I was sent a bulletin by the dealer and that lists the spec and it says panoramic roof

And the US specs folk have posted and the manuals on line have the Term “moonroof” Seems like sunroof is the normal size - a pan is twice the size and opens and the moonroof is twice the size but does not open Not sure really but pan is the word I saw on the spec they released

The word “panoramic” features on the spec I was sent

I may be wrong but I do not think I have seen a vehicle with anything other than a normal sunroof on the videos on YouTube - think for example of the left hand drive German plated one that Top Gear drove

Just to add a little more weirdness my “Toyota Customer Consultant” (which is a really weird title in itself) says it is “an order” and I will be notified when the order moves to the build stage which is expected at some time from a point in July The suggestion seems to be that once you reach...

I managed to find my “order” on the “My Toyota” App and it is there with an entry against the first bullet “Order in Process” Then it apparently moves to “Build in Progress” “Left the Factory” “ In Transit” “At Dealer” Maybe it’s my lawyers mind but an “order” can only be “in process” if it...

With a forum of over a thousand people and 4 blokes from the Uk chatting about Uk issues we might need a WhatsApp group so we don’t distract !! Well apparently I do have a confirmed order - time will tell - this does seem to be a rather odd process

I have asked the question

Mmmm- that is a concern - I have just dealt with one dealer - hope he and his management are trustworthy

That’s weird - why are they asking for different amounts ? I get it’s different in different countries but we are all dealing with UK main dealers Then there is the “launch” “first edition” supposedly coming first and yet people with reservations on invincible versions are being quoted...

I’ve paid £500 and then £1000 and it’s supposed to be ordered - have you been asked for an additional £5000 on top

We are all in the same boat - never bought anything with quite this level of uncertainty - it’s all very odd and I ordered an INEOS Grenadier on the back of a test drive in a pre production vehicle !! Here no scope to even see before it arrives - the various reviews all had it at circa £65k and...

For my L322 Range Rover I fabricated a shelf that allows me to raise my dogs TransK9 travel crate up and store shotguns and other things under it For the Landcruiser I would like something similar - is anyone aware of any companies already offering storage solutions I know. Lot of overlanders...

Maybe meet up when we have the vehicles - withe the 2 colours if FE and an invincible that’s the UK range nailed - were you quoted Oct 24 or later ?

No I paid my additional deposit and got the order forms/receipt last week with a provisional delivery date of “October 2024” So I think I am in place for a First Edition

The models we are getting in UK with the 2.8 diesel engine has 3 rows and so 7 seats but the 3 rd row seems to fold into the floor neatly if slowly on a motor leaving a larger cargo area From the images I have seen the hybrid’s battery occupies a fairly large amount of space and Toyota have...

Excellent - which part of the UK are you in ?

So between us we have the entire range of UK spec FEs covered ! Ie both of them Ian

Looks like I will be joining the LC community - I have a Trail Dust/Sand coloured First Edition in UK spec allocated - have paid my deposit and the build slot shows ETA of vehicle is October 2024 - Ian

Yep it’s possible I will miss out - will update when I hear definitively

#2 I think

Does it have lane assist and all the other bings and bongs - if so how easy is it to disable the system if you want to switch it off ?

Do you have the dimensions of the cargo area rubber liner - I’m looking to get a shelf/table like system for the rear to raise the dog box and create a storage area beneath it - be good to have the floor dimensions from the liner

Ok we will have to have a UK event then at a service station profiling the entire UK memberships vehicles !! Speak next week after we find out what the position is with vehicle allocation and insurance

Thanks Dave Are there many others Brits on here ? OST threads I found seem to be focused on the US/Canada markets and hence the petrol 48V hybrid powered version

Well I’m a lawyer - but arguing about £500 - if no car allocated I would expect to get refunded If I am allocated a vehicle and insurers will cover it want a right to reject on delivery if I drive it and don’t want to proceed or it’s defective (saw the posts on roof dents) but let’s see

So will you buy at around £10k above a sensible price for the vehicle ? Seems the “invincible” spec is almost the same bar a contrast roof smaller wheels on the FE - 20 inch on the Invincible - and some internal badging

Well yes but that seems to be my dealer retrospectively sending a doc that has my deposit marked as non- refundable ! Lovely

Yep - Top Gear in that pretty watchable you tube review (if you ignore the idiot presenter) was saying £65k and I had £70k as my marker price when i saw the US pricing but then I saw that they have set the First Edition at £79,995 which concerns me a little in terms of residuals Ah well - if...

First Edition in Sand with contrast roof is on my order form - apparently next Wed is the day the dealer can process the order Had a new Range Rover on order before I was messed around before the spec stripping and price increases and the insurance market refused to cover Then I was looking...
