Spec decisions!

Now 14MY is available, I'm tempted with one of the following

XS Dynamic with
"Dynamic plus pack",
"climate pack",
privacy glass
front parking sensors (for the wife - fair swap etc!)

Or...

HSE with
privacy glass
rear spoiler

In both instances, not bothered about colour - just not white.

Can anyone advise how things are in terms of XS Dynamic and resale valve? I plan to keep until Freelander replacement arrives

Any comments

Depends on your budget at the end of the day. If you can afford to get the HSE to begin with, then do it, as you'll only end up kicking yourself a few months down the line wondering "what if". I buy all my cars outright, and have to take what I can afford at the time, or hold on until I have saved a few quid. Personally, prefer to do the latter. My 2012 HSE I liked...within 2 months of getting it, I drove the 2013 HSE Lux, and just knew I had to have it. Granted, it took a further 8 months, but well worth it in the long run. If I had the budget (and patience) this time last year, I would have waited and ordered it first time around. Foraging near Gaydon....

Im in a similar dilema. If I choose another FL2 it will either be a Dynamic with the plus pack, parking sensors, heating steering wheel or opt for a HSE with bodykit - actually only about 」500 difference between the two, on the plus side HSE has afew added luxuries but in constrast the Dynamic would have two tone seats. Now - 2017 BMW X3 M Sport Carbon Black

how much is xs dynamic ?
whats a hse costing presently??


shopping time for me next year time I got back on the programme, new RRS is unlikely 」50k + is just too much to send on any car full stop.

nearly new old shape RRS tempts. or wait 2 years and get a near new new shape.


or now kids have grown up a bit, less baby/kid stuff to carry FL2 back on cards? At work

You know it makes sense and besides you won't be on the receiving end of comments like "another hard up farmer in his poncy RRS" Smile MY 09 GS manual in Lago Grey, Wood Co arm rest and side bumper strips - now sold.

I still haven't decided whether I can afford a new RRS yet. Big Cry Hopefully decide next month, but with all of the delays I doubt that it would censor March/April delivery! Big Cry

Might have to get a new FL2. Wink
