Guy Salmon were shocking, Harwoods were much more accommodating and I believe still trying to negotiate supply with the lease company I currently use.

Think the only style dog guard is the metal ones. I never saw any other type when looking for mine

Hmm, Not good that they don't offer these bits that are standard on so many other manufacturers.

Our Terrier can't get over the seat back, but we have a bonkers Cocker Spaniel (is there any other type) that prefers to ride up front with his "dad" if he has the option. Maybe we can get restraints to clip them in instead.

I really don't want to have to drag that big metal frame in and out of the car.

Can't you just leave the guard in all the time as I do

1 ounce of lead just behind the left ear will normally put a stop to that kind of activity

I move lots of "Stuff" pretty regularly, hence wanting a largish car (seats down on average 3-4 times a week).

My current estate car has the fixed metal job, it's right nuisance stripping it out every time I want to fold the seats down, then having to put it all back in again. It goes a long way to wrecking the versatility of the car.

Ok that explains that then

They do have a door in them that you can put stuff through with seats down.

2005 Range Rover Sport 4.4 V8 HSE Tangiers Orange

We've got a Springer Spaniel that has a habit of not staying where she's put, invested in one of these when she was a pup and I have to say, it's waaaaaaaaaay better than around with a metal cage. Keeps all the mud / sand / grit out of the car as well

http://www.roofbox.co.uk/dog-bag/dogs-pets-carriers-dog-bag.php

Bendy poles mean it folds up into a rucksack sized bag and it weighs nowt. Just chuck it in the boot, it springs up into shape and hey presto, instant dog kennel. Has 4 clips to attach it to the lashing eyes in the boot or can go on the back seat and attach to the seatbelt.

Much better than the dog guard and easy to move about. Ex-G4 Challenge RRS HSE, BV55 YZE. Subtle shade of orange ! Now registered YZE481 G4RRS in Melbourne.

There's a lateral thinking way of solving the problem. The flexi dog kennel looks like a very viable alternative.

LloydsTSB Autolease (which I think is Lex).

I'm going for 3+47 12,000 miles pa and got the following figures:

Lease £678.04 pm
Service £63.71 pm (includes no quibble unlimited tyres, full warranty through year 4, tax & MOT included for full term).

Keeping the car for 4 years makes this far more viable, as I like it I'm happy to do so.

All plus VAT of course as these are business rates.

Thanks for that, I'm surprised the dealers can't do better then as the Range Rover I had through the dealer network a few years back was supplied by Lex leasing under the business partner name. Thats a good price though, the best I had found was over £700.00, so I take it that is also without any options.

That colour your going for looks good in the pics, makes a change from black or grey, but then I like Bali Blue so what do I know!!

There are no options on that, the HSE really does have everything I need/want so no need for other bits.

Harwoods were quite open about the coststings, more interestingly becasue they actually used Black horse/lex autolease/lloydstsb as their finanace for all business leasing. They explained the figures they'd been supplied which were higher than my quote before the dealer margin was added.

At that point they had the finance rep in to explain how individuals get a better deal than the main dealer from the same company.

I've now enquired at 4 dealership all different groups and no one seems to be able to touch this quote.

If the resident tame dealer from Lookers would care to run some numbers I'd be delighted but I'm resonably sure he'll come across the same problem.

I will add though, I was going to order a new Mercedes E350CDi sport estate, but once I'd specced it to the same level as the RRS it was the same money (on contract hire), and I'd prefer the RRS.
