Wow the hits keep coming. So do the dealers just go quiet when problems arise or do they just not pay attention? Your expecting your defender in two weeks and this is something they have to known about for at least three weeks no?

Here are some more pictures. I’m getting it tinted tmw, so I’ll have more pictures to upload sometime this week. I’m really digging it so far. The tech is great. It looks amazing. The car is huge too. I’m like 6’ 1” 250+, I feel tiny for the first time in my life driving it around.

Don't expect double-digit fuel consumption as you will be addicted to the sound of that engine.

Agreed, why did they not tell me until I reached out 2 weeks before delivery. Also, mine was built on 6/10....why wasn't it transported to Southampton before the mid-July floods? Does each dealer have a different ranking and do some get preferential treatment? There are plenty of people who have received their Defenders built around the same day as mine.

Agreed. I thought the flooding occurred around mid July so that seems odd it would take a month before it even started transport to England....but who really knows....pretty sure the earth is trying to kill off humans for how destructive we have been....via one way or another.

If I have a request of people when you are quoting someone please delete the photos they included....there is zero point to repost someone else's photos so they overlap in the thread over and over...these last two quote posts just added 40 extra photo doubles...
