Very nice how did you get the dynamic front vents? I was told they were not available on commercial?
After seeing the defender I’m looking at going this route and would be interested to see how the rear seat looks, think that looks really smart i normally have silver but am thinking on changing next time round

I’ll take some more pictures for you tomorrow hopefully
It’s in Eiger Grey and does look really smart. Had the choice of black which looked stunning but not sure I could live with it full time. Already have the T6 and Audi A5 in black and that’s enough cleaning for anyone
As for the Dynamic pack it was ordered that way I believe. I bought it as a pre registered one because of the bench seat and not having to wait for one to be built.

May have
It certainly a posh van indeed
Looked up the price of tyres which make me want to cry. I get through my fair share of tyres where I live especially if SWMBO has been out

With the bench seat, which btw looks higher up and more comfortable than the dire standard ones, what’s the score with tax?

It matches its driver
Just realised one problem though, as it has the electric deployable tow bar which is an issue with my towing eye on the plant trailer
Luckily I don’t use that trailer

Yes, still a commercial. £265 Tax.
Back seat is awful to be fair. I wouldn’t want to sit there for long but that’s never going to be my worry
It does push you high up to the point my head hits the roof. Will be perfect for the occasional passenger which is all I wanted.

Do the rear windows open?

No the rear windows don’t open. No switches fitted front or rear for them unlike my D4.
