21MY 110 S Expedition D200 MHEV (UK)

So this will be the thread for my New Defender having finally received from the dealership this afternoon - very downbeat event in COVID lockdown times sadly but had a good chat to my salesmen about LR failings

Some photos to start with:

At hand over time:

^^^ The Bonnet Decal has not been applied - there was an issue and they didn't have time so I have been invited back to have it stuck on (was in the back of the car in a cardboard sleeve)

At home - I'm absolutely loving the acorn interior - for me looks so lush compared to black interiors

Someone else testing out the first mod - couldn't get her out of the car once she got settled on her seat cover!

Another exterior view - I won't bore you any further

Really nice. I bet your chuffed with the interior. I’m a bit peeved I missed out on full leather with mine. However it’s over 3 months in and hasn’t picked up a mark yet.

Watch your back bumper, mine’s scratched now, even with the cover that is supposed to protect it. Dog claws are its greatest enemy! 2021 Defender 110 X-Dynamic HSE D300 MHEV

Also

Would you put up a few photos of the wheel trims as they meet the bumper on front and back and the side trim.

Mine stand a little proud - I guess its normal - but wanted to check it was not a dealer fitting error.

THANKS

@Simon_Audi

Just culled this lot from yesterday's photos - hopefully they're detailed enough for a comparison for you.

Thanks

Looks similar to mine where the arch is thicker at the edge than the adioning part.

Worse on the bumpers (on mine)

So I had a wander round the over lunch and there's no gaps anywhere on mine - can't see how they can ever be a perfect fit when they butt up to trim (bumper or door) since that trim needs to work with both wheelarch and no-wheelarch options Steve N | 21MY Defender

Soooooooooooo, what’s it like to drive?

Unless I’ve missed that bit by just looking at the pics.

Looks great

How are you finding the D200 in the 110? It’s pretty perky in the 90.

Quite fancy the bonnet graphic on mine. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

Yep its barely idling most of the time, nice noise too. I'm behaving myself at the moment for the first 1500 miles as advised in iGuide - but already
