I guess my previous point about model years was really about the likely timing of the "exit point" offered - i.e. (guessing) 2 weeks or so prior to build?

For your/my situation, i.e. Mar/Apr 23 delivery in Aus, and accounting for, say, 10 weeks on the sea and 4-6 weeks laydown at either end, that would make a build date very much around the Dec 22/ Jan 23.

Is that around the time the new model year occurs?

I don't know. MY current Defender was ordered in March 2008 and delivered as a 2009 MY in late July 2008.

I don't know the significance of the change of model year: is it meant to flag a significant spec change?

Significance of model year changeover unknown, i'm just musing. At a minimum I expect a price increase and a few less semi-conductors...

still optimistic for an awesome car! : )

Hmm.. wasnt that old one delivered as a birthday present??

So TWO new Land Rovers as prezzys ...

Mate, someone must love you... [bigwhistle]

The first Defender was her birthday present.
