ordered mine last Friday. Izmir silver hse with almond/nutmeg trim.Optional extras: full size spare wheel, heated steering wheel, surround cameras, rear air con & adaptive lights. I am undecided on the adaptive light due to the cost. On my 04 hse they were £300 extra, & on subsequent hse standard but on the D4 hse now they are £973 extra, which seems a bit steep, so I've got til Monday am to decide whether they are worth it.

 Full size spare & adaptive lights are not standard on an HSE? That explains the relatively low increase in cost. Keep the book price similar but lower the spec. 
I do find the adaptive lights useful on unlit country lanes, but £973 seems a bit steep!

The price lists for the adaptive upgrade on a vehicle already fitted with Xenons is wrong. If you order an HSE with adaptives, the additional cost should be £255.32 plus the dreaded VAT.

the swizz that Discovery 3/4 pricing now is....
Only two years ago adaptive lights & rear air con were standard...
these two features alone ar possibly the most important as they are used daily & make a heck of a lot of difference
If Land Rover want to sell more they ought look at their pricing structures on HSE models
HSE = more money....then it ought to mean fully featured BREXIT - done properly.
Right now ...We need Government - not Politics
Save the Dipstick Flagbearer-keep it simple, less likely to fail campaign-agenda items:Starting Handles, Acetylene Lamps.

D3 HSE-perfectly formed, passenger friendly...has real DIPSTICK
Jag XK-but sadly no DIPSTICK...HUGE design fault
FL2 has DIPSTICK..."real comfort in rear seats"
VW Golf wondermobile (?)..has real DIPSTICK
Morris Minor..original DIPSTICK technology..and a real KEY.

That's correct. No rear aircon - it isn't even on the price list.
