They are great cars and miles and miles removed from the DS. I've driven the DS a few times when mine has been serviced and it's my least favourite car in the range I've said it in another thread so forgive me for repeating myself but I honestly believe that the Disco 5 is the best value car that Land Rover makes.
I think that the HSE trim is great and has a really impressive spec but I wouldn't rule out the HSE Lux as second hand the difference in price is negligible if you shop around and it does add a few nice extras.

My 2Ltr HSE came with 22"'s (285/40x22 tyres) and its quieter than the D4 on 20's or 21's. OK, you need to keep a close eye on kerbs (even more so with gloss black alloys
)

Now gone - D5 HSE 2Ltr in Corris with black roof, black & dynamic packs & 22" black alloys, a bit of a change after 2 D3's and 2 D4's

Many thanks for those replies. Collected a one year old 3.0 HSE today.
Really pleased, if a little peed off when I got home
Hopefully get that sorted next week. eBay wasn’t helpful. -

Apologies for the late reply. Had the same issue. Known problem. Replaced with a new set, with new gaskets. New ones have fallen off as well, so awaiting a third set. Ridiculous to be falling off when powerwashing, especially on a premium vehicle. No issues with my car ever which is half the price

Equilibrium, yes the small bit of the door lock trim as in the photo. Got a shock when it first fell off. (I am sure I put up photos in a previous post somewhere but I can't find them). Powerwasher was not even on full blast at the time and I was standing 6 foot away. There was a campaign on Topix regarding this. The garage told me it had something to do with the rubber seal/gasket. Well the replacements seemed alot tighter, but now after several months have both become loose again. You can easily take them off by hand. Car looked hideous with the trim missing. Looked as if someone had tried too pry it off and break in, attracting unwanted attention from passersby. Just as well I asked for the old ones back, as now stuck the spare one in until it gets the replacements. I agree, no need for the ill fitting bits. Probably the most touched part of the car when entering and exiting, so surely these areas of high contact should be really sturdy?

Alarmingly hopeless
I'm currently putting up with the misaligned tailgate (at least I assume that's why my tailgate doesn't open 95% of the time unless I use the filthy button and handle) and a not-quite-right remote start function (engine switches off when the brake pedal is touched).
They are just full of these little issues that scream that they couldn't be bothered to test properly or fix known design issues years into the prod run (tailgate issues on MY2020s FFS).

That's ridiculous, cars half way through its mid life cycle and still the same recurring issues since launch.
Got man to the moon and back 50 years ago ffs, and can't even use a spirit level to align the boot. Well it's all laser levels now. Maybe LR just do things by 👀 only
By the time the issues have finally been ironed out, the D6 will have arrived and the circle of life will have started again

Exactly that Road Runner
I forgot to mention the keyless locking which only works 66% of the time too. I've had a Toyota with this for 7+ years and never once encountered it not working, but LR have not managed to perfect it (my first one was fine, maybe 95% success rate, so it's just yet another example of random crapness).
