    The Australian 2010 Order Guide states that almond leather gets arabica upper door trim and almond upper door trim for the 2.7's standard cloth seats.

    I' saw an HSE with Almond interior and it had arabica upper door trim. I didn't particularly notice the insert but thought the overall appearace looked good.

    I must say that the Meteor looks good with the Nutmeg and Almond.

    Seeing photos of yours is making me very jealous I can't wait until our's arrives

    I'm happy now - I've done my bit and got the information SWMBO needs. Now I can leave the difficult bit (the decision) to my her

    Thanks again all. This is a great, very informative forum.
    PJVDL,

    The 3.0 SE/2.7 will only have an Almond Door card with meteor insert as std. No option of upgrading the inserts.
    The HSE will have Almond with Arabica door tops with meteor insert as std. As stated, free of charge option of Straight Grained Walnut or Piano black insert.
    Arabica is std on the dash top if you order the Almond interior.
    Nutmeg is ONLY the carpet, not that one can tell the difference if at all

    I hope this clears up some of the confusion.

    I personally love the Straight Grained Walnut interior on the HSE & if it is a free upgrade go with it. It makes the vehicle look a little more up market.

    Congrats & Good luck.

    Thanks all. After looking at the photos and following your collective advice, we have decided to go with the Walnut inserts.

    PS Graeme, you can find roamer's photos by clicking on his tag name to navigate to his gallery.

    Ah, thanks pjvdl and Roamer.

    I'm in 2 minds about the upper door trim - I think all Almond looks a bit bland, the darker colour would hide the dirt a bit better but would get hotter in the sun.

    I'm starting to really look forward to getting my bronze with almond SE early January.

    Roamer,
    I stand corrected.. & astonished..

    That is the first vehicle i have seen in an HSE form that has Almond door card tops!

    We see many HSE's come throught the workshop & to date i have not seen one like that! They have all had Arabica door tops! Hmmmm.

    I only just saw the photo this morning & was bemused!

    I dont know what to say

    I have just re-read the ordering gide & brochure to find that it states:

    "Brochure"
    Seat Color. Almond
    Carpet. Nutmeg
    Fascia Top. Arabica
    Door Upper Trim. Almond*
    Door inserts. Almond
    * = For Leather & Premium leather seats the door trim will be Arabica.

    Further to this from the "Dealer Order Guide" only on the HSE spec!

    The Australian LR website shows the Arabica door tops for both standard and premium leather and because it also shows the Almond door tops for cloth seats, it cannot be showing just the HSE, which isn't stated anyway. Maybe its just false advertising on the website!
