Hi Folks

My new TDV8 is being delivered on Saturday, and I am not allowed to drive it until Monday

Thing is, I have to collect a client from Heathrow (unsure which terminal) that day, will it go in the short term car park OK?

Any help appreciated

John

yes will be fine...am in there lots (parking that is!)

Just remember to lock in access mode (hold the lower button down until you hear the gong, on leaving the carpark don't forget to raise the car when clear of the exit barrier otherwise you will get lots more gongs!) before you get to the entry barrier to make sure 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Height is OK, just beware of the alloys on some of the ramps - T1 and T3 car parks have some fairly tight turns with high concrete kerbs.

Thanks for your replies and advice. I will have only driven 35 miles or so prior to collecting my client so I will hardly be familiar with the footprint of the car. I think I will ask him to come outside and meet him in the set down/collect area to be safe. Imagine how gutted I would be kerbing a wheel on the first day of ownership!!

It's on the special Land Rover 20's that have built in kerb magnets, you WILL get them scuffed, most people do! I'm running on 19's over the winter and so far the car hasn't been attracted to a single granite kerb, the wheels are still pristine after 2 winters use whereas I have had to have my 20's refurbed twice! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

...and find the furthest away solitary space 6ORK. Guaranteed you'll come back in 30 minutes and there will be a VW camper parked either side.
Enjoy the car - post up your thoughts after short ownwership.

I am looking to place order v soon for new SC, although - I love the sound of the TDV8 (from the outside) - haven't driven one yet.

Plenty of RRS/ FFRR always parked on the top floor of T3 car park

It's amazing really how many very nice cars that do get left in the short stay car parks for extended periods of time. I suppose these people don't get where they are by paying for their own parking
