Hi Guys I am new to the forum and find it a great site for information.
I have just last week ordered the following spec, was told originally told June/July for delivery, however have had a build date given of 8th May.

3.0 SDV6 HSE
Fuji White
Ebony / Lunar interior - Grey Oak
22" Alloys
Red Brake Callipers
Panoramic Contrast roof Santorini
Heated Steering Wheel
Full Size Spare
5yr Service Pack
Front / Rear Mud flaps
Fixed Side Steps

Once it arrives it's off to body shop to be colour coded (as Dynamic) also under trays to be colour coded in body colour (May wrap too for extra protection ?) and bumper A frames front and rear to be painted in Gloss black. Copying a Demo AB local dealer had in!!
Replacing our 2011 HSE lux which is a fantastic car but now can't wait for this to arrive!!

What do the A frames look like? Any photo's of them fitted to a similar vehicle?

Jim I think the OP means the original natural plastic parts of the bumper?:

LR Defender 300Tdi - affectionately know as "The Black Beast"

Each to his own of course, but I think while tends to accentuate the car's bulk, makes it look like a bit of a lumbering tank. Mark

Cheers Guy,
Those are what I call the A frames (not sure that's the technical term!!) We really like the look of the car and the wife will drive it like its a tank so should fit right in !!

Hi Dazzler,

Congratulations on your new order, bet you're excited!

When you say that you just placed your order, do you mean that you've just put your deposit down last week or that the order has gone through to Landrover last week? I'm just trying to get an idea of lead times, as I'm interested in ordering soon too!

Regards,

Ranger4

Hi Ranger4, paid deposit just over 2 weeks ago Sunday, got build date the following Thursday for May 8th!!!

Not sure Beancounter, was initially told June/July, once ordered was given a build date of 8th May. Will run past my dealer tomorrow what current orders are running at and post accordingly.

That's a super fast delivery date!
I've hinted to the dealer about ordering a second RRS and he gave me an October build date.
Maybe I should switch dealers? Current...
