If you're talking about Diamond's autoland system that they installed in a DA42, it's just an experimental system that's not in production. It's not certified and thus there's no way to order it on a new aircraft.

There are other DA42s that can fly autonomously, including Aurora Flight Science's Centaur OPM (Optionally-piloted vehicle) that uses robotic arms to work the DA42's flight controls. Also not for certified aircraft.
