I bet they wish they didn't close that Jaguar plant now though there is loads of space in Coventry for a new site but obviously takes time & money!

Hello,

I have a Firenze 5dr SD4 Pure with panoramic roof and Almond leather on order with delivery expected within the next couple of weeks.. I will upload some photos as soon as I get it!

I have some external firenze 5dr pure photos I could e-mail you if you like.

Cheers..

No xenons tho sorry!

My local dealer has just taken delivery of a white Coupe with Almond interior .... and it looks very smart. Probably the ideal compromise between too light and too dark. I must say I thought it looked gorgeous and interesting.

Sorry the photos are a bit blurred ... I was in rather a hurry....

Very nice! I'm quite happy with tht actually!

Trying to see if I can change my colour to a Havana black. Saw it on an Aston Martin and looked gorgeous! Rumor has it Havana black will be available from December which is when mine is suspected to be built.

Also, has anyone see the actual key? What does it look like? Post pics anyone?

G'day Mate!

I ordered the same spec as yours and it costs me S$245,000 (about AUS $189,000 or £122,000) Upgrade from 19' to 20' is S$5,000!

Even at this price you don't get premium service from the AD. Nothing heard from them since confirming my order. No estimate delivery date!

Comparing to UK, AUS is my nearest neighbour. Any idea when you getting yours delivered?

That should translate to low import prices into Oz, but I know import and sales taxes will add quite a bit.

Haven't spec'd your car but it sounds about £27.5k pre-tax, or A$43k.

Edit: I think your date is wildly optimistic. You'll have read about the chaos here with almost everyone seeing delays. Tim will know better but I expect cars take several weeks to reach Oz. I'm on my fifth estimated date. Still, you can dream can't you?

haha! yeah... just got a call saying February now but for safety they're assuming March still mainly cause of the delays etc!

Well that's just it, in terms of AUD, its priced at $65k driveaway!! Almost $20k more than the UK, or, £12k cheaper in the UK!! Could probabaly get a Dynamic/Prestige for the same price there!

I couldn't even add the Style 6 20" alloys or the Tech pack on because it would be way too expensive!

One day... when I have more money....

£122,000??????????FFS!

yeah Singapore is very expensive because of space constraints! Its crazy....!

yet somehow people can still afford it!

My build date, last I heard, was mid December. My car was estimated to arrive mid Feb - beginning March. Somewhere between there.

Change that!

I just added the Tech Pack - why not!!

Hi Mate.. Nice configuration there. I did not go for the Clear view pack. But pretty much else the same apart from little options

I think you'll find Havana Black is able to order from November as I'm now contemplating that instead of Indus Silver.

The configurator likes it.

just talked to my dealer and having put the order in last week.....

I've been told its still in a Pool of orders... and will hopefully get a build date by the end of the week.

Its estimated to be mid December... but... fml, who knows at this rate!

I do hope it gets bumped up to November.. that would be brilliant but... i'm clutching at straws here.
