    Received Delivery Date

    Got my dates today:

    17 March into build and 7 April delivery. Apparently, it's as I thought The high spec models will be first and then progressively down the spec for later deliveries so I'm stuck with the higher VED.

    Good that you have a date Bill Smile

    Will chase up my dealers

    So am I right that up to 17th March you can change minor stuff of order i.e. Interior colour & add stuff like heated steering wheel?

    I think that the cut off date for spec alterations is a little earlier Pete. For me, 17 Mar is the start of the build and presumably the data system has to be loaded prior to that. I can check?

    Hi,

    LDOC date ( Last Date Order Change) is usually about 6 weeks before build.

    For a new model it might be slightly earlier to allow LR to set up the logistics.

    As soon as the build website opened which I think was in September. I also paid a deposit back in June. Thumbs Up

    Hi

    This probably sounds stupid.

    I've paid the £1000 for order priority sat with dealer discussed and printed out my build configuration.
    Does this mean I've a firm order?

    Will have to give them a call tomorrow!

    You will be in your dealers que or holding pool, whatever it's called.

    My dealer got their allocated build slots on Friday, he'll let me know on Monday when he's back. Their estimation was 8th March Rolling with laughter
