Why do you suppose they never made a LHD Sportbrake - probably coz they believed there would be no market for it in North America or Europe.
They never even sold the Sportbrake in Oz which historically was a strong market for station wagons (mainly Holden & Ford) before the SUV craze killed that market niche.
Then, to top off the crazy JLR marketing decisions there was never an XFR Sportbrake, if you wanted a V8 Sportbrake it was the full-fat XFR-S or nuffin!

If you're going to do something that few will buy, make them pay dearly for the privilege.

They did make a LHD Sportbrake, it was sold in Europe. You could even get LHD XFR-S Sportbrakes.

Had the entire roof and speed spoiler wrapped in gloss black on my xfr-s today. Personally i feel like it should have looked like this from factory.

Totally agree, I love having the roof and spoiler wrapped black. I also have all the badges done in black too. Nothing irritates me more than chrome that gets water spots etched into it.

Use a proper chrome cleaner. Water spots never get etched into chrome, you're just not using the right products. Nothing can clean chrome but chrome cleaner.
