I see your logic and I do have a slight concern about the next all-new version. My overall strategy is to buy now, and keep options open for the L460 launch which will probably coincide with my PCP plan finishing. Hopefully there will be electric and (more meaningful/useable) hybrid variants, and that car may be a keeper as I slide into pipe and slipper mentality!

you lucky man but im sure you've earnt it, beautiful car in perfect colour  LANDROVER HISTORY 2000 DISCOVERY 2 E. 2003 DISCOVERY 2 ES. 2005 DISCOVERY 3 HSE, 2009 RANGEROVER WESTMINSTER

Woohoo! The car is built! Should have it in about 2 weeks, so only a week later than originally intended!

Sod Christmas, this is the date I've been waiting for!!!

Nice one. Merry Christmas.

Great news Nubbin,

Time will flyby now and before you know it you’ll be driving your beauty

Lyonhead - been looking at your recent acquisition - stunning!

2 days to go! Picking it up on Friday!

Ooooooooooh, excited!!!

One more sleep!

Well, it's here! It is absolutely fabtastic, so far the driving experience has been everything I hoped it would be, although I spent most of today moving stuff around in the garage to allow the new beast to squeeze in. 5.2 metres of full fat does go into 5 metres of garage if you know how to manipulate time and space!

The navy leather is really nice, very modern looking, the 22" wheels look gorgeous and really suit the size of the car.

Had a slight hiccough this afternoon when we stopped to unload shopping, and the car wouldn't start again! Left it for 5 minutes and it's back online. Hopefully just a bit of an electrical gremlin.

Hopefully get some decent photos tomorrow and when I do I'll post some up, this is one at the dealer yesterday.

Well done Nubbin,

Your car looks brilliant

Hi Nubbin,

You have the perfect colour and wheel combo! Congrats

Get this recorded with stealer asap

If in the event you have further issues down the line it would support you in case its a lemon (I have had a couple)

I am sure its nothing but its better to have it as insurance when dealing with the finance company/stealer IMO

Lovely lovely lovely

Went out for a little drive this morning, GOT A F***IN' PUNCTURE! Right on the shoulder of the rear wheel, new tyre required!!

The manual says (I'm paraphrasing here) - "do not jack up the car with the deployable side steps deployed". The very next paragraph says, "Deployable steps must be deployed to allow access to the jacking point". Now I may be a bit thick, but those two statements seem somewhat contradictory. I laughed so much! (I didn't).

Anyway LandRover recovery popped in and simply jacked the car up on the deployable step hinge. It's Sunday, so I have to wait until tomorrow to see what price my dealer can give me on a new tyre, meanwhile I tried Tyres On The Drive.com, and their website would not allow me to order a tyre, so they can go make babies with themselves.
