I have seen it in the flesh and was discussing with a colleague the fact that it looked more impressive than an 11 plate Jaguar XKR Convertible that was parked opposite!

There is just something very 'cool' about it, and the Wolf rims set it off brilliantly.

Hope to see you when it's handed over by Jeremy.

PS I didn't notice anything untoward with the wing (before I read this thread), and think Jeremy's iPhone is giving a fisheye effect. That said, it is not an uncommon sight and can be easily adjusted when it is quality checked at PDI.

LR only pay dealers to do very little and a spanner run under the vehicle will show some 20% of bolts to be under torqued.. if i had a £ for every new Defender i have tightened up i would be driving a Range Rover by now.... there is a list to do and they do it on a good day.. FACT, salesmen dont do PDI's. 2008 RS4 gone, 123d M Sport, and a Puma 90 XS..

Behave yourself Red Dot, stop Censored on 22900013A's parade. I'm sure James will ensure a proper PDi is done and rectify anything that needs doing (theres always something) Thumbs Up Original Member Pie n Pea Club.

I am 100% confident any issues will be rectified, I was very impressed with Park Royal from the moment I walked in, and although I have pestered the hell out of poor Jeremy they have always been great! 2011 110 USW

Red Dot..... You are incorrect in your assumption that Land Rover PAY the dealership to carry out PDI's.

At least you are now equipped with the correct information! Whistle

Dan, I'm in Suffolk this weekend so will not get to meet you today, however Jeremy and Matt will be there to assist.

If they don't get paid for it that may explain why some don't do it? 2008 RS4 gone, 123d M Sport, and a Puma 90 XS..

What evidence do you have that some dealers don't do a PDI? John
