    Exterior and interior plastics

    If I have missed posts on this site I apologise but I am reading on another site of purchasers complaining about the poor quality of the plastics which mark easily and are impossible to restore to pristine condition.
    Has anyone here had this experience?

    Not yet, everything feels pretty solid, there is a few soft touch materials on the door cards but easily wiped. There's a few cheap scratchy plastics lower down but nothing that isn't on other LR products.

    The exterior plastics are as per the D4, easily cleaned, they only ones that are a bit harder to maintain is the gloss black plastics on the pillars.

    I should add mines SE and doesn't have the gloss black plastics that the dynamic pack cars have.

    Overall I'm impressed with the fit and finish.

    The plastic around the door handles is really cheap and mine is marked (I'm sending it back and gonna ask for an new door card). I have the gloss plastic outside - let's see how resilient it is.

    My vehicle was delivered to me with discolouration (clouding) on the Narvik Black panel in front of the NS door mirror. Whether this happened in the factory or the body shop prior to delivery I dont know !!
