Well today was the today, picked up our new MY14 Discovery, absolutely stoked.
We had some issues with LR over the final spec of the car, it was ordered with:
E diff
Premium Leather
Privacy Glass
Meridian Sound system
Rear Camera Bi Xenons & Signature DRL's
Front Distance Sensors
LandRover Corporate Plan

However when it arrived at the dealers, it also had:
Surround camera system
Powerfold door mirrors
Wade sensor
Blind spot monitoring
Reverse traffic detection system

So after quibbling with LR we got the extra stuff $1200.00, or otherwise it was going to be another build to the original spec...and the wait again, so we figured it was a bargain buy with all added equipment. The car is sensational and just fabulous to drive.

Needless to say the grin is from ear to ear

Far out, hope our new D4 comes with a few 'hidden extras' as well. Gotta be happy with all of that for $1200! Will make it a very attractive car come resale time.

Looks great, just makes my still 15 week wait all that much harder :D

Looks great mate. Is it a HSE?
My wife has just brought home a White HSE SD v6 with black pack - it looks pretty hot.
Traded in a HSE disco 3 with the V8 petrol.. I was surprised that the SD V6 is actually a bit quicker than the old V8 petrol.
