    I don’t think there are any major changes till 2011, when a new model is released.

    No sign of the rumoured 5.0 v8 yet either?

    What's different about the seats (just out of perverse interest)
    It's not broken. It's "Carbon Neutral".

    The seats are smaller in the 2008 than they are in 2003, for that matter, the interior in general is smaller in the 2008.

    What’s the difference in the seats between the 2008 and the 2009?

    Looks like they have a wider shoulder bolster going by the pics.

    Could be wrong through since the comfort seats in our 03 look totally different anyway.

    People are getting fatter - especially those corpulent Range Rover pwners apparently....

    Those seats are slightly different to my 08 but they are no wider. The centre consul is the same and this is much wider than the centre consul in the 03.

    My 03 had wider seats and were more comfortable but the seats in the 08 are much better for distance travelling.

    By the way, everything else the cab looks the same.

    We may be fatter but, thanks to the RR's air conditioned seats, we are a lot cooler

    As for comfort, on my holidays I have been ripping around places in my beloved Fender, hot, poor aircon and squeezy cabin to give it a well deserved run.........Wife asked me to rip down the shops yesterday (35 deg heat) so I jumped into the "Proper Range Rover" (Top Gear).. I couldn't believe the difference, I got in and the aircon auto maxed to the desired 23 deg in no time at all, the ride to the shops was just way to short so I detoured to some shops further away (Fremantle 40kms)
    Its the only car I have ever owned of which I get disappointed when the trip concludes.
