Looks daft.

Apparently they also have another colour available

On a caravan forum a guy is claiming the first 600 cars are going to be "first editions" , can anyone confirm or pour cold water on this ? Do it now ! Your a long time dead !!

From LR media, doesn't say anything about the first 600 though.

Quote:

1.7​First Edition launch model

To celebrate the launch of New Discovery, an exclusive First Edition model limited to only 2,400 examples will showcase some of the key design and technology features.

First Edition models are available in three striking exterior colour combinations and with three interior colourways, giving the very first customers a genuinely distinctive proposition. Bespoke details include aluminium interior trim on the facia and doors featuring an etched map motif in celebration of New Discovery’s British design and engineering credentials.

Customers can specify First Edition vehicles in Namib Orange with a black grille and detailing, Narvik Black contrast roof and 21-inch black wheels or Silicon Silver with the same black grille and detailing and 21-inch silver wheels. It is also available in Farallon Black with 21-inch silver wheels and black grille and detailing.

The rest of the range comprises S, SE, HSE and HSE Luxury derivatives, with an optional Black Design Pack available on all but S variants. Comprehensively equipped S models feature 19-inch alloy wheels, four-mode Terrain Response and two-zone manual climate control.

All SE models feature air suspension, automatic climate control and upgraded audio while HSE trim provides leather upholstery, satellite navigation, 20-inch alloy wheels and LED headlamps.

Top of the range HSE Luxury derivatives include Windsor Leather upholstery, 21-inch alloy wheels and a panoramic sunroof as standard among a host of advanced convenience and safety features.

Thanks taz , he got the "info" from some car website , I told him once I see it on a LR site then I would believe him . Let's be honest how long will it take LR sell 600 first editions? So in this guys head LR won't sell any other variant until these 600 are sold. Do it now ! Your a long time dead !!

Apologies if this has been discussed previously. I'm looking to potentially move to a Disco Sport next year. I'd like a HSE black but don't want to pay over £40k for a vehicle and I don't want 20 inch wheels. I do use my vehicle off road and in the snow and need a good sturdy all season tyre. Don't want low profile tyres.

My question is, is it possible to get a black grille on any other model? Does anybody have one? I've specced an SE Tech with black roof but don't think that includes the black grille or 'Discovery' lettering.

I bought an HSE with 19" Goodyear wrangler all season tyres and it performed superbly in Feb when we had bad weather

I've had 20" and 19" on RRS previously and 20" were poor so I wouldn't want them again

Some owners have created their own black pack buying bits or spraying - the pedestrian airbag can't be sprayed and has caused a few headaches  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Still hoping for a S2 one day!

Are the Goodyear has the snowflake symbol as well?

Sorry I've sold it now so can't check but I don't think they did

I can ask guys on discosportforum to be sure if you want  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Amazing number of DS 2nd hand on LR site. OK some are the original 2.2 engine but an awful lot of 2 litre models as well. Suspect discounts available for new models from some of the broker outfits. MY 09 GS manual in Lago Grey, Wood Co arm rest and side bumper strips - now sold.

MY 15 SD4 SE Auto Orkney Grey with colour coded Bumper Door Mouldings

Amazing number of DS 2nd hand on LR site.

They will be coming off personal and company contract now. Unless they are priced really competitively that's exactly where they will remain in my humble opinion. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years
FL2 MY13 TD4 GS Current

Not much ...

I got £2500 discount off a 2.0 HSE June last year through ukcarbroker before even launched and some owners got dealers to discount - mainly stratstone I think so deals are there

Local dealers were quoting no discount and waiting lists but I still managed it  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW
