2015MY Spare Wheel

Whilst perusing the very latest Discovery brochure from JLR, I had a look at the spare wheel options.

It seems that the full sized spare is no longer an option and instead the option is for a 'Temporary durable reduced section spare tyre (0291R)'

Does this mean my D4 will come with a full sized spare as standard or will it have nothing at all?

I guess if it comes with nothing - LR cannot be criticised for fitting a wheel which is easily stolen.... Phil

Indeed - if there was an option to order a full sized spare....

The only option to order is a skinny space-saver at Â£185.

So...... my question is - what do you get if you leave it to them, full-size spare or just nothing and a gap where a wheel could go? Phil

Ah - so the website gives you the option to buy a full sized wheel for Â£185 or you can buy a skinny for the same price if you take the brochure as gospel?

I think a question needs to be asked of the dealer pretty sharpish!

Thanks Marco! Phil

I think you will find the D4 comes with a durable spare as they call it , the full size is the option

I see what you mean with the MY15 brochure. MY14 and before was always skinny as standard and full size as a reasonably priced option. Could be a brochure error as it's quite common - MY14 listed TPMS as both standard fit and as a cost option! 2014MY Discovery

Having looked further at the brochure it lists the skinny as standard and as a cost option depending on where you look. I suspect that the cost option one just has the wrong descriptor and should read as a full sized upgrade price. Dealer will know. 2014MY Discovery

I picked my MY15 three weeks ago. I had specified a full size spare for Â£185 and that's what I got. No need to worry methinks
