Could you fold down the rear seats and take a couple of pictures.
So envious, will chase my dealer in a week. letters not necessarily in the right order

The grilles are a plastic material.

The colour i’d say is incredibly difficult to photograph and do justice to. It’s undeniably green as opposed to grey in the flesh, quite a flat colour, nothing remotely metallic or light responsive.

My personal opinion, it’s beautiful. I was at Balmoral this morning and it certainly turns heads!

Congratulations christonabike

My current spec actually includes those wheels and Belgravia Green and I think they're a good choice. Plus they will provide a smoother ride than the 23's and you're less likely to kerb your alloys as quickly.

I personally think that the silver colour of the wheels, combined with that of the lighter silver coloured Autobiography visual pack, are the best way to show off this green colour, (although I have to agree with others that the car does look slightly grey in the showroom). Add too many dark accents and dark coloured wheels, and Belgravia Green will pick up these tones, and will start to look really dull.

Any chance you can get us some exterior paint photos showing the car outside on this sunny day?

Be interesting to see if my silver / green theory is correct or not?

Congratulations once again

Has anyone got confirmation about when they're expecting their 7 seater version? So far, it seems only short wheel base cars are being produced. Might be wrong but just curious.

Will do - Thanks

On the Pre-Prod HSE that I saw at the dealers, part of the boot floor popped up and you could move clips around to stop a bag of shopping/bottle moving around in the boot. Thought it was standard across all cars.

Your car looks amazing, really do like Belgravia Green, all of the previous pictures I've seen of it, it looks very similar to Ardennes Green.

Congratulations - it looks fantastic

The car we had on test last week was specced with the same wheels which made the car look pretty muscular compared to the standard AB wheels that were fitted to the other vehicle in the dealer. I agree it’s the most ‘classic’ of the designs on offer - certainly more ‘country lanes’ than ‘county lines’ when compared to the ‘23s!

Just in case it’s not been mentioned. JLR declared last week they had sorted out their chip supply. Filters are in fact so good that in certain circumstances, when the ambient air is already polluted, a diesel car will tend to extract more particles from the air than it emits. Emissions Analytics worked with........etc etc

He who dies with the most toys wins...

It'll be wiring looms next!!

Apparently Porsche have already closed their factory and stopped production because of the shortage, as these come from the Ukraine!!

Mines been delayed and I believe most have been

I did warn of the wiring loom issue......

However, that said, I think this old "Ukraine war" chestnut is being used quite a lot at the moment - Who knows what to believe.

I was told the other day, that one of our companies suppliers was struggling to get a certain raw material, as this was manufactured in Belgium and they relied on gas from Russia....... Really!!!!
