Special Vehicle Launch (the hard way home)

More interesting would be the reason, they are probably looking for someone special for the purpose of marketing. ;-)

I have also expressed my interest - but did not think that the ride could be seriously affect the vehicle massively, as none of us could really experience the car before.


However, it creates confidence that the first deliveries are expected in November after all.
 
What they want is that there appear 'real user' videos on youtube soon.

With a professional camera team and a likely carefree driving which is backed by recovery equipment and a repair service, this can only yield good videos - in particular with participants which are people 'like you and me'.

And if they look good, this is an extra bonus.
 
The terrain has not to be 50 cm of mud, with some rock crawling between. I belive there are quite a lot nice starting points in Eastern Europe for example.
They invite six people to UK. So they will pick the three that are hopefully capable of driving the car. And of course they have to be extremley goodlooking...

Did not register, will not meet the requirement. Just good looking for my age, but not extremely. 😂
 
That's why you'll be invited before to join a training in UK. 😉
 
I would sign up in a heartbeat, if offered the chance. Alas, I’m in the US where we look to be among the last to see sales and deliveries. Hope you sign up and good luck!
I think there's at least an inkling of a thought that you will get your own version when sales start there. 🤞
 
Anyone receive confirmation email after applying?
 
No, but I tried to add something with a second log in. It was not possible to save probably because the order number has already been in the system.
 
I've entered, but I'm in France for the dates in September, so I'd be astonished if selected! Order number has to be entered as numbers only, (strip off the zeros). The website portal suggested I'd created a valid entry.
 
So what is everbodys guess where the "First Owners Trophy" will start?

I could imagine:

1.) Carpathians
2.) Pyrenees
3.) Northern Macedonia

There is a similarity to what JLR did with the recent Defender Works Trophy Experience at Eastnor Castle.

Maybe there's a future option to collect your vehicle at an Ambassador site with a similar experience?

Signed up immediately. I have an October build slot and am in UK. Retired and absolutely no reason to say if only.....
Ordered the Fieldmaster without a test drive is madness enough, so why not be totally classed as insane

Most of us here would rate you insane if you wouldn’t sign up…
 
I am sure there will be an element of vetting on how photogenic candidates are during the September suitability sessions.

in any case it’s good to see they want real owners and not celebrity buyers who had never heard of a an IG before their agent rang them.

I honestly wonder what the vehicles on the suitability days will be. Late prototype IG’s or will prospective candidates turn up to find they are driving Toyota Hilux or Landcruisers.
