I agree always a hit or a miss, when I done the Evoque it was back in 2 days.

I thought about bringing it out on its 13 plate, but I've always put my own plate on from new, I don't feel like its my car until its on.

Is that just vanity? 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

Yes Cupar, the 5 LRs I've bought from them they have been excellent in sales and after sales. Not to impressed with Perth though. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

Yes, they are good. Thought I recognised the yard and the Vauxhall Dealership over the road.

Big Cry Big Cry no. DVLA dragging their heels over plate change. I now wish I had brought it out with its 13 reg.

The worst bit is I done a reg check on that my reg check website and my plate is still registered to the Evoque, I don't know how up to date they are.

Spoke with salesman and he says, as they are closing down the DVLA local offices, the Dundee branch may have redirected the transfer to swansea Shocked

My car is ready and waiting, plates are on, just need that tax disc to come through. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

Having picked up my Mauritius blue SD4 Auto XS last Friday I know you'll enjoy every moment, the waiting will have been worth it I'm sure and the colour is stunning in real life. Happy motoring!! Joanne

They are very few and far between on the road at the moment as well, which makes them stand out. It wasn't a colour I would have spec'd (mine is ex demo), but I really love it now. Joanne

Got a call from my salesman to say he was working late, and I could come along and do the handover tonight.

First impressions are good, feels a lot smoother than my Evoque and a lot more solid. Had a play with the sat nav and SWYS system all seems pretty straight forward.

One thing though, some members on here have commented on notchy gear changes but I have found it silky smooth.

Pictures will follow. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200
