Default Well...I did it....

Couldn't supress my love for the full size RR. I finally found one with my short list;
Under 30,000 miles HSE (LR certified for the 100K/7 years warranty)
6 Cyl
Black with Almond interior
2018-2019 (In my price range)

I truly loved my D-5 and I will miss it.

If anyone around Albany NY has a need for some pristine 20" Blizzak tires with less than 5,000 miles, or a front set of WeatherTech mats let me know, I will be putting them on EBay soon.

Every time I drove the RR I would love it. After when I got back in my Disco and started driving it....I loved that too. I just loved the RR a little more. I couldn't pass this one up. It was hardly used, in fact most of the factory plastic protector items like on the upper hand assist handles and vents still had never been taken off. Unreal.
I will say....This D-5 forum is awesome..lots of posters. The RR forum is kinda dead...

What do I miss about the D-5?
Storage! I miss the little cubby in back of the radio...The little storage bins in the very rear...the extra pullout on the top of the seats...and to top it off...this one also has the cold compartment in the armrest.
Not alot of extra room in the RR, but it seems bigger and def drives bigger.
All in all...glad I made the switch.

I notice the back of the front seats in the 21MY has lost the top storage pocket in favor of neater integration with the clip-n-go system. Bad idea imho.
Not sure if the storage behind the radio or under the cup holders is still there.

What pullout on the top of the seats? Do you mean the one on the front seat bottom that makes the seat bottom longer (deeper)?

I assumed he meant the fact the D5 has (had) two map pockets in the back of the front seats, an upper and lower one.

The ones on the backs of the front seats. There are 2, one on the bottom one on top near the headrest. Handy for papers etc.
