    Aussie pricing

    Just had a chat to my local LR dealer. He expects pricing to be "several months" away yet. When challenged as to why USA and UK pricing is already available he could only say Australia is a different market and there is no way to know what negotiations are going on for compliance issues, regulatory blockers etc etc.

    I asked as to why no options for winch, side steps are on the "configuration tool" .. maybe also due to same issues with Aussie regulations/standards etc. But he does expect that most of these things will be "dealer fitted options" if not at launch, but at least as after-sales.

    Sorry guys, not good news.

    It’s pretty obvious that USA and UK are the priority markets.
    ...they didn’t do any testing in Oz??
    ...Maybe it’s not even coming here!

    I think its a hoax, like climate change, man on the moon and that the world is round.

    Just got an email from the stealer telling me that pricing is now available. Methinks I'll wait awhile before considering getting one ...... that's if the Cook even lets me think about it.

    What I can't wrap my head around, is why we can't spec the model/options we want, and get a price online, like the UK. Not a problem specific to the defender of course

    Its seems like AU is always behind, just get the links from your builds, email or text it to your local dealer.
