I've just placed an order on a Defender 90 First Edition (have a few weeks to finalise the spec).
Couple of questions on the mandatory options:
  • Has anyone got the front jump seat? What's it like to live with?
  • Anyone have the folding roof? Again, thoughts?
I'm not against either option, but my preference would be a pano roof and console/armrest. Dealer suggests the combo of front jump seat & folding roof are more weighted to the traditional 90 market?

Sod what the dealer says, get what you want... It'll be YOUR car, bought with YOUR money, so get the options YOU want.

I agree on that, spec'ing up a similar car is noticeably more expensive though.

Again, not against those options in theory, just wondering if anyone has lived with them yet?

The 90 isn’t out yet.

Jump seat is available on the 110 but not really seen anyone take it yet.
Fabric roof has only been announced for the 110 so no one will have that yet.

You’ll either have to wait, or be the first and let others know.

Good to know, I think I'll take one for the team with those options and see how they turn out!

Order has been placed with provisional delivery March 1st
