Uh! Didn’t know it was that bad. I would definitely wait if there is a risk of LR cutting both my interactive display AND premium headlights from an SE trim.

I wouldn’t take delivery with the ‘hybrid’ half-digital/half-analog gauges. Love my current setup, and when I first saw the analog gauges posted here, I thought they looked like something from the parts bin that JLR threw together to keep production lines going. Disappointing at best, for a top dollar vehicle.

Did the dealer tell you it was being built with analog gauges or did it tell you on the order form? I received an order form for a 110 X-dynamic a few months back with a build date of 2/17 and a an acceptance date of 3/31. Since receiving that form, my dealer has told me several different acceptance dates. First it was 3/31, then 3/3, then 3/17 and now 3/10. I wish there were a way to actually track the order yourself without going through a dealer who really doesn't care to help very much. I still don't know if it is built already, if its being built on the date that's on the order form, or some other date. This whole ordering process has been frustrating since the beginning.

Just a guess, but if the build date is the 17th, and today is the 16th, I would say it is not built yet?!?
As far as the dash is concerned...This is my wifes DD. She is coming out of a '19 JLU...I hardly think the LED screen would be a deal breaker....

Just curious...Would anyone forgo the LED dash screen for an upgrade to the 11.4" center screen?

I have the analog gauges and I think they work fine, but then I have a lower spec P300 110S, so I suppose my expectations are lower. Compared to the instrument panel on the new Bronco that I had on order the Defender's instrument cluster is great. My only complaint is the size of the fuel and temp gauges as they are quite small compared to the LED version.

I just ordered a 110S with a May 12 build date. My order has both the IID and the Premium LEDs. I could probably deal with analogue gauge cluster, but I don't think I'll take my order if I don't get the signature DRLs. They are too integral to the look of the truck.

No way Jose...I actually think the smaller screen fits better the layout. IMO the bigger one looks like an afterthought tablet slapped to the dash.

Hey, that's fine. To each their own. That's the beauty of humanity. Different opinions make all of us evolve. Enjoy the new ride!
