Congratulations, hope you enjoy your new purchase.
I think it is very reasonable to ask for a copy of the checklist. Of course you already know though that all the boxes will be ticked and that it won't make a blind bit of difference to the condition of the vehicle

Excellent
My current Landmark was just under a year old when I bought it last March. As it was under warranty and hadn’t even had its first service I didn’t bother with what checks etc. it may or may not have had.2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE
2010 D4 HSE (A bit bling)-GONE
2014 D4 HSE (Almost too bling)-GONE
2015 D4 HSE (A heated what?)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Written Off)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Surely the last!) PD1881 rims-GONE

Checklist was already in folder when I purchased, but as discoteca says will state all checks carried out. Scrutinise the car before leaving would be my advice and have anything noted by sales... 2015MY discovery 4 se tech with factory black pack.
With added
Rse, tv, electric memory seats, rear camera, heated steering wheel,
Headlight dip assist, remote FBH, led door light pack,easy lift kit,osram front fog/drl/active cornering lights. and whatever els I can find to do,

As Gilly1 says thoroughly scrutinize the car first and, if possible, take someone with you. You’ll be too excited and eager to get going so will probably miss something. Better still, take your accountant with you

Having no rear seats the RSE in mine is pretty redundant.

She is wise beyond knowing.
When Dark Bluie suffered a bit of a Christmas tree dash it was Mrs DSL that spotted one of the brake lights was blown and knew that was an issue. Bulb changed, faults cleared and all was well with the world.

Don't know if I should start a new thread on this...............
The RSE comes with the 2 sets of BT headphones (still with plastic wrapping on!) but no remote control and couldn't seem to activate any form of touchscreen??
Should the system be supplied with a RSE remote control unit AS STANDARD?????
Sales guy said it was an option?????
