Quote:Most likely going ahead with the RRS, few things I’m not sure about..
Cars on a 5 year service plan, it’s a 66” purchased in 2017 new from LR ( must have been pre reg ). Does this usually mean all services are paid till 2021 ?
How expensive is it to run an RR - road tax, tyres, general consumables? Car has front Brembo calipers, are these better performance than the non painted RR brakes or are they the same but some are painted and other aren’t?
Car has ivory leather and it’s showing some light signs of colour transfer from what looks like denims, is this easily removable?
Are the 2016/17” RRS’s with a good spec and low mileage set to take a hit on prices with the new facelift version?
The service plan would be five years from date of registration so it's that period or 50K miles, whichever is the sooner.
Expensive is a relative term so not easy to quantify but if you get a decent one and look after it then, aside from the known reliability issues that JLR suffer from, it shouldn't too bad; for petrol variant the road tax is £535 per annum, tyres are around £200/250 per corner and other consumables (brake pads, battery etc) I've found to be reasonably priced.
Mine has ivory leather too, I've used a quality leather cleaner in the past and it's worked a treat.
All vehicles take a bit of a hit after a facelift, some more than others. The mid-term changes are not drastic so you'd imagine it wouldn't be too bad but can't say for sure!
