First Land Rover!
Gorgeous spec, welcome aboard! I came from Audis too (S4 then SQ5, my V8 RS5 still in the garage). I assume the XSE trim has the 6-cylinder engine? You may want to look into getting a GAP IID tool to enable Dynamic mode. It really wakes up the engine responsiveness. May feel more like your SQ7 off the line.
I programmed my Audis with OBD-11 which is basically the same thing as GAP IID. I actually started an OBD-11 thread in 2018 for Q8 on Audiworld. The thread is still active at 1100 posts but Audi put SFD2 security in and locked out the OBD-11 tool. People are having issues trying to program their cars now. That really sucks it's so cool being able to make adjustments at home. I don't have good range on my wifi at home, do you happen to know if GAP works ok with just like 5G?

Congrats and welcome to the club! The overall build quality and reliability will not be as good as the Audi, but there is literally no car on the market that has the combination of styling, on road ride drivability and off road capability as the Defender. And the reliability/quality issues are overblown IMHO. I am 22K miles in. Mechanically perfect. Only issue was a warranty replacement of the main nav system/ (Not the screen but the unit under one of the seats.) I suspect this ws just a software thing they couldn't figure out.
I love the truck. Enjoy.
