Metropolis LE
I very nearly went for a Metropolis LE rather than the HSE but I'm glad I didn't. Saw one in the flesh today and it's too tacky for me, bits of chrome here and there on the outside. Not saying it's bad but just not to my taste.
However, the improvements to the interior are nice with some silver finishing around the cup holders etc. Does anyone know if you can order these parts for the interior as I would like some for mine. The Ebony trim is just a bit too black everywhere!
Thanks

Hope you like it, picking up my HSE on Tuesday. What colour are you having?

Yes, I put it in my HSE.
It is in the LR accessory brochure. If you need more info, pm me.Matt

I have fitted the gear lever surround which I am pleased with. I also fitted the cup holder surrounds but took them off because I felt with these also it looked a bit too shiny and out of place.

Looks good D3Matt thanks. I'll speak to the dealer next week and order the bits. Any idea what they cost?
The list price is £85+VAT. However, you should be able to get a discount. Your dealer should give you 10% at least, but if you ask you should be able to get 15% easy enough. Or buy from the group discount on this forum and get 20% off, but then you'll have to pay for delivery anyway.Matt

Saw one today at the Scone Game Fair. On the back it just said TDV6. Is there nothing to show that its not bottom of the range (other than the wheels, fin etc that only spotters like us will clock?)
As I've said before, the TDV8 must be close if LR are wasting our time with this.
