That question is answered in my spreadsheet Smile I PM'ed you a D/L link for it.

So at the 110 S spec you can have the 3.0 D200 or D250 - the Petrol P300 is only 2.0 - theres approx £3K premium on D250/P300 over the D200

The premium on the S (over the base) is approx £4K

Wheels (i.e. going beyond 18" steelies to 19" alloys) seem to make up £1600 of that
The other £2400 is made up from Auto High Beam Assist, Centre Console, Leather Gearshift, 4 more ways to move front seats (12 vs Cool, Leather/Textile Seats, Interactive Driver Display (this last one was a deal breaker on the base model for me) Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

There’s a physical car just 26 miles away that would fit my discerning requirements quite nicely. And I’m sure they’d delver. Though not brave enough to bring up the subject with SWMBO. And before anyone asks, she does. Big Cry Big Cry Big Cry

Saw that one but it’s gone from Auto Trader.

PS Just found it on the website but it’s a 2.0, not the 3.0 I was thinking about. All gets too complicated. Embarassed

I've got it in a spreadsheet if you want it - this is why I've just ordered an S up-specced to 'higher spec lights/wheels' rather than taking all of the SE bits...

And... currently scratching head over body/roof/wheel colours again after SWMBO has 'released' some additional funds... Rolling Eyes


Interesting!! I asked the dealer if he had a spreadsheet of specs earlier this week as I found that easier for comparison when ordering my D5. He said they don't do the spreadsheets anymore.

Is this a 2021MY spreadsheet?

Yes - I bl**dy trawled the Build configurator at each of the Base, S and SE spec's - didn't finish HSE and X (out of my price range) Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

The configurator is a clever piece of work isn't it at encouraging you to spend just a little more. I don't want all the options that come with the SE but it's the only option with the D300 engine.

I purposely didn't go for the SE because it had adaptive cruise. I have it on my VW and it drives me insane. The S had everything I'd need and several things I want, but nothing I would never use.

I think the S with premium LED headlamps makes a lot of sense. I prefer the smaller alloys on a Defender and they (like a lot of options) are expensive on their own for the purpose of justifying the additional cost of the SE/HSE. Shame you can't have a D300 S...

Problem with the S, in D250 guise, is once you tick a few boxes (winter pack, lights, priv glass, metallic, black roof etc) you start to get not too far from FE money.

Whilst that is true, choosing an S allowed me to spend the extra on things I actually wanted (signature headlights, Meridian stereo, privacy glass).

And the 18" steel wheels were a deal breaker for me. They look so good. A utilitarian vehicle with low profile alloy wheels doesn't work for me.
