Are newer LC's quieter than the earlier ones?

[BrettMRC]

I could be dreaming it, but I'm sure I've read that the more recent build LC's are quieter due to increased particulate filters?

Mine is a Feb '22 build and I swear it's quieter than the '17 plate car I test drove before I ordered - and half the ones I see on youtube?

I would imagine that is the case 😞

And 7bhp less too I believe 🙂

Very interesting observation, how did you find the 2017 in comparison in other ways, would you recommend a used 17?

I have the LS600, any idea how  the comfort would compare in the LC?

[BrettMRC]

The LC is very comfortable, it's not directly comparable to an LS or Range Rover in terms I'd ride because they are so different- but it's a relaxing cruiser and won't make you wince with every pot hole!

I don't think you would be disappointed with a 2017 model. 🙂

Now I have my Etsy valve controller installed things are a lot better! 😄

Hi.  Were you the  LS600h owner at the Harpenden Classics on the Common event?
