    Looking good

    Your rear lights are different to mine. Did you opt for the signature rear lights?

    Not sure. This as been pointed out to me earlier. I did get the upgraded front lights. I thought it came with that. To be honest I didn't know they were different from anyone else's until someone said .

    If you went for the adaptive headlights then that would it explain it as it gains signature rear lights.

    yeah, i was studying the brochure in detail for the SE and there is small print that says if you go for the adaptive headlights on front then the signature rear lights come swell (standard on HSE) - which just looks like they light up the lower half of the rear light.

    Anymore joy in getting the 3rd row seats to fold flat properly ? do they click down into a locked position to hold them down ?

    Not tried to flatten seats recently as we are away with the caravan and the back of the car has lounges and a bbq in it . With the weather we have been having they've not moved. Although in Oban now and weather really nice.

    I knew there was something I was to do, I've just been out in it too.

    I'm back

    When I push down on them they go flat and stay flat but with the movement of the car they return back to the slight slope, there doesn't seem to be any form of locking mechanism like the D4. I'm hoping it's to do with the leather being new. Hopefully someone orders an S spec soon and we can compare leather 3rd row and cloth 3rd row.

    Thanks - do you have a boot liner ? Wondering if it would have enough weight to keep them flat

    The standard boot liner stops at the base of the rear seats, you'd need the boot liner extension to cover the seats when they are flat. I didn't go for it because I wasn't sure where to store it when the seats were up.

    It's the 3rd row Stuart we have an issue with when they're flat.

    But no I've yet to get a bootliner, I've got the LR boot tidy full of junk keeping one flat. I may just pop it in to the dealers next time I pass for them to have a quick look.

    Oh my mistake.

    Mine stayed flat from the start but I've now got a bootliner (which seems a few mm too wide for the car?! and you have to take a stanley knife to it to make it fit around the left hand seatbelt if you don't have the additional aircon unit in the boot) and a pile of Isabella chairs in the back so no chance they are going anywhere.

    I have my old heavy rubber mat from my D4 laid in the back and they are still sat up a good inch or more.
    I don't know if you can see it in the photo but here goes.
