Ended up going for a D250 HSE as it has the leather included. Really glad you posted the high price of the used 90 example I was considering.

Used prices are outrageous! There is one amongst the same spec as mine but not quite as good available on auto trader the moment for £14k more than I’m paying for mine. Bonkers!

Just to also ad on D240, its an engine used in many of the mass produced LRs so i dont think there are really any significant issues.
the 6cy D250 equiv again does have some concerning issues bubbling but even then i wouldnt say much to be worried about. I didnt notice much between d240 and d250 and have kept the d240. d200 seemed underpowered but most are happy and the d300 has nothing on the same in the disco so felt a let down in the courtesy car Clearly spec and standard features have changed weekly over the last few years! so keep checking on the detail Mike |

Went to look at my new one that has arrived at the dealership a week early and forgot to look under the bonnet to see if the air intake hose has been rerouted and to see if I could see any difference in the bracket for the auxy drive belt - I was a bit distracted by the disappointment that the car was not built as ordered…….. I’ll try look tomorrow when I’m back in town as I also didn’t notice if the towing pack had been fitted……. 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! |

Called in yesterday just to confirm things, as I want the extended black pack, privacy and ebony headlining, I am thinking i should change this to a X Dynamic HSE, the only draw back it that in the X Dynamic the vintage tan is only available as part tan, ebony and fabric, on the HSE its full Windsor tan, although maybe the X dynamic trim would be more practical

got an email to say it was due to the dealer next week so only a 4 month wait....
quick question, anyone with an X Dynamic know if the front 'X Dynamic' lower grille badge is easy to remove? not a fan of it there .
