No bad surprises with "decontenting" - the only thing I couldn't order when it came time to lock it down was the nicer seats. Mine are leather, but not the nice leather. But that's OK - saved me some money.

When I ordered it, the spec was the original smaller screen; soon after I ordered it, I was told all 2023 models would have the larger screen. And then it went back to the smaller screen, which is what was delivered today. Again, that's OK.

It did include the "clear sight" rear mirror, the cold weather pack, the off road pack - all things that I thought would be vulnerable to chip shortages.

So I'm happy in the end.

Best of luck to all of you as you wait for yours.

Looking sharp! Do you have the TFT display or the full digital cluster?

Defender 130 walk around (sorta) that looks to have just arrived at a dealer in Sacramento. I love that tan interior.

Yep I posted it on my 130 thread (posted below). US is just now receiving the Launch stock unit’s of the 130’s. They will all be identical First Editions w/ Carpathian Grey Exteriors and Vintage Tan Interiors. Not my fav spec but same interior as my 130 order. Each dealer should be getting 1.

As far as the Sedona Red one, that’s a Canadian dealer. Might even be someone’s order. I ordered mine July 1st and scheduled to receive it December 16th, last amendable date was yesterday and build date is October 28th.

It’ll be 10 months minus 2 weeks from when I put my order in to the dealer.
Mine was delayed to 10/28 from 10/14 as well (originally 9/9). The dealer said its because of a worker strike going on at the port, so there is delays getting the cars loaded and unloaded. Doesn't make total sense to me since I have seen many other cars on here being delivered with build dates after mine. I have been renting a car for 3 months now that's getting really expensive! Hopefully this is the last of the delays and they will be here soon.

Is anyone experiencing similar delays? Mine was built 7/19 and has been sitting in the port since 8/25... Original delivery was 9/9 now being told (tentatively) 10/28 as it is still waiting for a ship. Dealer says the car is fully built and not missing any parts, but there just have not been any available ships to put it on. I'm located in Chicago area (Baltimore port).

Default Port worker strike and delays

My delivery got changed from 10/14 to 10/28. No reason given. But quick search shows England port workers announced strike next month and a port workers started strike last week. And re routing is not helping either looks like. News says the strike affects Land Rover parts shipped tp usa. But not sure if new car are (or will be) affected due to this. Any idea which port in England is used for shipping new car over atlantic?

As far as I know, defenders come from the Southampton port in England and Zeebrugge port in Belgium. Last time I checked Southampton port was not involved, but not sure what’s going on now

Yeah! Everywhere I searched it said Southampton is not affected. So its interesting that JLR distribution is telling my dealer this, you can track car carrier boats coming and going on time so not sure what exactly is going on...

I honestly don’t know which this is. I checked the monroney sticker and there is no line for the cluster.

But here is a picture.
