Just spoke to my salesman with an order update so I thought I'd start a thread for my own vehicle
On 30th December I signed up to order a 110 S D200 MHEV Tweaked it on the 5th Jan (confirmed today) Spec is now as follows Pangea Green Black roof Standard Sparkle 6010 19" Rims Premium LED lights Acorn interior Explorer Pack (LR Rack, Raised Air Intake, Side Gear Carrier, Classic Mud Flaps, Bonnet Decal) Side Roof Ladder Delivery has now been quoted to me as 20th March 2021. I was told that the Factory Build Freeze date is 2nd February (in case I change again - the possibility of that is probably at 50:50 right now) So basically the same as this  Click image to enlarge With these wheels
I'm sticking to all season tyres because I reason that later on I'll pick up a set of cheap 18's (steel or otherwise) and they'll get the off-road tyres (I'll have to manage this in and amongst discretionary spend to avoid ticking off the Domestic CFO any further...  )
My countdown clock as of today says I'm on Day 12 of 80 - so 68 days to go!  Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history) Last edited by SN on 30th Jan 2021 12:31am. Edited 2 times in total |

Its ordered through Sytner (Guy Salmon) - I would imagine they get lots of slots allocated to them as a big chain, so that could indeed be the case - he did originally quote me 31st March Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history) |

Sounds like they’ve given you a slot they already had in the system so that’s good news 👍. My 90 was ordered on the 7th December (originally ordered in sept with another dealer but we won’t go there...) and I’ve got an early April delivery date. Exciting times ahead!!! Lovely spec you’ve chosen look forward to seeing some pictures once it arrives.

The front fog lights are great at night on dark country roads and in multi-storey car parks as they double up as the cornering spot lights that used to come with the adaptive headlights on RRS’s and D3’s. I didn’t know I had them on mine until I saw the car on a video on a very wet day with the headlights on and thought one of the lamps had blown already...... Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed! |

Strewth Steve, fine choice, but I would say that! 15years later and we are buying the same car a month apart again😂 Captain Nick Medhurst would ask:
