HSE SDV6 ordered

Being risk averse and in view of the oil dilution issues with TDV6 engines reported extensively by members here and on the other Forum, I've been holding off placing an order until now. Finally, placed an order at my local JLR dealer Grange, Swindon, Wiltshire last Friday 25th. Impressive new JLR dealership opened some six months ago.

Following spec:

Corris Grey
Light Oyster/Espresso Windsor Leather etc
Black Exterior Pack
20" 10 Split -Spoke Style 1011 Alloys
Privacy Glass
Electric Sunroof
Technology Plus Pack
Driver Assist Pack
Secure Tracker
Terrain Response 2
Heated Steering Wheel
Centre Console Cool Box
Cabin Air Ionisation

Have been advised my new car may arrive in March, but I have my doubts. Given the recent JLR announcements about additional shut-down due to Brexit (8 - 12 April plus 15 - 23 for the usual planned Easter maintenance), I think delivery is unlikely to be before May.

I guess patience is a virtue but if anybody has any recent experience or intelligence I'd be pleased to hear from you.

You don't say what engine you have gone for. Or does the risk averse suggest the 2 litre.

Incidentally, the SDV6 replaces the troublesome TDV6. Reported elsewhere on this Forum.
