So, after a few weeks with the white beast (which owing to the snow on its arrival has been variously christened 'Snowy' or 'Olaf') I've had a few wrinkles along the way.
As on arrival, the second and third row sunroof blinds won't stay closed (nothing to latch on to), and the OS headlight is misaligned too low so it doesn't light up much at all (and in fog shows a distinct bright spot). Given it's got adaptive, self-levelling headlights I'll let the dealer sort that out.
Then, just two weeks after its arrival, someone has kindly dinged the OSR door
So that'll need some attention. I'm really not very happy about that.
I've also installed a spare wheel security device from Uncle Ray:
And discovered the paint is making a bid for freedom from the NSF wheel:
Which doesn't seem quite right for a vehicle that's just two years old and has just 14k miles on the clock.
I'm also struggling slightly with the dealer in that they have (so far) had two attempts to supply floor mats (rubber) and seat covers (front) for it. First ones were for a Discovery Sport (which I already have and no longer need), and on the second attempt I got non-DVD seat covers when the Landmark has screens in the front head restraints
Also the load space cover had gone AWOL whilst at the dealer, so I'm also awaiting the arrival of one of those for it.
One thing's for certain: Land Rover ownership is never dull... Gordon

Having adjusted both my VW / D3 lights recently I also have this and assume this is norm.
VW Xenons were super high so never saw this "edge" arrangement. Only people flashing coming the other way.

I suspect the wheel will have had a rattle can dusting over to make it look new. All part of the approved used
