Didn't order the car at all! Was really trying hard to buy a used (1.5 y/o) D4, but totally failed in my mission when I saw the Orkney just in and PDI'd and ready for the showroom. It didn't have privacy glass, being a standard XS, so got them to add the tints.
The pano was done with a pano head and ptgui. Didn't do a proper job - it was just a "quick and dirty". Might do a proper one at a later date.
Loving the car - smoother and quieter than the W212 Merc!

OK, so how can you tell the difference? And, what is the difference? And does it really matter?!

Sorry - but what is the difference!?
Tints are effectively transfers / film on the inside of the windows?
Is privacy glass the actual window glass that is darker?
Are there any other advantages to PG as opposed to tints? I presume tints are generally cheaper?

Yes ...it also hides the antennas
for me its just personal prefrence ...i wouldnt have tints ...it would have to be privacy glass .
i have the same antennas in the back ...you just cant see them with privacy

Out of interest, can it be retrofitted? Presumably it's available in case a window gets broken.D4 HSE, Active Rear Diff, surround cameras, adaptive xenons, heated steering wheel, TPMS, remote park heating, centre console cooler box

So £400 for privacy.
How much do tints cost for a similar effect?D4 XS MY12 Galway
