Yes, St Abbs was hit quite hard by the storm. Spent several days with out power and a lot of structural adage as well as the tragic loss of the seal pups and other marine life Sad

What's the ETA of the X5 Bev? March/ April for us but I note the order has 03/03/22, on it. But then again my Defender had 05/09/21 Rolling with laughter

Feels odd going back to BMW but a great hybrid system, air sorts the ride out (which I hated of previous versions), and I managed to pursaude the Mrs to stay with the standard M sport 20in wheel to allow all season tyres to be fitted. Added the comfort pack, sunroof, sun protection and parking assist, and a Citroen Ami Thumbs Up


Here we go again. First chase on the BMW. Order now moved to June.

No news on the Defender (even though requested at the same time).

No news yet on my order. Dealership stated “ still end of March”. I suspect it will be the same response up to the end of March when it will change to September Evil or Very Mad

Maybe I should have let the Grenadier order stay a little longer. Ironically I may have seen that car arrive first, shame it’s cancelled and refunded now though.

Good news. Ours is back to week 16 but I have been advised it will be in the UK then (not production) so should have this for end of April / beginning of May.

Defender still has no build date

Mine has been built and due to arrive in dealership week 9 ( maybe next week). I still have thoughts about the Grenadier though, ….. still no sign of those being produced soon..

I'm looking at a XC70 D5 once the Defender arrives and then goes.

On its way across the Atlantic....

Exciting update for you; your car has now been built and is currently in transit from Charleston, Carolina to Bremerhaven. From there it will make it's final sea crossing to us!

LR update today....

Nothing yet still I’m afraid, and no indication. Production issues and minimal build slot allocation v orders in the bank is still meaning lengthy delivery timescales.

Glad we ordered the BMW back at the end of October.

Picked my car up last Tuesday and I ordered at the end of October last year…. Only thing missing is apple CarPlay and that will be added in a month or so via OTA updates.

I still don’t have any news on a Grenadier order. Last update was “ orders open in Q2 2022.

Just discovered a downside to “active aero” grills…..when they become “inactive” due to deer/car interface, it’s a lot more expensive and complicated than just a new clip-in grill Censored
