Charmed I am sure. Bring me an LR spec sheet with those items on and I shall bow to your better knowledge (if not intellect and general demeanour). Until then, you know nothing. If aircon is available then I shall buy one, since having two dogs and a house in the South of France, without same, a daily driver, as this would be, is a total no go. I am surprised at LR electing to manufacture such a base spec, mock heritage or otherwise.

Can anyone advise whether the Heritage 90 Hardtops will have the 'Alpine Windows' in the roof? Cheers

Listen to yourself. You sound like the kind of pompouse arse that most people (now matter how priviliged/benevolent) wouldn't give the steam off their pi$$ too. hehe

What a charming fellow you are. If you have a substantive point ( in this case about the spec of the Heritage), and therefore something to contribute, then please make it known provided you can spell of course. If not, then bye loser as you have no worth to me. (Note my lack of use of your unimaginative smilies)

For the hard of understanding such as yourself, if you can point to LR sales material quoting the Heritage as having both a/c and a radio as standard fit (which was your assertion), then I will be happy to doff my cap to you. So, if you are that confident, please do so. Easy for you?

Hi, I can confirm no A/C basically its MY 2015 base spec ( not sure if that includes radio ?) + electric windows, heated screen, Heated seats and remote central locking. Thats basically the electrical spec.

My local dealer told me on Friday that air-con is not available. Could be dud information but it seems to have been confirmed by several other people who have been told exactly the same.

Air con not an issue for me. Chuffed they have heated seats, elec windows, central locking and heated front screen. Sooner have all those over aircon. They come with radio prep as standard. So whack a head unit and speakers in and you're away

Does anyone know if the Heritages are sold out everywhere? My local dealer is dodging the question.

I`ve had a 90 SW heritage and dealer was only allocated one of those and a HT. He could have sold it 17 times on friday

However I went to Hunters Derby on Saturday and the salesman told me that I can order any of the series from them and they can get it. Hard to believe though

But all other dealers got an allocation on friday and was told what they was getting, then that was that. I`m thinking the derby dealer wasn`t quite in the know

Hi Forest, yes I have seen this image floating round the internet but I don't think it is of the actual Celebration series 'Heritage'... possibly an existing car or maybe a photoshop jobby?

If you look closely the rear lights are arranged differently to those shown on the Heritage 90 SW press shots. Reverse light on opposite side etc. Also it has a yellow number plate whereas the press cars don't.

What do you get when you order a standard Defender HT, not an XS? Do you get the alpine windows or not?

Cheers!

i hope the grille and anniversary badges on the heritage edition will be able to be ordered to retrofit to older defenders.

I bet they will though. Unlikely to be via LR though.
