As a bonus the dealer had ordered Adaptive Xenons rather than just Xenons by mistake
Did you get it today..?
Hope you did and are really enjoying it

Got it Friday at 17:00
Good handover from knowlegable salesman (John Ryan at Williams landrover Manchester). It took about 30 - 40 mins. After that I just wanted to go and drive.
On initial inspection over the weekend I can see no paint defects or trim defects.
The whole car is brilliant as is well worth the wait.
It will take a while for me to adjust to the driving position as I have come from an Audi A5 with quite a low position.
Took my daughter for a spin on some nice country roads near me and she persuaded me to take a rough track off road that she uses when riding her horse. It was brilliant fun although I ended up giving it its first wash on Saturday evening. Flippin 19" style 5 wheels are a bug£er to clean, but worth it.
Getting Tracker fitted this thursday.
Supprisingly the insurance group is 32. My A5 was 25 but a quicker more sporty car. Looks like it might cost me about £150 per year more plus a higher excess because it is a 4x4, go figure.
I'm off now to drive home from Manchester city centre. Never thought I would enjoy that

Great Stuff!!
John was our sales Guy, has been fantastic throughout and spent appx 1 & 3/4 hours with us Saturday of which about an hour was showing us round the car etc. I would recommend him and WIlliams Manchester to anybody!
I too give it a thorough once over before we left it was and is Perfect!!
Those style 5 wheels are great and look fab, will be cleaning her this weekend having just ordered a load of Gtechniq gear today, to go with the shed full of other car cleaners I have acquired over the years! I am a sucker for them!!
I even tried buying some Return To Invoice insurance off them but was told they don't get involved in that type of stuff now, so will try LR Direct.
