Another Causeway Grey - this time an XS
I'm adding to the Causeway Grey trend it seems. I have an XS due to be delivered around June time. I normally buy nearly new, but the (small) discount on offer plus getting the exact spec wanted made me wait.. It seems to be quite difficult to find S/H examples with the locking rear diff - I assume no-one goes for that option?

Welcome Nice choice
Rear diff is a personal choice ...it will still go anywhere without one ....but a bit smoother with one 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

Did you order recently for June delivery? I'm hoping for a mid-May delivery having ordered at the end of January.

Ordered mid-March. The differing lead times intrigue me. Do dealers have slots allocated to fill? - it certainly seems like it as some people seem to get their cars built earlier than others.

I s'pose it's only a difference of a couple of weeks - mine's scheduled to be about 15 weeks from order to delivery, i guess yours'll be maybe 13?
The ones I find intriguing are the ones ordered mid-March and delivered mid-April!

Causeway Grey is the way to go, looks great clean or dirty

The D4 has been with me a week or so, and is doing its best to look dirty. OK, I know this isn't 'dirt' to a committed D4 driver.

Nice, now careful you don't scuff the tyres on the driveway

I've been terrified of that - obviously Some of the 6'6 width restrictors I have to get through are more of a challenge though.
On that note - I assume the D4 doesn't fit through the new full height Rotherhithe Tunnel width restrictors - has anyone tried by any chance?
