While the HVAC vents are oddly placed (the center ones sit so low, that they freeze your hands while holding the steering wheel)...the Climate (AC) in my 2008 Full Size RR HSE was really, really great. Both my '07 & '08 AC in my X5s were horrible...really horrible. RR HSE has great AC!!

As with many people on this forum I considered the RR Sport prior to both my current X5's purchase and the 2008 Touareg I leased. I found the rear seat to be cramped, the audio/climate systems to be dated and the fit and finish left much to be desired. The icing on the cake? When the sales person was discussing the wonderful backup camera however upon shifting into reverse the screen went black with an error code. OOPS!

My previous full sized Supecharged RR had a better rear view camera and roomier interior. It also had more amenities but should for a 100k vehicle. Too bad it was in the shop so much. I live a little over an hour away from the dealer so it was very inconvenient. I also liked not seeing a RR every couple minutes while driving like I do with BMW's. But there is a reason for that...
