A friend is involved in the project and told me last week that D5 had been "put back" to October 2016.

Deposits can be placed now to secure a place in your dealers que for first delivery. I done it with the DS a year in advance and I was 9th in there que at that point, not sure I would do it again though, constant delays and cars put in quarantine due to faults.

How much deposit was required & on what terms please?

Was it held in an escrow account, or was it at risk if the dealer had financial problems?

They normally take £1000 but I only ever give £500 (bought 8 LRs from them) it's fully refundable or put to another model.

I'm not sure how secure the deposit is should your dealer have financial difficulties.

I guess one pays the deposit with a credit card for security?

Mine has always been paid with plastic.

It's rare that I carry cash, usually just a tenner just in case my Disco coincidentally brakes down at a burger van Whistle

Well I loved my Discovery 3 and the two 4s I owned. But this article fills me with dread to be honest, there is already a RRS and FFRR and Evoque why does the Discovery have to become luxury orientated as well with an equally unachievable price tag to match for many on the forum. Big Cry The disco sport seems to have taken the spot of the current discovery pricing wise.

Might just order a HSE and keep it forever between that and the Td5.
