Update for those of us anxiously watching and waiting.... There's apparently quite a few of us in the "5/14" build day club. It looks like those vehicles have made it to Southampton port and are either being loaded today or waiting on the next ship or two this week. My tracking sheet has updated to show an arrival at the dealer (here in the mid-south US) one week earlier than originally stated. So things seem to be moving along.
I noticed the status has updated to "Into Port of Exit or Local Compound". In other's experience, will this same line change and update with something like "On X-named ship" once its loaded and on the way?
This is even more helpful if they'll share it with you. As soon as the vehicle is loaded on a boat, the sailing dates and vessel name will be updated under Logistics...
Things seem all jumbled up - the 2022 Range Rover is now on the LRUSA site, so I guess all the hype and spy photos of the next gen 2022 RR has been pushed to MY2023 now. With the chip shortage and supply chain issues, including cargo capacity, everyone is scambling to find solid footing. Personally I would be nervous to have an order in the books right now as I can see LR missing one part of a package or accessory and just pushing the vehicle out the door anyway knowing if the buyer does not want it, someone else will.
LR has this snippet at the end of their RR brochure:
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Some features on the images may vary between optional and standard for different
model years and due to the impact of Covid-19, many of our images have not been updated to reflect 22MY
specifications. Please refer to the car configurator and additionally consult your local Retailer for detailed
22MY specifications and do not base an order on website imagery alone. Jaguar Land Rover Limited is
constantly seeking ways to improve the specification, design and production of its vehicles, parts and
accessories and alterations take place continually, and we reserve the right to change without notice.
When the my22 defenders were released and my order was getting converted from a my21 to my22 I was interested in moving to the new XS special edition model. The ordering guide was not totally clear on what was included and my dealer told me that once the online configurator came out it would be clear exactly what comprised in the XS build.
Well when the online configurator came out its showed the rear lights having the smoked style like the X and V8 have. I inquired twice with my dealer to confirm that was the case and they did not answer. Now when you view the online configurator it shows the non smoke style in most of the pictures, although a couple angles still show the smoked version.
IMO its false advertising. I told my sales rep that I part of the increase from the my21 to my22 build variance was offset by getting the smoked rear lights, that would cost $1k+ to swap out on my own.
My dealer swapped my my21 order over to a my22 order and added the clearsight mirror and the air suspension. I had inquired right away as to what changes were occurring between my21 and my22 and was told "not much." It took my sales rep a couple weeks to send me the new build order that had 3k bump in price due to the model year change. I had to create a new order as I went from an HSE to an XS and that has now delayed my total time another month to month and a half. Still waiting to find out as we were just told a couple weeks ago it was three weeks behind schedule. I am now sitting at almost 4 months since I gave them a 5k deposit with 2 to 2.5 months to go.
FWIW the color you selected was my top choice (carp grey with white roof). Also you are second person who got fully grained leather seats. They are not advertised to be that for the SE model. Share some photos when you get a chance!
Here are some pics of my my2022 110 SE Shows off the contrast between the carpathian grey and black nicely... Pollen alert... Surprise: All grained leather, no canvas fabric detail Rear seats

Nice color scheme, I have the same colors ordered on my 2022 90 except with white steelies and khaki seats.
