Wow he’s just said he’s been told that all defender models are cancelled!

I’m trying to get more information now from him but it doesn’t sound good and he’s been actively sharing information on the fb group about his order for a few months so I don’t think this is a hoax.

Here’s the thread I started about this with a screen shot of his posts
https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic76805.html Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!

Or just a possibility that the particular dealer has screwed up his allocation and is having to "cancel" certain orders?

Just seen in the Facebook group that someone got a phone call from Land Rover to inform them their P400e order has been cancelled! It was supposed to be built 12th February with delivery a month later. No new date given and no explanation as to why it has been cancelled.

Yep. I had the same yesterday. Cheers, David

Have you also ordered a PHEV?

(Why can't you quote the last post of a thread? Very annoying!)

Sorry, should’ve been clearer.

Yes, I had ordered p400e late last year, had a build date of 5th March but it has now been postponed for an as yet unknown amount of time. He said all the p400e’s they had on order had seen the same.

Dealer did say that there had been disruption to other PHEV build dates (evoque etc) too Cheers, David

Seems like it's the PHEV models have been sacrificed to keep the production of ICE models running smoothly.

Either that or they can't get batteries or something necessary for the PHEVs.

I'd have thought with the emissions fines hanging over their heads it would have been the other way around?

Probably no use in guessing but I will update if dealer gives any more details... Cheers, David

Yes, from the FT a few days ago...

"Jaguar Land Rover was also forced to pay penalties, despite a late push that saw its electric Jaguar I-Pace account for 69 per cent of the brand’s western European sales in December."

https://www.ft.com/content/e9a6aa4f-4a8b-4c80-a89b-13e8fbde2c43

My guess is that they held-back delivery of other cars to get to 69% (even if that was just Jaguar) in December
