They all do this now

Another way of boosting profits  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Still hoping for a S2 one day!

New to me. No problem when in for service. SVR 2018 in Santorini Black.

I almost argued and then wondered if I was being tight (been a year since ive been to a dealer other than to buy)...I swear LR pay for the car.

Looks like I'll be paying the fee then!

Seems like a recent change...I hope nothing else has changed, they were a good dealer! Mike

! charges near to me the other doesn't guess where I go.

Having had 2 test drives at these garages had to sign damage waiver, one had £2,500.00 excess the other had £500, guess where I bought my new car from.

I mean its not like they don't make some money out of us

Depends where you go I suppose, my Subaru dealer never asked for a penny, but the LR dealer is part of a huge group they always want £10 admin fee, I changed insurer as they wanted to do the same when getting courtesy cars, my current one changes it over for nowt! MY10 TDV6 SE (debadged ), Santorini Black, Flappy paddles, Privacy Glass, 20" Stormers, Mudflaps!

Gone: a comprehensive list of imprezas and a Merc ML AMG
