That's the North American version. It may well be a different part number altogether though, so (again) a software update wouldn't resolve.
Whilst small, the current mini stop light must meet EU standards. -

Thank you for illustrating, now we know there is a difference on the market configurations on the image I posted and the OP. So, this is an opportunity for a modification!
Who will the first to change to NA spec brake lights? Does is just require change of cluster or CCF modification?

I'd rather they just fixed the lights I have.

So I wonder what LR would say when people start getting stopped by the Police or are involved in an accident where some one runs into the back of you

Hi,
Just in from my Dealers:-
Click image to enlarge
ITEM DESCRIPTION
1 Side marker lamp
2 Turn signal indicator
3 Tail lamp
4 Tail lamp
5 Reverse lamp
6 Stop lamp
7 Tail lamp
8 Electrical connector
The tail lamp assembly is a two piece unit. The tail lamp assembly - outer is fixed to the body of the vehicle and the tail lamp assembly - inner is fixed to the tailgate.
The tail lamp assemblies have the following functions:
Tail lamp assembly - outer: Tail/Turn signal indicator and stop lamp
Tail lamp assembly - inner: Tail and reverse lamp
The tail lamp assembly - outer is located in a recess in the vehicle body and the tail lamp assembly - inner in a recess in the tailgate.
REAR STOP/TAIL LAMPS
The stop lamp is a Light Emitting Diode (LED) and is activated when the ignition is in ignition power mode 6 or above and the stop lamp switch is active (by depressing the brake pedal). The High Mounted Stop Lamp (HMSL) will also be activated when the brake pedal is pressed. The stop lamps can also be activated by the Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) control module. The ABS control module sends a FlexRay message to the Body Control Module/Gateway Module (BCM/GWM) assembly which supplies power to the stop lamps and HMSL.
For additional information, refer to: Braking Control System (206-11 Brake Controls, Description and Operation).
The tail lamps are operated by selecting side lamps or headlamps on the lighting control switch. The tail lamps can be switched on at all times and are not dependent on power mode. The tail lamps will also be illuminated when the lighting control switch is in the 'AUTO' position and a 'lights on' signal is received by the BCM/GWM assembly from the rain/light sensor.
TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR
The turn signal indicator is a Light Emitting Diode (LED) and located next to the tail lamp.
The turn signal indicators are operated by the left steering column multifunction switch or by the hazard warning lamp switch. The left steering column multifunction switch is only active with the ignition in power mode 6, the hazard warning lamp switch is active at all times. When active, the turn signal indicators will flash at a frequency cycle of 400ms on 400ms off.
Bottom line - Lights are functioning "as intended".

This gets better and better...
Went to tow the caravan tonight (we head off on holiday tomorrow) and the tow bar won't deploy. The tow bar icon no longer appears on the info screen either. Not impressed at all. We're on our 3rd Land Rover assist callout and the car has also been back to the dealer - we've only had the thing 10 days!
So far this car has been nothing but trouble and it's not helped by Land Rover Assist sending people out who have computer tablets that don't have new enough software to talk to the Discovery 5.
