No Stock Of Style 7 Shadow Chrome 20" Wheels.

I asked specifically about this yesterday afternoon, and was told they have had no further updates (beyond the supply problems).

He said that he has allready had to phone a customer & tell them so I asked what that customer's delivery date was & it was 4 days before me - looks like I've blown out = not very amused.

The shadow chrome wheels are back in stock, pick my Dynamic up sat 10th march, dealer told me two weeks ago the the shadows were out of stock and would have to have the style 6. Rang Halewood yesterday and the said they where in stock so they sent them today to the dealer, the dealer didnt even know they where back in stock, how bad is that! im happy though.:

Got an email today from my dealer to say that my order has been completed with style 17s (style 6 silver sparkle) and is already on the ship here. A bit slack in my opinion.
So they will arrange for them to be painted at their own cost and I won't be able to tell the difference.
Might just have them paint mine gloss black instead as will look great against a Fuji Dynamic

I don't think there will be much demand 2nd hand for Style 6's as most UK cars are supplied with them. I saw a new set with tyres sell on ebay for £500 recently.

I agree... will definitely look brilliant in gloss black.

welcome to the forum by the way another Ausi with an Evoque... soon.

Are Halewood covering the cost of sending the wheels down to your dealer and is your car going to be sold as though the style 7's had been factory fitted or is there some additional cost involved?

I'm due to collect my car on Monday (which had been changed by the factory last minute to style 6) but if there's a chance of getting style 7's fitted to it before I collect then I would be very interested (I wouldn't mind waiting an extra few days). Who would be the best person to call at Halewood?

The wheels were returned from the body shop and are back on the car. We went on Saturday morning to check them out and we're very happy with the results. We couldn't see them alongside real Style 7 wheels as there weren't any Evoques at the dealer wearing these so it was difficult to tell if they are an exact match.

We pick up the car on Saturday 17th, so will get some photos up asap.

Hi does anyone know if the Shadow Chrome style 7 wheels are definitely back in stock and shipping on new orders? My car goes to build on May 18th and although it's been spec'd with style 7s, the dealer says they've been discontinued until further notice.

David-H any pics of your wheels...?

Thanks

Should we ask Nick@LandRover to confirm if the style 7s are out of stock?

I collected 2 weeks ago with style 7's.
The stock issue was only a blip, and is no longer a problem.
