPLVS0094LAA
Rubber Mat Set
Part No: VPLVS0123PVJ
Also, when I got original spec to build, there was a "Carpet Mats With Edging (079AJ)" which was optional on Pure and standard on Dynamic, and a "Premium Carpet Mat with Edging (079CA)" which was an upgrade for the Dynamic and standard on Prestige. However, that was in April and things may have changed

If I have got the correct mats, then it seems to me that LandRover's pricing is rude in the extreme. Yes there is a nice Evoque sign in alluminium but other than that they dont seem any more luxurious than a £15.00 set of costco specials, infact probably not much more than half the thickness of the costco set.

I seem to have ended up with two different types of carpet mat sets in each of our Evoques. The set in the Dynamic Coupe are the usual standard fairly thin mats you seem to get in all cars these days. They have the border edging and the metal Evoque badge and are a uniform dark grey/black that matches the rest of the interior carpet.
On my Dynamic Plus 5 door I received a set of much deeper pile mats that feel vastly better quality and are more of salt and pepper look in terms of slightly different colours within the pile. They also have the border edging and metal Evoque badges. I've replaced both sets with the rubber mats for winter but will try and dig them out at some point and take a pic.

I really appreciate that. It sounds like I have been given the thinner set. You certainly couldn't call them deep pile carpets. I just wonder if any prestige owners could comment on theirs. Thanks again YT
