I assume the replacement is just the centre panel for £700. Then add labour, colour coding etc. Perhaps they keep the original piece? No idea.


On their site there is a CAD drawing - it looks like an insert.

There would be paint on top of the price but I'm guessing that fitting is a matter of fixing the panel in place.

It seems a simple solution for those who want the functionality of the Disco but are fussed about their reg placement.

Very interesting to note the tag line... "the most capable Land Rover so far"

this implies to me that they know another one is in the works and will have the tag line "the most capable Land Rover ever"

A subtle but potentially important difference.

I have a customer who is waiting on SVX info
He paid a deposit the day it was announced, but we have still heard nothing

I contacted the SVO Concierge team just two weeks ago , for something to feed back to the customer after a 6month wait

Apparently it is still a concept Rolling Eyes My confidence has been writing cheques that my abilities can't cash for years.

Yeah, unfortunately they are remaining very tight lipped about this

Pricing & dates are very much a mystery Rolling Eyes

Not good when somebody just wants an answer to let the dealership know if he is going to go ahead or not My confidence has been writing cheques that my abilities can't cash for years.

There have been indications of price and although delivery dates haven't been confirmed, information is filtering through and I'd suggest my comment above is close to the way it will play out. Anyone involved in marketing will know that there is a fine line between building anticipation and making the customer wait too long and therefore losing their interest. The car buying public are a fickle lot and making them wait for a niche version of a mainstream product for more than 12-months after the announcement will risk a signifigant portion of them dropping off and moving onto the next thing.

In terms of price, I'd be surprised if it isn't circa SVR money (£90k)
