Thanks they are more Cream than white but think it will look good i prefer the 16inch wheels plus Winter Tyres are better and cheaper in 235 on a 16 .
They will be used in harsh conditions in the the Alps |

never understand people who think reversing sensors matter more than what they can actually flipping see.
Never forget a roadtrip to southern morocco - chap in a polo breadvan reversed into a series 1 and said 'didn't see it'. chap was sat behind the wheel with a brilliant look on his face - 'dave, when reversing, things generally come from behind'. perfect timing i'll bear that in mind - think the bowler one will suit..christmas present to myself perhaps!

Wheels on only issue is the spare doesn't fit the existing housing so need to find a solution, happy with the 4 that are on though.

I bought it from a French independent LR dealer who bought it and imported it to France from the Italian JLR dealership where it had been a demo vehicle. |
