Very nice! I'm sure that you will love it, I have enjoyed owning mine, best car I have ever owned. You will be spending most of your time cleaning it if you are going black.

The wait is the hardest bit, I'm counting down the days to March!

You not waiting for the 14 plate? Might be better come resale time.

I cannot wait lol - ill plate up as 14 - anything with 4NDY in it lol! MY14 SD4 HSE LUX, Colour - Santorini Black, Spare Alloy, Privacy Glass, Front & rear SS tread plates, Chrome arse, Official LR coat hanger!! <-- Going soon... Any offers?

You can't have a 14 plate if the car is registered before 1st March. Or do you mean a private plate?

Yea, private plate. I was hoping for MY14NDY but it's gone  MY14 SD4 HSE LUX, Colour - Santorini Black, Spare Alloy, Privacy Glass, Front & rear SS tread plates, Chrome arse, Official LR coat hanger!! <-- Going soon... Any offers?

That's a shame. good luck with the search.

Um.....unless I'm having a brain fart, (which is entirely possible) you still won't be able to put a 14 plate on the car if you pick it up and register it in February.

The only way you could do it would be to collect the car and not register it AT ALL (and therefore not drive it, unless you have trade plates) until March 2014, then you can put a 14 plate on it.

If you pick up the car AND register it with a bog standard 63 plate in Feb 2014, then you won't be able to put a 14 plate on the car in March 2014 as it will make it appear newer.

Or am I completely misunderstanding????

Yes, I'm confused aswell. As you said, he wouldn't be able to have a 14 plate at all, even if it was a private plate.

! Perhaps it'll need to be a bit different in design  MY14 SD4 HSE LUX, Colour - Santorini Black, Spare Alloy, Privacy Glass, Front & rear SS tread plates, Chrome arse, Official LR coat hanger!! <-- Going soon... Any offers?

Tell your dealer to delay delivery until 1st March, and then you can have your 14 plate.

I would wait till 1st March also Dont see the point in registering a car as a 63 plate! For the sake of a few weeks  MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

Dealer might not play ball, as he'll want the car in his month end figures for February, but it's gotta be worth a shot.

If you don't turn up on the day to register it, what can they do i.e you could be in bed with a winter bug for a few weeks  MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior
