Whats your immediate reaction to its improvements over the D3?
Immediate reaction was wallet shock followed by joy at the smoothness of it all. Infotainment on the MY13 is great, the interior is lovely but I wish they hadn’t changed the lower console from the D3 design. Going to miss the old TR layout and the little storage spaces.

Yep, Santa was very late despite prompting from Liam and the dealer.

What did you think of the wheels in the flesh after ?
They do look much better in the flesh so not recoiling like I did when I saw the pictures, but not my favourite design.

My god that is gorgeous and I'm well jealous! BUT! Why on earth would a dealer let a car that expensive leave his forecourt with a wonky bonnet? Oh well, easily fixed, best be doing a few hours overtime, something like 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and in ten years time maybe I can buy one! You guys are gonna be busier than a test bench in a plunger factory!

For crying out loud! There are some right whingers in this country. Okaaay, if it bothers you that much I'll come and shift it for you........as a favour! I came home once and someone had plonked my emptied wheelie bin smack bang in the middle of my drive so I do know what you're feeling. It's no different to Big Mac wrappers, people drop them everywhere, same with brand-new LR D4s I suppose

I take back what I said about the wheels... think they look good on that colour.
Also, 62 Megahertz, something to do with your job? I know some nerdie sound engineers who'd pay for that plate!!!

Megahertz may have a relevance to my job (military aircrew) so could not believe it when I spied it on the dealer allocation list.
In my current post I have to play at engineer too so my engineering brethren will have a wry smile when they see it.
Another blue 62 MHZ for the nerds:
