    I had a heated windscreen on the LR3, it was amazing. so at 5 pm when its time to go home whilst your colleagues are scrapping and removing the half inch of ice the freezing rain dropped while you were in the office, you can just sit and wait a few minutes and phuttttt brush it off like it was powder snow. Very Happy

    Well, i figure i will be taking snow and ice off the rest while the windscreen and rear window defrost on their own.

    Will be interesting to find a good way to get ALL the snow off the roof. I'm 6'-1" but it still takes a good reach to get snow off. Better start searching for a good long snow removal broom soon. hahahahaha

    It's on it's way !
    It's onboard the Themis. Left Southampton on 20 August and should land in Halifax Canada on 28 August.
    Then it will be a waiting game to get on a train and onto the dealer. PDI etc

    Sales director says delivery will be at the end of September but i find it a bit long for it to take nearly a month from Halifax to the north of Montreal.

    Still, very happy to see it's on it's way.

    And i can see it's exact whereabouts on the ocean on this website

    Getting anxious, have not had a four wheel vehicle for a few months now and i do miss it.

    It landed in Halifax on the 25th instead of the 28th. Nice !
    It was discharged from the port on the 28th but cannot track it beyond this point.

    Sales director just called to say they've been invoiced by Land Rover Canada so it should be on a train in the coming days.
    Labour Day weekend means it probably won't be moving until Tuesday, but it's leaning towards a mid September delivery. Two weeks early, so i'm all good with that !
    Very Happy

    Sounds like good news to me and it means another one on the roads in QC Smile I saw 2 last weekend on the 40, my first. Although one did have Ontario plates .

    I haven't seen one on the road, yet.
    Only the one i tried a few months ago. But i was driving it so didn't see it on the road hahahahaha

    Will need to find safe places to go offroad. And by safe i mean somewhere that won't scratch it to hell and has some nice inclines and/or muddy trails.

    Have you been to the Land Rover Experience in Montebello yet ?
    I believe we get a free 3 hour Experience from Land Rover Canada.

    The Experience invite has not arrived yet and to be honest I have not had the time to take advantage of it yet . There has been a comment elsewhere on the forum that the invites are slow in arriving and aa call to the experience centre is the way to go

    Delivery is set for this Monday at 11am.
    Followed by a 1 hour "course" about the vehicle.
    That should be interesting, seeing as i am good at asking questions they never seem to know the answers to. Hahahahaha

    Sorry, i can't seem to get my image posted properly from my google drive.
    Does anyone know how i can fix this without editing the image or using a separate image sharing website ?
