Every option I ticked is there, it’s the two standard fit items that I opted to delete that they fitted

Must have got lost in translation.

You can tell the lights are the upgraded ones as they don’t have the silver trim inside them. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

Congratulations J, looks great with the steelies. Keep an eye on how white they remain as I’ve seen a110 around these parts with them and after the winter they look more cream than white, maybe not properly washed but as the rest of the car was normally gleaming I suspect the wheel paint has not stood the test of gritted roads.

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!

Looks great. In my view they only look good with the white steel wheels, all the alloys are horrible. Especially with the white roof.

The wheels will rust, they all do. But they’re cheap to get blasted and painted every 5-10 years.

Good luck with your collection on Wednesday J, it’s been a long wait.
At least you you got it into the U.K. before the dealers all have to start saying “we are waiting for parts to come from Asia but they are stuck in the Suez Canal”

Oh yes, that’s Defender.

It won’t be to everyone’s tastes, but I love it, the steel wheels just make a massive difference to the look.

Proper photos will follow on Wednesday, when I can move out of the orders and into the My new Defender section.

Looking good!
Great how different the various colours and wheels make the cars look compared to usual euroboxes.
They almost look like different models. 90S D250 fuji and loving it.

I do hope that Defender’s tow rope went via a snatch block on the opposite back of the canal otherwise the car will be pulling the ship further up the bank ............

When it arrived with the alloys my heart sank, I told them to either source the steel wheels or sell it to someone else. The steel wheels were the one thing that’s been on my 1 million plus configurations, I wouldn’t have the old Defender on alloys either.

Pick it up at 12 on Wednesday. Can’t wait

Just channeling their Limestone heritage.

Have you checked the spare?

I can see the foggers and the circle is not plastic white so I'd say the lights are right Steve N | 21MY Defender

That’s Incontrol all set up, no issues with using the latest app.

I hope it’s in the workshop as all its windows are open. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

I assume you needed something from the dealer to do that - more than just Reg and VIN? Steve N | 21MY Defender

Ceramic pro coat the wheels that will keep them cleaner longer and offer a form of protection.

Car looks fantastic, I was going to say last week that the 19” alloys looked good on it but the steels are even better, good choice

I just received an email and clicked on the link, logged into my account and gave it a name and that was it. It maybe helped that I had an account already. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

That’s was the same with mine as soon as the funds had been transferred over to the dealership I got emails to set things up with the car.
