They are fitted at the dealers so no reason why they can’t be deleted.

🤔 Simon you have me thinking now as to how wise it was to order wheel arch protection! So much so, I have just asked the dealer if if I can delete it at this late stage!

I personally like gloss black finishers, and have just asked myself if grained black wheel arches would sit well with gloss black door bottoms!

Does the XDynamic have gloss black wheel arch finishers as standard? Never seen one in the flesh!




I believe the small standard wheel arch finisher is the Gloss Black on X Dynamic..

Ok The dealer has confirmed they are gloss black. Therefore I’ve deleted The wheel arch protection. Dealer says there is no problem if I want to retrofit this afterwards. That’s 500 quid saved! 2021 Defender 110 X-Dynamic HSE D300 MHEV

So the dealer just contacted me and as one of you hinted at above, "built" does not actually mean "built" it means "in the process of being built, but unfortunately still waiting for some bits".

So absolutely no chance of seeing the car until some time next year. At which stage no doubt all the arguments will start about the value of my P/X, potential import duties etc etc.

Just got this email through from JLR does anyone know roughly how long the vehicle will take to arrive at the dealership? I can’t get any response from the dealership, very frustrating! Anyone else having problems with Stratstone Newcastle?

Further to my previous post I had a call from the dealer (as well as a short video clip) to say that it arrived with them today. I received that email on the 11th so three weeks give or take.

Remember all LR’s systems only work to a ‘week ending’ date.
