Got it! TD4 Pure in orkney grey.

Well collected the car this afternoon, first impressions are great. Manged to fith the dog guard no bother, custom mats fit well. Only downside I got robbed of a months tax by getting it at the end of the months lol. Still thats only about a tenners worth.

Looks great ED, is the Juke yours too? A comparison would be interesting.
BTW you need to change your signature.................

Congratulations Ed your long wait is over. Patience is a virtue as they say. Look forward to seeing your 'road test' report.

Congrats looks great. I picked mine up today but I didn't lose a months tax cos they taxed it for 12 months + 1 week which they can do apparently on new cars so I can't see why they didn't on your car.

the Juke is my partners, Its only a 2wd 1.6 petrol manual. She had ordered a 4wd 1.6 turbo version but the tsunami last year delayed it for ages so the order was changed.

Its a lot smaller than the evoque too, the boot is laughable. The fit and finish of the car is of course not as good as the evoque but due to a hefty discount it cost about £16k less than the evoque too. Toys wise the Juke has loads, full leather, heated seats, nav, bluetooth, reversing camera, usb input, 3 different driving modes etc etc etc and its a right little buzz box, its low geared so always seems eager to rev, this is great on back roads but a bit tiresome on long runs. She manages a steady 40mpg from it so for about 14k new i cannot really fault it.

Not sure what happened with my tax, i did point it out to him but said i couldnt be hassled with arguing over a tenner. The tank was brimmed though as a goodwill gesture from JLR after the delays i have had. I was offered some mats but had already bought some so i said fill the tank instead.

I was given an experience voucher too, but dropped the voucher in the dealers so it will be getting posted out.

I fitted the travall dog guard straight away and for about £100 its superb, piece of cake to fit and really solid. It will be easy to remove too if needed and it still allows full use of the parcel shelf and dropping the seats. I reccomend it and its much chealer than the landrover one.

Looks great ED...and your long wait is now over. Enjoy!

Well I don't know what to say.

Pleased for you at last.
