First Defender Heritage 90HT deliveries?

[dickyf]

My pal got his at the weekend. Looks fantastic in the flesh. Not got a date for my delivery yet. Curiously, has anyone seen any for sale yet??

[mdobby]

Great, please send some pictures. What extras are you going for? Towbar, Waxyoil, radio?

Was one on piston heads a couple of weeks ago. But it said POA. Its not on anymore

[dickyf]

no extra spec.

I may be being overly invasive here, but just curious about what is going on here? No number plates and seat plastic suggests it still hasn't left the dealership.. but then I doubt JLR deliver cars from the factory on flat bed trailers alongside Vauxhalls!?

Looks great though!

[dickyf]

Buyer simply asked the car to remain as it left the factory. Nothing else to report. Complete with chalk marks and stickers on the windscreen,reg plates were just not fitted.
That photo was taken on the lane where he lives, i cant comment how a dealer chooses to deliver their cars.

It looks stunning.

Mine being delivered on Thursday 26 - perfect as off shooting on Friday 27! Is anyone bothering with a radio at £700?

[forest172]

mine. Having radio fitted, however now wires, speakers or looms present. Don`t think it`s going to cost me £700 though. Waiting on price today

[dickyf]

so mo speakers near your knees?? how odd.

[AOK]

A couple 110's have popped up in the classifieds by private dealers asking hefty premiums. Shameful

[forest172]

just seen, one is private at £50k and one at ongar bridge for £41k. Crazy prices!!

Thanks very much, it's a NO to the £700 stereo then, and off to a car HiFi dealer!

[ZOLLAR]

Saw these today, are they heritage ones? (Look similar)

[AOK]

So that confirms it... after months of debate / uncertainty... Domestic HT's do not get the Alpine Windows.

This is contrary to the press car which made an appearance all over the place, including this Autocar write up http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-review/land-rover/def...

Strange.... Would have been a lovely detail. I would have happily paid if I was given the option!

[forest172]

Got it today. In a word brilliant!!!

Ongar bridge sold in a day. £9k over list and the private one at £50k went in a day. But that could be pie in the sky

I know its the last thing you want to do after spending X amount on a brand new car but if you were to decide that the alpine windows are important to you then it would be possible to source another roof with apline windows as they are a very simple, if very fiddly, job to swap
