Looks like a nice spec.

Does "Holding Pool" mean the order has not been submitted - or waiting for an allocation?

My build sheet indicates "Confirmed"

It’s waiting for an allocation, hasn’t been confirmed. But the order itself is submitted by the dealer, just waiting to be picked up essentially.

Hahaha, yeah the pack includes the off-road tires which I had on my 90 and do not like at all. If it was a standalone option, I probs would. Granted I could just switch out the tires but nahhhh.

Edit: Would also mean I wouldn’t get the 22’s either. Sadly the Gloss Black 20’s I like aren’t available on the SE, just the S (which means no P400 and some other options I want) and while I like the 19’s, I already had them (with the off road tires) and don’t want them again. Could get the cool stock dark satin 20’s, but it’s only on the X-Dynamic and means no White Contrast Roof which is a must.

I see you ordered the 7 seater. Can you order a 130 with 5 seats? I don't need more seating space, just more cargo room for the dog, ski gear, luggage and the dreaded college move-in.

It’s actually the 8 seater, can either do a 5 seater or 8 on the 130. So yeah you can do 5 seats, when building and ordering, make sure you do “Standard Seating Configuration” which means 5 seats. From there you can add the Premium Upgrade Interior Pack if ya want more Fanciness on top of something like the Windsor Leather Seat Option.

Also a note, The Build and Price is actually incorrect (as far as I know) in saying you can only add the Extended Leather on the 8 seat config with the Windsor Leather; you can indeed add the Premium Upgrade Interior Pack on top of the Windsor Leather Pack because it includes the Extended Leather Upgrade (even though it says it doesn’t). If you get the 5 seat config, it automatically selects the Premium Upgrade Interior Pack if you have the Windsor Leather option (which again includes the Extended Leather Upgrade), even if the Build and Price doesn’t show that.

When in doubt, check the Dealer Build Sheet when you order it, not just the website’s Build and Price summary.

I really like the idea of having more cargo area, because I might add the full height partition for my dogs and cargo, but at the same time it will still fit with 8 seats supposedly, might have to do the half height; but having 8 seats is just cool on a defender, even if I’ll never use them. I still have to time to change it being that an allocation hasn’t even been picked up even though I’m first in line at my dealer.

I live in the Snow Belt and they just don't work well in the snow. I really just do not like Goodyear's, specifically the Wrangler's (not just on the Defender). These are available to be 3 Peak Mountain Rated but LR decided against that version for these Wrangler's for some reason, and it shows. I don't off-road at all and I just need something good in snow and rain primarily (occasionally gravel/grass), and the standard street Continental's and Pirelli's would be just as good imo.
