Anyone heard anything about their due date- my dealer tells me no plans by Land Rover? But I'm sure there was mention of them on here?
He did send me a few pictures of a conversion they are getting done...
Tempting or shall I buy something completely different! MY14 post man pat van
70series land cruiser
1947 willys jeep
Hobby 670 motor home
And lots of other stuff in my shed, on my driveway or abandoned in the village
Several VW T5's
Mitsubishi outlander
And a Suzuki X90... Only drive that at night

That was my thread earlier this year (amongst others I'm sure).
My stealer (Cumbria) took an order from me back In Jan/Feb 2017 convinced this would happen (no deposit paid mind you). Having spoken to him (albeit only via email) a few weeks ago he was a little more vague 
He says wait for late August release of 2018 models and price list. That will be the acid test of what's on for next year. Now I'm not sure at all.
Been looking at building a VW T6 Kombi and just run that for a few years (then convert it to a camper later on). Maybe. They are not cheap either though.
All seems a bit hit and miss depending on who you talk to. "Track day running - Don't put your foot back on the accelerator until your absolutely sure you don't have to take it off again"

Same idea regarding a T6 had crossed my mind tbh, but it's a expensive van! MY14 post man pat van
