Having seen the machine at Solihull on the 'tour', I am now having doubts about my Heritage 90 SW order... Rolling Eyes

I still kinda crave after a boggy basic Keswick Green 90 SW with a white roof and white steel wheels... about £5k cheaper! And it comes with a radio!

But surely it seems a bit barmy however to cancel an order when I know they all 'sold' out within 2 days of release? I do wonder how they will be seen by the greater market once they hit the streets!

Mmmm! YOLO... You Only Live Once...

YOLO,

As you may have seen on my earlier post, I am having similar thoughts on the Heritage 110 I have on order, and fancy a standard Keswick SW to mildy customise in a retro way instead. I have emailed a company who are offering to buy forward orders for the Celebration Series, to see what they are likely to offer.

By no means made my mind up, but worth exploring the options!

I'm going to take delivery no matter what as it is what it is.
There will be no more. And as happens In all things cars the AC grill with no AC will become a must have.
Stick with it guys. It's too early to speculate Thumbs Up

I'd buy what you want not what you think others might like at a later date. The latter may disappoint; but the former has no downside.

Some models may hold their value better than others, relatiely speaking, but has any new Defender or Series vehicle actually been sold for over list price due to demand?

Has ANYONE on here who has ordered any 'Celebration' edition, actually had any paperwork specific to that order please?

All I have is a receipt for my deposit and a form that says I have ordered a Heritage 90. Plus a few emails from the dealer saying and confirming that I have definitely secured a Heritage!

Given the Ozzies are seemingly getting more stuff than us in the UK on this, I am finding this 'deafening silence' from JLR about this order and model a bit odd... Shocked

Cheers,

Pete. YOLO... You Only Live Once...
