    Range Rover Sport people

    In preparation for shipping my RRS to Aus, I'm trying to determine what modifications will be needed for it to pass the compliance tests. One thing that keeps coming up on all the searches I've been doing is the need for 'child restraints' to be fitted in the rear, I've no idea what these are / look like so I can't check to see if it already has them.

    Could one of you RRS chaps take a photo of them for me or describe what they look like so I can go check ?

    Looking incresingly likely we'll be upping sticks to Melbourne later this year, so I'm in full on preparation mode with the car, the list of jobs is growing by the day

    Cheers
    Mike

    It should already have the metal ring things in the centre of the back of each of the rear seats (ie behind the seat backs). this is all that's needed for fitment of Aust Approved child restraints. Straps on approved child seats go over the seat back and hook onto these rings.

    Gawd! We're not getting another Welsh rabbit are we?

    Luckily, you're going to Melbourne so shouldn't trouble Australia.

    Jamo's nailed it Mike. When you get here you may be interested in either the Land Rover Club of Victoria and/or the Range Rover Owner's Club of Victoria.

    If you haven't already worked it out by BW's post non-Melbourians are jealous of Melbournians.

    Cheshire! Isn't that where they make the worst cheese in the world?

    You'll be fine in Melbourne because they're used to being outcasts.

    Don't travel too far because the rest of Oz is used to speaking proper.

    Take Care,
    Peter

    Cheshire cheese is just fine, at least it's not as bad as that vegemite ****e you lot scoff by the bucketload

    I moved away from cheshire about 15 years ago, family are all still there though. My RRS stands out a bit too much there now, it's full of premiership footballers in Overfinch'd ones these days, half of Man Utd lives within 10 minutes of our parents, blummin Wayne Rooney's always taking delivery of yet another Overfinch car

    Anyway, looking forward to sorting everything out and getting there, will join these clubs when we're there and hopefully meet a few of you
