Default New E-Pace owner

G'day all,

First time Jag owner from Sydney, Australia here - pending delivery of an E-Pace P250 SE in Corris Grey. Ordered back in June and was expecting delivery this weekend, however the ship (Morning Composer) has been expelled from Australian waters by quarantine. It's currently anchored off Bintan Island, Indonesia awaiting fumigation. As luck would have it, we also have another car on the same ship! At this rate we'll be lucky to see them before Feb.

Anyhow, I know it'll be worth the wait. Specs are as follows:

20" 5051 wheels in gloss black
Big brake kit
Black exterior pack
Privacy glass
Ebony leather
Ebony headlining
Meridian sound
Drive pack
14 way heated front seats

So it should look something like the below.

Regards,

Jeremy

Came across a clip of cars being fumigated...no Jags, Ferraries, AMGs or Porsches for Christmas Down Under!

As it's playing in YouTube, select and copy the full path from your browser then paste it in your post.

Anyone buying a new car has almost no choice. We don't make cars here anymore and dealerships have limited stock, usually entry level cars. Regardless of the marque, as soon as you start ticking options, you pretty much have to order a car and wait.

Well the intrepid Morning Composer has finally delivered its cargo.

The cars have made their way from the docks to the processing facility, where they await compliance. Getting close now!
