Says it has 16s... Doesn't show 16s...
Fail. De-spec'ed VR.
Someone is going to be very angry one day.
Edit: And I swear the antenna is missing in the first pic but not the third. Lol.

mmm.it has a VR badge at the rear but not the alloy wheels.
I suspect some one has stolen the rear badge and the wrong one fitted.

It has leather steering wheel, climate as well so there is no way it is an ES...

Yes you are right. Definitely a VR with ES wheels.
Maybe the wheels were changed for a promotional offer and then removed with the wrong ones fitted.

Hehe... I've heard stories about *a* dealership (not the one here) selling Outlanders (base model Activ Packs) with de-speced wheels (steelies) instead of alloys. In the ads the cars would have steelies instead of the alloys!

Righto, got the low down from my friend at that dealership.
There was a stuff up with an order and they had to swap wheels in a hurry. The car has the proper VR alloys on it now, so all is good.

I have learnt not to 100% trust a dealer ad.
My RA was advertised as having 300km's demo. It actually had closer to 5000...just a slight "typo"
good to hear this one is an honest issue, rather than an actual rort
