Order to production progress... trying to determine where I am in the process.
I submitted a deposit back last August with my desired build. Been inquiring for a while now with little info. Sales guy recently said I should be up for a build slot soon. Then a few days later was asked to confirm my build spec. Sent a few revisions. A few days after that I get the below order detail sheet which looks like it's from Land Rover.. has my order number, status and spec with a bunch of codes. For status it states "Order Confirmed". Does that really mean anything? Has my order been accepted from Land Rover? Do I have an allocation? Or am I just in the holding status until I get an allocation? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Last email I received a couple days ago from my Sales person stated: "It's gone onto Land Rover's system and will have an ETA very shortly."

I know nothing of course, but given that this is an X, I would expect it to be confirmed with a delivery date shortly. I say this because what I am hearing is that production is geared toward 'higher volume, higher margin' trims. I had a last amendment date of 1/19, the order locked, and the build date / delivery date remained the same. It is for a similar X build, just a 90. If I were you I would feel better once you get the build and delivery dates. Now, everything that I said is just based on who I have talked to and my own experience. I could be completely off..

Thanks for your personal insights. I know the Porsche custom order process quite well... all the stages/code and when you officially have a allocation and such. I'm sure there is something similar for Land Rover, but being new to the brand have not found it. Everything I have found so far is based on personal experience and assumptions.

The lines fill in like this, naturally not all worked out to this plan. The car is on the boat docking on the 25th. I suspect a few days to truck it to the dealer and glue on the other stuff. I feel lucky, everything I ordered was included, except for the activity key, which I got on ebay for $70.
