Yes, Yulong White - not quite as obvious as the pearlescent BMW equivalent which I really like.
I changed my mind so many times before finally committing as not only was I unsure until I saw one in the flesh - but I was concerned about the TOWIE "Raiynge" image too.
I will be driving this to Africa in the not too distant future and was advised white or white is preferable for the climate / region.
I will report back on my experience of what I believe is a new way of buying a Land Rover here in the UK once I have the keys

What excuse is the dealer giving you ?
Mines was due last week and still waiting for an answer to the reason of delay

No excuses - no information. I have been provided access to a portal which gives me status updates.... Not much changed since I placed the order in July 2017 despite being told that I shall be advised when it goes into build,
I sold my old car in anticipation of the November delivery so I have been renting a car since.
I want to pre-empt any additional delays so that I can make arrangements if necessary. -

I have been told 12 weeks for the build, including delivery. Deposit was paid in September. Car was then specced up in October and was deliberately stalled till November, so that it would have the updated MY18 dash and other few upgrades. Dealer informed me that they won't have a problem delaying delivery for a month, as I dont want a 67 plate when the 18 plate is just around the corner. Has been guaranteed March 1st delivery. LR HQ has been emailed my order number at their request, as they will prioritise the build incase there are any hiccups, as they don't want a repeat of the fiasco with the FE which was 7 weeks late, even though the garage guaranteed delivery on March 1st this year. Fingers crossed it will arrive on time

If it's delayed into Feb, I might consider waiting for the new plate also.
Although at this rate any theoretical uplift on the value of a newer plate car is being spent internet shopping for accessories while I wait..
