I have ordered two new cars this week, its definitely as similar storey with other manufacturers. I don't think it's model dependent more exact options included in the spec that are throwing anomalies in delivery dates.

I have ordered a D5 3.0l Dynamic HSE. I added 12 options but they are not all what I wanted I was guided by the dealer not to spec the HUD or Deployable Towpack as these instantly put the build to the back of the queue.

The other car is an EV, similar storey but a little more frustrating as so many basics are options with the manufacturer even folding wing mirrors! The disco might be delivered March but I'll be happy if I get both for September plates next year, any earlier will be a bonus.


Car was ready to go in September subject to a dash (i.e no other items was causing a build issue). So builds ordered up to 5months after mine, with the digital dashes, now have build slots? Doesnt stack up.

Yep the P400E is a little difficult to get hold of. Hence I didnt bother ordering one to replace the hybrid I already had.

Dealer mentioned that he still had an P400E unslotted, which I pointed out was expected.

Not sure as other, later orders, are coming through with tow bars. Activity key maybe? But I'm sure the dealer would have noted a issue with this.

I think April is a bad month. And rather then pushing all months back by working through in a sequential order they are slotting the backlog "in" where possible. June, July seemed to be better months. Now May orders are coming through. Maybe April next as they work through the backlog?

Either way its a race before the MY23 build release. Might drive an X5 45E in the meantime (But I rather take a P400E even with the four pot engine). Sadly can't pursuade SWMBO to consider an Tesla X. Overriding feeling is to sit tight until next year if the Defender order falls through.

Still no update Order July 7th
As I promised my dealer I'll not call him in October and be patient to wait for November and hope to have an update, I was wondering if anyone here had a July Order that has gotten a recent build date.

Thanks 110 D250 SE Tasman Blue, white roof, black pack, advanced towing pack, rear diff locker, driver assist

I just had a call from the Land Rover dealer, I have yet another salesman, this is the third since July! No wonder the last guy wasn’t replying to me, must have been something I said…

He said they have been told by Land Rover that all Defender orders are being prioritised over other models and that any order that was placed by September 1st will (should) be delivered within 6 months… watch this space for a change!

Other models are looking like 12-18 months delivery now Shocked

So looks like I will get it by March at the latest or possibly January if the orders are sequenced as placed.

Could be worse.... and no doubt it will be before it arrives, but I mustn't be cynical!

I know it will be worth the wait Very Happy


Have you had any update from your dealer? I ordered mine on July 7th and "order confirmed" on July 15th. Next mail I'll ask for an updated Vista2 print out... Wink 110 D250 SE Tasman Blue, white roof, black pack, advanced towing pack, rear diff locker, driver assist

Wow I'll say congratulations for a very quick build and a great car. I guess my order around 10-12 days later then yours doesn't mean I'll get mine mid of November.
But I'll just wait another 10 days and just ring the dealer and ask for an update....
