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!

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....

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?

I just added the Tech Pack - why not!!

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?
