She’s arrived !!!

Finally got myself an L663 Defender - 110 XS P400 Silicon Silver
Cancelled order been used as a demo for a couple of weeks - ‘72 plate 400 miles on the clock.
Yes - I know - I’ll have to post some pic’s !!!
To be honest I’ve spent most of the day putting all my stuff in the car (junk as my wife calls it!)
Also been getting the configurations how I want them.

Really pleased so far everything fits - found the under floor space in the back good, have fitted the half height dog guard to keep pouch where he’s supposed to be.

as we all know there is NO HANDBOOK with the vehicle.

the sales guy didn't even point me in the direction of on-line manual.

It was only on THIS site I found the on-line manual. !!! (but I did have a very poor dealer experience)

Initially very impressed -
Seems to have a fair amount of get up and go - all be it I’m sure I’ll pay for that at the pump.
Having said that it was certainly not bought with that in mind !

Surprised in the XS that I didn’t get many USB and charging points
I got the 3 in the front middle below the gear change
I didn’t get the one in the dash tray in front of the passenger
I didn’t get the 4 on the rear of the center arm rest
Odd but I’m sure I’ll survive

There is a shortage of USB ports, this has been well documented and should be retrofitted by dealer when available. There are only 2 provided on the rear of the console, not 4 as you state. So you should get these 2 fitted and the one on the passengers dash. You mention that you have 3 below the gear-lever which is unusual as normally only a USB A and a USB C 110 XS 250 MY 23 Gondwana Stone, Cold climate pack and towbar

Those painted wheel arches look vulnerable.

Maybe, but this appears to be a UK vehicle.
