Andrew, I take it by "vogue TDV8" you are talking full fat Range Rover?

That's a pity, I was hoping for an independant evaluation of the TDV8 RRS. Arctic Frost TDV6 SE. Aspen Leather, Cherry Wood, Privacy Glass, PTI, Tow Pack, Mudflaps, Tasmods, a new Fuelflap, a RRSport.co.uk umbrella in the boot & a RRSport.co.uk sticker on the rear glass.

Guys.. i with held my deposit back from williams manchester LR as they had promised delivery in Jan 07, but then told me, sorry you won't be 6th, you'll be 7th, and they still couldn't tell me much about anything.

I then spoke to a broker guy on another forum, who just got a launch full fat RR confirmed for another member, and i thought it may be worth speaking with him, good job i did, he told me the LR dealer had misinformed me, customer vehicles weren't arriving till Feb 07, and if i was no.7 i prob would be looking mid summer earliest.. too close to the M3 delivery for my liking, therefore, im opting to go with him, and pay his small fee and get a dealer launch car in Feb instead of waiting..

Still going through the details with him, but i think this is the best bet for me. TB, do you know anything about the build dates of the RRS TDV8? quite looking forward to getting back into an RRS, broker friends of mine are all saying that the TDV8 is going to be very good news indeed. Customer supply will be held down initially during first 12 months as always.

I am very impressed with the way LR have deployed their extension strategies, keeping the RRS hot for three years on the trot is quite some feat.. even the X5 back in its day wasn't that exclusive and hot for that long!!
