2021 D300 Ordered - newbie - GOT IT(P4)!
New here. A growing family means I am upgrading to a 7 seater, and after swearing not to go back to JLR thanks to their refusal to acknowledge oil dilution issues in a SDV6 RRS I had a couple of years ago, I was pleasantly surprised to see the facelift Disco engines and Infotainment. A trip to my dealers and I have ordered:
D300 HSE R-Dynamic, which has kit as standard other manufacturers charge an arm and a leg for. (surround camera, adaptive cruise, blind spot, dual pan roof, air cool seats, electric seating through all three rows etc), meaning I only had to lightly touch the paid options list:
Carpathian Grey
Advanced Off-Road Capability Pack (purely for resale value)
Heated washer jets
Heated steering wheel
Wireless device charging with phone signal booster
Privacy glass
Black Roof rails
I got my dealer to match DTD, so a very healthy discount.
I've been told 12 weeks until delivery

Nice one.
Ordered mine 4 weeks ago after having my Sept order cancelled for 21 my build but not had any update from dealer yet on del .
Assumed it will be about Feb .
The original order would have given us the D5 by now but stopped production of 20my meant we had to put a fresh order in . -

Can I ask what discount percentage did you get from your dealer?

I think whatever happens I'll wait for March the 1st so it can be a 21 plate. It'l also give us time to nail spec questions such as "is the wireless charging pad sunken recess big enough for an iPhone Pro Max?" or "Can you disable keyless, if not what does the 'Secure Pro' add to combat KESSY thefts etc?" which will determine if I tick options or not.

I loved my 20MY Carpathian SDV6, looking forward to the pics of yours when it arrives.
We were all set to go Elgar with black wheels, but when the dealer tried to sell me this unregistered pre-facelift car that was in Carpathian & bi-colour wheels my partner and I both fell in love with the colour and decided to spend the extra we were going put into black wheels, instead into the extra needed for Carpathian. It works so well against the black accents and bi-colour wheels, it gives it a touch of class...

8% ontop of the headline £2500 FDA (which is actually split £1250 from JLR and £1250 from the dealer). -

Thanks for the Link, nice to see the depth the manul goes into is as ambiguous as ever!
So unless I've missed something, MY21 isn't wireless CarPlay as had been suggested by the dealer?!?

oh excellent, answers one of my questions, does it have the same 3D spinner view of the vehicle like the Defender? Answer: yes.

For those who may be interested, I have an answer re the Wireless CarPlay...
All Pivi Pro is currently 'wired', and in Feb 2021 LR are dropping an OTA software update which enables wireless CarPlay/AA across all Pivi Pro equipped cars.
All new Disco's are planned to be delivered with this functionality and/or will get the update when it's rolled out. -

any of you in the UK seen a color sample of the new Charente Grey and if so could you describe it?
I've not seen it in person, but my dealer told me from light/dark it sits somewhere in-between Elgar and Carpathian, but it has a more 'golden' feel to it. It's been available on Jags for a few months longer, so maybe see if you can find some pics of one.
Heh, if it's too "gold" my wife isn't going to like it.
Thanks!
