Thread: Not many NEW ones left?

Obviously, there are a few "on the water", as we speak, and maybe even a few (very few at this stage!) yet to be built, but I wonder how many of these are actually unsold?
Has anyone tried to buy "a new one" in the last couple of weeks?
Pickles.

I know where there is a crew cab 130.

As of a couple of hours ago Brighton Land Rover have one new 90 left...

There's one less new one around since I drove mine of the showroom floor this afternoon too...

Well, Congratulations....a lovely Christmas present.
What are your specs/colour etc, and what are the details of the remaining 90?
Regards, Pickles.

Back from a quick trip and now have just over 2500k's on the clock but we're getting on well. Very impressed with how capable it is off road. It's a scotia grey with the black pack.

Ahh ya bugger! I wanted that 1!

I settled on a whitey with sawtooths, sun roof, leather, "sliders" and sound upgrade.

After this heat in Adelaide I'm rationalising this forced white paint more and more. Hope she treats you well.

Spare a thought for us poor beggers still waiting for delivery!

Sounds good, glad it's going well, and that you're enjoying it,...but there was never going to be any doubt about that, was there?!
Pics?....Pickles.

This one is sitting at the dealer in Bundy with a $49K window price

Here you go, a couple of pics:







It must be almost a record even for a Land Rover but the vehicle was in the driveway for less that two hours before I attacked it with a spanner. Needed to pull one of the rear seats out and stick an MDF shelf for the dogs to travel on the following day as a stop gap until I can work out what to do for drawers and cages etc...

Sorry AlecW, I've got to say I love the colour, but will concede the white is more practical. It's not been too bad so far but I'll let you know when I've got the roof lining out and laying dynamat so you can have a laugh at me... It'll be worth the wait when it arrives.
