Thread: Joining the RRS family!!

Nice choice. I have managed to talk two people into buying a new RRS when the leases were up on their older vehicles. One upgraded from a Mercedes ML AMG and the other had a 200 Series Cruiser. They absolutely love their new RRS and I am sure you will too. The wait is going to hurt though!

Thanks Cripesamighty, We will be coming from a Audi Q5. Big difference in cars. Can't wait it hurts, your right. Especially when the RRS brochure is floating around house reminding me that we bought one!!

I've heard of 6months wait on a D4,,

Congratulations! usually 8 to 10 weeks for delivery, mine was about 9 weeks.

Thanks SBD4.. I hope its about 8 weeks!!

6 months on D5 that's scary!!

My RRS was ordered on 4 May, and was placed on the ship on 29 June. It is due in at Fremantle on 31 July. That should give you some idea of timelines. Apparently will take at least another 2 weeks after that for compliance and pre-delivery. I have told the dealer to stick the pre-delivery clean/detail, getting it done properly with paint and interior protection as well as tinting with another supplier I have used on my other vehicles.

I'm new to the forum. I've got to say I've been creeping around and reading a lot of posts which I have found to be very useful information about RRS. Thought I would introduced myself and say hi.

I'll be joining the the Land Rover family soon enough with the arrival of a MY16 RRS. We ordered the Rangie on the 9th May. Just got a email from the dealer saying build date is 12th of August. We are very excited and can't wait. So usually it's 2 months from this date for dealer delivery or longer?

Cheers

Hi and welcome to the forum.

What RRS have you ordered?

Your timing above is about right......mine was handed over 5 months to the day I ordered it. 2.5 months from order to the build date, then 2.5 months to be delivered. If you can get your VIN number from the dealer you will be able to find which ship it is being delivered on and track its progress to Australia. Usually takes approx 2 weeks from landing in Oz to go through customs and compliance then delivery to the dealer.

Wow Brick, that's a good turn around time for delivery of RRS, 3 and half months you may have got it before the mad rush it sounds like? When we were looking to buy the dealer said there is going to be a 5 months build and delivery wait kinda had that in our mind going in to it.

You must be getting pump for your RRS not long now 3 weeks to go to add to your collection of cars which may I say is a nice collection indeed!!
