Range Rover L460 Waiting Room
#11
Not my car, but mine is a SWB V8 in the same color but with the black pack/wheels.
This was a LWB V6 waiting to be picked up at the dealership earlier today.
First time I saw the color in person and it is beautiful, can't wait to get mine which is getting unloaded in Brunswick VPC as we speak and should be here by the end of the week.

No issues, no regrets.
Bast way I can describe it is that it drives like a Rolls. Incredibly comfy, super quiet, great dynamics, AWS makes a huge difference, lovely interior ... overall a huge step up from the previous gen in regards to the driving experience.
I've actually already put in an order request for the PHEV version. I think that's going to be the powertrain sweet spot for this vehicle but it wasn't available when my allocation for this one came up. It is already so refined and quiet and I love the idea of never using fuel on my daily chores whilst having an ICE engine for road trip convenience. It's not a vehicle meant for high performance anyway so I don't mind giving up a little 0-60 to have what I perceive as the best overall version of it. And it will be nice to have something this big be a little more eco friendly without the downsides of full EV.

100% agree on the engine. That’s the one I am ordering as well. The P440e. Bummed that they are not offering the Sunset Gold paint right now. I am also bummed that I can’t get that engine in the Autobiography trim.
I just took delivery of the new Defender. I suspect the air suspension will be a nice upgrade. Also, the hybrid should remove the annoying auto start stop thing that makes the Defender so twitchy.

Ordered back in April - still waiting on an allocation (about 6 ahead of me in line). Long Wheelbase, 7 seater, British Racing Green on the Ebony Semi-Aniline leather, black birch veneer, black headliner, 3D Surround, Pixel LEDs, Tech pack, Tailgate Su9ite, 24 way messaging seats, Deployable Side Steps. All for the wife who is waiting patiently. They told me 12-15 months in April for the 7 seater but just want to see movement. SE version 3.0 liter i6 MHEV.

My new gal
I’m almost 4500 miles in. Somewhat basic model, V6 instead of my preferred and usual V8, but I’m happy as a pig in slop.
Soft, cushy ride. Decent power. Miss the V8 roar but she is plenty strong and fast for my needs. Even better-than-before turning radius, thanks to the rear tires. I’ve already launched and recovered a boat, which was a little tricky with this new feature.
My third LR in the white/caraway interior. Some friends and colleagues not familiar with the brand haven’t noticed that I have a new vehicle, as such.
She is a thirsty girl in town. Highway is better. Back up at the dealership right now for some 3M on her bow. That has me driving a Jaguar E Pace loaner. Which is making me lonely for my new ride.
