Order placed
We need a big family vehicle and went for the 4 as it was the only one which could take 3 kids seats across the 2nd row. Also it must be able to tow our twin axle caravan
So this is what we ordered (wife's car) HSE in Fuji white, ebony, silver trim, black option pack, tv, rear entertainment, 13pin tow pack and heated steering wheel.
Delivery sometime in July

And plenty coming Down Under, where LR makes a premium on the sale compared to the UK. Even with sailing time of 2 months, delivery is usually 3 mths.

Don't you Aussies have the wheel on the correct side though?
That suggests you get cars correct for the UK market quicker than the UK market?
Sure do, but we lose a lot of extras that come as standard for you, and pay more for it. The HSE does not come with FBH or heated seats, and costs A$110K (about £85K), although we do get a full sized spare wheel.

Is there really a big market for an FBH or heated seats in upside-down land??Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948
