Default Premium Cabin lighting option

So I just traded in my 18 for new 2021 full size disco. We got the premium cabin lighting package but I’m having some issues and the dealership has no idea nor do the techs. They also have no inventory to check other cars. Here is the problem:

- website says 10 color choices when you build it out and even shows a picture of the color choices.

- our car only has light blue, white, red & orange.

im wondering if this is a software issue or a marketing mistake on the website. Do any other owners have more than the above mentioned 4 colors with the premium cabin light package? My gut tells me it’s a marketing mistake but curios what others are seeing.

If it's like the defender it should have a color wheel with 10 color options

There has been some posts on facebook in the Discovery 5 owners group and it seems to be a common issue so not limited to you.

I am amazed that someone would spend $300 to choose the color of the lighting. If the vehicle came with the option already included and you wanted that vehicle, I can see where you might buy it. But to add it as an option on a build sheet, that seems crazy to me. Just me. I realize other people have other desires. If people weren't buying it I guess they wouldn't offer it.

Came with the build already at the stealership (literally the only disco on the lot). I’m amazed that I spent this much money on a car that has a ridiculous amount of issues like leaking windshields, head unit going black, squeaky brakes at 200 miles… lol ! Although it is my wife’s car so…

I know you shouldn't have to put up with all those issues but my leaking windshield (only one drop observed) was replaced over a year ago and does not leak and I've only had an instance or two where the screen didn't boot and I restarted successfully (2017, not the new PIVI), no sqeaky brakes (and now no brake dust with Porterfield pads).
