Thanks everyone
The D4 was a 7 seater but I only used row 3 maybe once a year if that in the last couple of years. Only one of the 3 kids is at home but he's at uni. So went for the 5 seater and spent the money on paint instead
Inside it ebony leather with oyster headlining, and the aluminium trim finishers - the idea was to break up the black a bit but they are much darker than I imagined. And the black is because I live in jeans. And I wasn't sure about the 2 tone steering wheel.
As for the rear end we have much smaller plates but because mine are black with silver letters/numbers I don't think it looks too bad, certainly in combination with the Silicon Silver. But tastes differ.

RyanRC your properly right about the tow hitch the D5 has a big back side. IndusD4 here in the UK the SE
leather is black or acorn. I went for the acorn which am very pleased with its not as light as the almond which is on the HSE so it's easier to keep clean but still looks luxurious.

Funny you should say that RyanRC.
Was sitting right behind a black one at the traffic lights yesterday evening in town for the first time, and had a proper look at the rear. It did not have a tow bar, nor a deployable one either, as you can tell from the different patterned tow eye covers.
I agree the towbar does seem too break up the rear and detracts from the rears aesthetics, and gives it a bit of ruffty tuffty look so too speak.
Also saw a white one with no tow bar in the shopping car park last night, at it looked bland.
Not sure if a deployable towbar is offered in the States or in Oz though ???
Majority of LR up here have towbars for trailers, horseboxes or caravans.
I think its a crying shame that people are buying them just for vanitys sake and not even realising the cars full potential. On the flip side there are people who dont own a trailer so there is no need for a towbar. Everyone has different needs.
I have noticed that the so called Driveway Trophies, like the Mrs fondly calls them, like the Audi Q7/5, Mercs and BMWs are very rarely fitted with a tow bar. I could probably count on 1 hand the amount i have seen with a tow bar or even towing. As rare as hens teeth so too speak.
It seems these brands are attracting more people who dont need too tow or use for offroading, and its more of a case of look at me, with their so called expensive German brands. $$$$$££££££
If anything i think its the FFRR drivers up here that look down on the Disco peasants.
Mind you as the saying goes in Scotland, its not a proper Land Rover if there is not a tow bar fitted

I agree with the last post I’ve got a tow bar but it’s detachable, I will have to have it fitted so it looks good and I can be part of the gang

Will that be the Famous 5 or Secret 7 Chalkey?
Second thoughts will leave the above for the German brands
