the mpg indicator is accurate on mine, I've found.
No speed limiter though...doesn't have really any new software and the facelift infotainment would have been better not being put on to be honestMike

Have you not found the speed limiter yet then 2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4
2017 to date: FFRR SDV8

Agreed and impressed with the mpg so far especially given not run in and the horrendous bank holiday traffic
Bought through Stratstone - a good trade in value and a fair deal for a 16 plate pre reg that was 29 days old

Ill say no - Mine has the speed limit warning - but they all have that, it doesn't have speed limiter - like the RRS, FFRR, Evoque or DS has - with a button you select to turn on etc.Mike

Okay, I must be thinking of the speed warning then. Is there a device to actually limit the top speed on these other cars?2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4

Yes - well more set the speed that you dont want the car to exceed
Works like cruise control...so you can see a 40mph zone - hit the button set press (like you would the set speed in cruise control) and you can go up and down with the accelerator but not exceed the set speed - very weird feeling sometimes. we have it on one of our carsMike

Now a Landmark owner
Well after a week and a bit of ownership I must say very impressed so far, here are a couple of photos as requested, a few bits to add like mud flaps, but it was too nice a day to be playing with cars, so took the canoe and went for a paddle on the river with my wife instead.
Hopefully it will be as reliable as my HSE Freelander, in three years it only needed rear high level brake light (under warranty) as it started leaking and a set of rear brake pads on the last service.

Potentially yes but it's a lightweight composite one and weighs less than 20 kilos, being extremely careful, not tried fishing from it just leisurely paddles on rivers canal, and lakes
