Heritage build date
Just heard from my dealer that he has been given a build date of Nov 13th for my 110 Heritage. By the time it's delivered and PDI'd will presumably be registered in December, making it one of the last UK deliveries.

Not a bad Christmas present!

Anyone else been given a date?

My dealer suggested late November...

I would actually like the 400 'Heritage' editions to be last off the line... given that HUE 166 was the first , it just seems quite fitting really! Thumbs Up YOLO... You Only Live Once...

The Brisbane Dealer said my 90 Adventure would be here and ready to collect in October, reading the above I think he might of got his wires crossed or hasn't got a clue, reckon I'll see it next year!

I did wonder about the 2016 registration idea, but not sure if they can be registered in the UK after December, because of the same EU regs which are bringing Defender production to an end. Does anyone know the final date for registrations?

Nidge, don't know your age, but I know what you mean!

I think the Adventures might be available earlier than the Heritage, but I might be wrong.

Whatever happens, they will be amongst the last.
