Just been told from the dealer there is a chance the Defender I've ordered is going to be a 2014 spec. So i will be getting a 2014 spec for the price of the 2013 spec, so in other words, free abs and traction control, and DEFENDER on the bonnet

The 2014 spec started production on the 25th November, and my defender was built on the 4th December.


INTERESTING EYYYYYY????? Laughing

"I don't gamble" said Lewis, without a hint of irony, after buying a new Land Rover!

Hope it turns out to be a good one and wasn't assembled in a hurry as the last job of the day. Look forward to hearing your feedback post-delivery and a few pix.

I thought they were all built in a hurry so we had something to do at the weekends - Its a cunning plan to get all owners to bond with their vehicle they spend that much time fettling it Whistle 2020 P300 HSE

Fettling a new car is good fun - tweaking it can be very satisfying. Selecting and sourcing accessories that enhance your Defender ownership experience can be a real pleasure.

Putting right shoddy components and sloppy couldn't care less workmanship is just plain irritating.

That's why I really hope every purchaser of a new Defender between now and the end of the line gets a good un!

Well today I've been to the garage to sort the finnance documents out for the defender, I've had a little trouble getting finance as I'm 21 live with parents and have no out goings apart from a phone bill.

But anyways its sorted,


One good thing, i have a 2014 spec defender for the price of a 2013 model. So i can't be complaining.

Will be posting some pictures when it arrives

I have a very similar scenario to yourself, looking to place the order this weekend!
Although i have already had one finance deal signed off with another dealer so getting this one done should be easier!

Having saved since i was 20 its all about what works best for me... blowing the lot in one go or spread the spend over a 24month period while still earning good interest in my ISA. I did have a rather shocked sales assistant when i told him my spec and extras though!

Out of interest (no pun intended), what deals have you guys got (in terms of the finance)?

HIRE PURCHASE

30% deposit.
5% apr over three years with Black Horse

£350 for gap insurance


I think that makes sense

If you insure with NFU the first two years of a new car are covered for "new replacement", so the equivalent of GAP insurance....at least that's my understanding when I bought my D4 two years ago.

Just a thought...

Cheers
