Dynamic v Prestige

I have sat in both. I prefer the prestige interior, then again the Dynamic was the red black leather combo which I do not like. The Dynamic body kit does look the goods though.

The Dynamic has the option of brushed aluminium,textured aluminium or gloss black fillet on the dash - so glad mine came with the Textured Aluminium as when I saw the gloss black one I wasn't sure it it was meant to be textured "piano black" or textured patent leather. Both the original and the new 2012 brochures I have show the Aluminium looking like brushed Aluminium but on mine it has "spots" of matt finish all over, which makes it the textured option. I've always preferred Range rovers with proper wood on the dash but the Aluminium suits the all black interior and gives it a bit of a brightness.

I think to wood is getting a bit old fashioned now and the aluminium does suit to modern design

I'm not really a fan of Piano Black though and the pre 2010 FFRR's did their wood really well with not too much. The RRS's "wood" was the first wood I have encountered that had a razor sharp edge on it so instead of getting splinters you got a cut if you accidentally ran a finger along the edge of one of the dash/transmission tunnel hockey sticks

Ok I am swaying towards the Dynamic more & more so my next question would be Velocity or Verve interior to match the exterior red/black roof?

With the red exterior the verve interior isn't quite so in your face! IMHO its a good combination, it would probably take the Strata IP finisher better than the Velocity does too. Are you going for a Plus?I ask because the Velocity is the interior of the Dynamic Plus, Verve is the interior of the "non" Plus car. In the Plus the red interior is called Agility and on the non plus car the ebony interior is called the Vortex............ confusing isn't it?

I've got the brushed aluminium on the centre console and the Macassar wood finisher on the dash, which I think looks classically cool!!!

Incidentally it seems more discussion here is on Pure vs. Dynamic. Is Prestige not very popular in the UK?

It is with me, but I'd prefer the Dynamic exterior.

Yeah sorry the choice is between the standard all black or the red stripe interior. As I mentioned my exterior is Red with black contrast roof.
