So after waiting what seems like an eternity, though a lot less than some of you on here, my car is being built tomorrow! Ive been invited to go up to the factory in Solihull to watch my very car taking shape, if I find the guys installing the fuel tank I will promptly beat them over the head with said baffle-less tank don't worry!

Im not sure if I should be excited or nervous

My Order:

16MY 3.0L SDV6 Autobiography Dynamic in Corris Grey with Santorini Roof
Ebony / Ivory Interior
Ebony Alton Headlining
Privacy Glass
Auto Dimming Door Mirrors
21" Style 507 Diamond Turned Alloys
Digital TV
Dual View
Tow bar with 13 pin electrics
Additional Washer Bottle (No Brainer!)
Fixed Pano Roof
Full Size Spare
Piano Black Trim (Scratchgate...sigh)
Remote Park Heating
Soft Close Doors
Surround Camera System
60/40 Split Rear seats with load through (Thanks to the post on here!!)

Think thats everything!

I'd be worried that it was a Friday afternoon car if it wasn't for the fact we all know LR are capable of making a lemon any day of the week

You will enjoy the factory visit and if you get out early enough the trip over the LRE on the site will open your eyes as to what the car is capable of too. Make sure that you keep you wallet firmly in a pocket and lock up your credit cards when you get to the Land Rover Gear shop too................... 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Good luck! Would be great if you get to see your car. I didn't see mine even though I visited the same day that I was informed it would be built. The tour guide said unless you know the exact time when yours will be on the line, it won't be possible. Wasn't too disappointed because I was told at the time of booking that it may not happen so was prepared. It turned out mine went on the line the following week so there was never any chance. It was a very informative tour but didn't cover QC except "... after this the cars are taken for 'stringent' quality checks as we take quality control very 'seriously'. Cars are brought back here when even a minor issue is found" ( ). Not the exact words but it was along those lines. Current: Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription Pro PHEV with some optionals on top
Gone: MY16 RRS2 3.0 SDV6 Autobiography Dynamic, Carpathian Grey & Santorini Black Sliding Pano/Ebony & Ivory 2 Tone
Gone: MY13 RRS 3.0 SDV6 HSE Black Edition, Orkney Grey/Ivory
Gone: MY09 RRS 2.7 TDV6 HSE, Santorini Black/Almond

Yeh I have my doubts that ill be able to actually see my car on the production line but like you say it should be a good few hours seeing the factory and everything going on! I might ask to see the QC department fkarim sounds great!

Ive got a LRE in Eastnor Castle coming up which I've done before when I got my current MY12, it was one of the best days I've experienced seeing exactly what the cars are capable of doing Tim! Ive got 3 cable ties around my wallet, considering adding a fourth!

Ok my bad... its actually 13 pin.... its been a long day!

Enjoy. At least three months until mine is even built.  Arrived: MY16 A/B SDV6 in Aruba, Ivory interior, piano black trim, black panoramic roof, spare wheel, blind spot monitoring, mudlaps and more...
