Which one? BuyACar isn't the only one that has, in my opinion and experience, lacked credibility.D4 HSE, Active Rear Diff, surround cameras, adaptive xenons, heated steering wheel, TPMS, remote park heating, centre console cooler box

Row perfect, you may want to get in touch with Carrs Land Rover Truro. Last time I looked they had a Orkney grey fully loaded MY12 sat in the show room.
Might still be there if you are interested.
I noticed that the other day... didn't know it was possible to get that many options onto one car!

row_perfect the broker is Pro-Cars.
Looks like I will be putting the winter tyres on the D3 soon at this rate.
Thankfully I didn't sell them when I ordered the D4 . Also spent loads on suspension front and back and rear discs etc so if no show it's not so bad ( I am trying to tell myself ).
I see I ordered the same colour and interior as you !

Ok, they aren't one I had dealings with. Ironically the one I truly couldn't trust had initials B.S.D4 HSE, Active Rear Diff, surround cameras, adaptive xenons, heated steering wheel, TPMS, remote park heating, centre console cooler box

Struggling sourcing anything today.
I think I'll be spending the evening writing Buyacar reviews online. Seems like they've got skeleton staff on today.

Thank you all for your advice, support and PMs; there a really nice bunch of people that hang out here!
I decided that I couldn't wait another 4-5 months only to be disappointed, so I've opted for a 2nd hand D4 HSE:
Zermatt Silver
20" alloys (blah, but I have MTRs for real use )
Surround cameras
Active rear diff
Adaptive xenons
Heated steering wheel
Tyre pressure monitor
Remote park heating
Now I know that spec stinks of ex-LRE, so I phoned them all this am and no-one had a record of the registration. I'll be sure to take a very close look at the chassis and underbody when I pick it up.
Sadly no privacy glass, so I'm after recommendations in the London/Kent region for companies that could fit UV filtering window tints. Also no centre cooler box, but I see from previous posts it can be retrofitted anyway.
If anyone knows anything about LR Inchcape's dealer group's own warranty I'd be very grateful. I've yet to see the paperwork; the salesman assured me that it's equivalent to Land Rover Approved, but I don't trust used car salesmen!
Hopefully, all being well, I will have it on Thursday!D4 HSE, Active Rear Diff, surround cameras, adaptive xenons, heated steering wheel, TPMS, remote park heating, centre console cooler box
