Made an offer on this unregistered 90 D200 SE
Offer rejected!
Now very rare 90 D200 SE Tasman Blue unregistered been sat in the showroom for more than 12 months…….. it’s now a very rare beast because it’s the 4 cylinder D200 not the 6 cylinder
Why isn’t it actively being sold - because JLR want them to have one “new” New Defender on display if possible and all the other cars going through them are pre-sold/ customer orderx

Very rare indeed, I didn’t think any 4 cylinder 90s made it out the factory.

I do like the 90, kind of having second thoughts on selling mine. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

I asked the sales guy when I should place an order for a June 2023 delivery on a D250 90 HSE with air suspension and rear ediff and he reckoned, going on their allocations, I’m too late for a June 2023 delivery…………
Seeing as they seem to have no new orders to take and only a couple of used ones on the forecourt (I could have had a choice of used D5’s ) I wonder how they could justify having 6 sales people sat at their desks. I couldn’t even get an June 2023 order for an IPace but I could have a used one at a crazy marked up sticker price…… 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

There’s no incentive to speed the order process back up to pre-covid levels - with demand completely outstripping supply and prices way above RRP, it’s a win win for the manufacturers. I can imagine order cancellations are at an all time low and used stock isn’t sat about for weeks/months. 2008 2.4 110 Utility Station Wagon XS.

The days of cheap cars have gone, unfortunately.

This is a good (bad) watch for those interested.

I would say whilst orders and demand is up. Supply is not coming through. So my dealer over the last 11 months has earned the square root of nothing.

Similarly the price of second hand is high but the buy in price is high. Quite a few P400e on the market now, all inflated price wise. Who is going to blink first.

Oh yes, my 2 bed bungalow cost £42000 including buying the serviced plot in 1984. In 2013 I had a Winter Garden Room 5m x 4m built on the back cost the same as the house - recently had a valuation and had to sit down with a stiff drink when I was told the value for selling it! If I were starting over again as a 1st time buyer there’s no way I could afford to buy this house, it was a stretch when I did but it would be out of the question now. 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

Perhaps it’s just 110s but Dundee reckon I would get one in September, possibly earlier. They say Defenders are starting to coming through but they can’t get D5s Laughing 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue
