I just checked the Australia's builder and the 825W doesn't appear to be an option on the Pure. This was an option I wanted to get on mine but couldn't..... looks like we aussies miss out on the listening pleasure

I would like £41,500 minimum privately though I have advertised it for slightly higher than that & they said if I sell privately then so be it!
How did you manage to get back 99.5%?
B = Re the 3 min warning - that is worrying. The last 2 times mine went flat I had no warning at all, just dead!
I sold privately and advertised it for just over what I paid for it. Don't forget that prices have gone up so it was still a small saving over current list and without the waiting list!
I think the thing that worked for me is that it was a "sensible" spec with the big features but not lots of toys so was a £35k car which stood out as being good value.. So it had Auto, Pano roof, Tech Pack, Rear Camera and most importantly was a 5 door.
Look up how much yours would cost specced the same today and see if its gone up from when you bought it.

Looks a good spec. But not sure about the dark body colour with a light contrast roof and then a dark pano roof. For my money. I would have a dark contrast roof with the pano option, but then you would need a lighter body colour to have any contrast.
I always think now, that my Fuji Pure would have been better with a black contrast roof and the existing Pano roof, so that the car is effectively black from the waistline up and white from the waistline down.

Might be good yes please if it is good spec but only if you have time.

When did you sell yours? Been to two dealers in last week and both said new orders would still be for march delivery so waiting times are right down. If it carries on like this they'll either have to divert more cars abroad or dealers may start to offer some discounts...Orangewheels now offering a small discount.
Either way, demand is still strong now as people still looking to buy for the winter, but come march time, with winter over, that may soften. I think dealer being good giving a fixed price for march delivery, and gives 'The Valeter' a free option to sell it privately before change over...

I sold 3 weeks ago. Delivery times vary by dealer allocation. Couple of London dealers I use are both still 5-6 months. I think the dealer offering The Valeter's trade in value has built in a BIG margin so they can't really lose.
If you look at the official LR 'used' cars they're still selling at or in some case above list. Apart from coupe's and manuals which seem to have weaker residuals. My dealer also told me he hasn't had one actual used car or trade in a they have all been sold privately. The only 'used' models have been demonstrators.

Ive decided to get out while the goings good, a flat battery last week and lr assist saying 1 hour, then 2. Then the guy is now on his lunch was the final straw . Before that the lack of space when going out as a family did it.
So in the last week my b,w has gone and i think ive sold the evoque for 39, cost my 42500 u
In march so im happy with that.
Love the look of the car tho!
As for meridian upgrade, very good. Cant tell the difference with the b&o system in the xj im driving at the mo.
