Well things are looking better, they have sourced a donor car and will switch wheels. Next issue is it has the centre console which I deleted in favour of the walk through, which I can live with.

Bonus though, it has arrived with full grained leather rather than the part leather stain easy seats Very Happy so anybody waiting on an S it will have full leather.

Will now pick it up on Wednesday. I do take my hat off to my salesman as he has spent most of the day trying to source the steel wheels, as nothing is coming out the factory, he’s only delivered one 90.

Here’s a slightly better photo, it’s taken from the dealer video I got sent.

Excellent - I could never really see how you could ''walk through' the walkthrough - you've gained a cubby/armrest.

What colour leather did you specifiy? Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

Ebony and I went with the white crossbeam.

I was kinda thinking I had made an error going for the walk through, the space it opened up was nice but I would miss the armrest. So perhaps dodged a bullet there. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

Yes your right. The left arm needs that console. It’s very well designed. 2021 Defender 110 X-Dynamic HSE D300 MHEV

Looking great !, I think the console can be removed if you like. Suppose the floorliner is full under there. No Mud flaps for my 90.!

I’m waiting to see what they come back with, I’m not a fan of those wheels. Other than that the car looks fab and I was set to collect it Monday afternoon.


We were definitely on the same train. Friday afternoon for me Wink

They do look good in Tasman Blue Thumbs Up

Though I notice yours has a build defect, it’s steering wheel is on the wrong side Laughing 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

Good luck with your collection on Wednesday J, it’s been a long wait.
At least you you got it into the U.K. before the dealers all have to start saying “we are waiting for parts to come from Asia but they are stuck in the Suez Canal”

Cheers Tim, my steel wheels are probably on that ship Laughing

It’s getting put on a trailer on Monday and taken to Pentland Elgin for the wheel swap from a Hard Top as the owner wants alloys on it.

I’m surprised it came with leather as I thought they were introducing it on 22MY

I’m looking forward to it, it will be the 2nd 90 Dundee has delivered, they just can’t get them. There’s just nothing coming out the factory. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

Seems odd to trailer it up to Elgin, surely quicker and cheaper to take steelies off and send them south in a van?

I recently had an offer from a dealer down south to change my 110 FE to a 90 XS on the basis of no cost to change - used FE D240 110 prices are holding up very well apparently 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

J77,

When you collect it, have a VERY close look at the C-post trims!!

When our dealer peeled off the white plastic transit film, they found that dust, dirt, rubbish had worked it’s way under the edge of the film and permanently marked the surface.

I only mention it as I can see the near side film has lifted already on the photo you have posted!!!

We (jointly) tried various things to get rid of the marks but some of them are too deep.

New trims are on back order (ETA 21st April at the moment) and just clip on, so they’ll swap them while we wait.
