Xenon delays

It looks like it is just new orders that will be effected by the change.

Ive checked parts stock a couple of days ago and i could order 10 sets of zenons and 10 sets of adaptive zenons no problem from my LR parts.

The LR Website to build your Evoque, (Pure) is still listing Xenons @ £710.00 and Adaptive HID @ £1015.00 just checked 5 mns ago.

Strangely, my dealer has said that LR aren't yet in a position to tell anyone whether they will be safe from losing Xenons on the Pure - this is an e mail he received only yesterday from LR:

[b]The information we received yesterday reads -

"Please be aware that any existing PURE orders which include either option
may have the option removed. A further communication relating to existing
orders will be issued once the effect on the Range Rover order bank is
known."

Dealer commented: Basically, once Land Rover know which orders will be changed they will let
us know and I can then let you know.[/b]

So I'm still non the wiser, my delivery date is also November 17.

Hi,
My gut feeling is that any 'Pure' ordered stating 'Xenons' and also 'Pure' orders, with the lowest profit build, (in £,value) will be picked on first. I do hope not..

I've already told my dealer that if Xenons have to to be taken off from a vehicle which was specced as long ago as March then he can cancel the order - someone in LR needs shooting with s***

I have also said the same.

Hi Pete, out of interest how much are a pair of xenons? is it a complete unit or would any other items be required to do an "upgrade"?

Thanks!

I spoke to my dealer yesterday. Vista (which displays all orders, build slots and delivery dates) is being updated this weekend to include amended orders and new build slots. I assume xenons on pures might be removed, although this will all be clear once vista has updated. All reassurances from dealers regarding orders being unchanged is BS; they won't know or be able confirm until vista has been updated(with or without xenons)

Maybe James from Lookers can update us over the weekend - surely cars which have been ordered more than 6 months ago should not be affected - if they are I'm definitely looking elswhere
