Hope you enjoy the new Freelander. Glad you are not getting rid of the ZR van, looks great in the photo - is it the 160VVC?

No it is the 1.4 K-Series. At the time I bought the ZR I was also running an MG ZT260-V8 & didn't want to have 2 high insurance premiums!!

However the rest of the spec of the little van was/is better than in the 160 car let alone the 160 van.

Regarding the Freelander, it arrived at the dealer on Tuesday & is now awaiting the pdi & fitting of accessories so I guess I should be collecting later next week.

Here is a picture of it in the dealer prior to PDi & accessories fit! I have gone for the Storm Grey interior which is a 2 tone grey & black.

These wheels are for sale & are in the classifieds.

I am going to the dealer on Thursday 26th to polish it myself (in the showroom) & then I am due to collect on Saturday morning. I will start a fresh thread.
I rang them today to see how they were getting on with the fitting of the accessories & so far they have done the front light pods, front bumper styling cover ( modern style nudge bar lol), front mud flaps, roof rails, chrome fender vents, 19" wheels. I guess tomorrow they will do the side steps & front lamp guards. Once I collect it then on Monday it should be off to my local body shop where they will fit the front & rear bumper bodykit splitters & chrome exhaust finisher & later that day the sign writing goes on.
I am doing various photos of each stage to build a portpholio.

 

[Optimus Prime]

don't forget to post the photos at each stage

No because this one is entitled "Just Ordered" & is an old thread.

How long did it take from order to delivery??

I placed and order for a F2 GS for my wife on 1/10/2009. I have been told that it wont be ready until January. Only option is a 'winter climate pack' with heated front screen.

Steve

That's about the same delivery time as mine. I ordered mid September & collect tomorrow (Saturday).
The dealer handed over a black GS today. It was parked next to mine in the showroom yesterday.
When you say only option, is that the only option you specified or the only option available? cos I did think of getting a GS & totally speccing it right up to try & save money on the HSE but it worked out little difference.
New thread now started for those who have an interest!!
