2 ways to get the upgrade ...
1.after you buy the ticket on Delta 1 LAS to LHR call SMS and have them break the flight into LAS-JFK and JFK-LHR one will have upgrade requested the 2nd will not...you will also earn 2 segments
or
2. at the upgrade window say 6 days out if the flight shows upgrade available
call and have them do a V class override...they will still break the flight into 2 segments
be positive and polite...it can be done
You're among the fortunate. We've had plenty of reports here from people who've asked very nicely and had agents who couldn't/wouldn't do that.
