So my self-inflicted pain of waiting twelve months from order to collection has moved one stage nearer tonight. Another milestone passed.
Got a call from my dealer asking if I would like to pop along at my convenience and sign off on the order and double check the Vista2 order. So agreed to pop in and have a chat at 5:30pm this afternoon.
Upon arrival received a nice cup of tea and then we went through the Vista2 print out and the dealer's order form line by line. All present and correct! We signed off the documents and then they were photocopied and a set was handed to me for safe keeping.
Vista is showing Lock Down as 17 November, Build Date as w/e 16 December and delivery planned for 20 January 2017. That'll give the dealer a good few weeks to properly PDI it ready for collection on 4 March 2017. Well that's the plan!
Finished off with the dealer showing me the 14 way sports seats on one of their cars and how the lumber and side bolsters adjusted. And then a trip into the compound so they could show me an IRR S Supercharged F-Pace which had just been delivered so I could see my 22" grey/silver turbines in real life and then their new Ammonite S demonstrator which has the configurable mood lighting.
So that was a nice trip out and a good end to my working week.
JLR5 - I have so far resisted the temptation to add anything more to the specification since adding the reclining rear seats!
Best wishes,
Arianne
PS. there's just one thing I am just slightly unsure about and would appreciate folks' help if you have time? 22" turbines or 22" double helix? Wife and Son say turbines and they are a bit cheaper and don't have the black plastic inserts. But I am indecisive. Saw them tonight on the SC and they looked okay but wondered whether the demonstrator with the double helix looked a bit better? Aagh! Help! First world problem, I know!
