Hello

i have found an approved used RRS AB that i like

i have spoken to the dealer and they have asked for £1000 deposit but are now refusing to remove the car from sale incase someone else wants to buy the car

how can this be right ?

Sounds a bit weird. What was the point of the deposit then? Can they tell you? Robin

All the landrovers ive bought they ask for a £500 deposit to hold the car,it is then taken off the website or sometimes it says customer reserved,if it isn't the car you want when you view they have to give you your deposit back. Andy.

They are saying that the deposit is just to hold it for 12 hours i have explained that i need to come and see the car but they want me to agree to buy before seeing

Find another . If there are issues even now, wait until something goes wrong. 2006 2.7 TDV6 HSE in Cairns Blue.

agreed and this is from a main dealer as well really did not expect it

walk away & tell the to off,,their is plent out there for sale. Andy.

i agree walk away not worth the hassle

Tell them you want £1000 from them for wasting your valuable time coming to see it if its not up to your standard
I'm sure they will be understanding
Their arrogance never ceases to amaze me

it makes sense now they offered the car to me at 41,400 which was 1000 less then listed

they have someone there now who has offered 41600

can i complain to JLR ?

Tell the to get stuffed & when they call to say other customer didn't want it offer them 40k & no more,,what year is the car & spec.? Andy.

I have just been on LR site & clicked on reserve this car & this is what it came up with

(You can now reserve this Approved Used Land Rover for 48 hours.)

I think they are trying to pull a fast one on you. Andy.

thanks mate

just told them to forget it

they are just trying to get a sale as the sale man told me the other person was there in the dealership now he has just said if i change my mind to let him know

Having just bought a used approved from Harwoods group I can confirm that you can pay £1000 to hold the car for 3 working days which is fully refundable if you don't like the car or even just decide you can't be arsed to go and look at it.

I paid this as wanted time to find a better finance deal than the dealer offered at 10.9 Apr. Strange how their rate drops when you get offered better elsewhere !

3 years ago when I bought my last RRS this service was only £500. 2017 SVR. SVO Scafell grey Ebony interior

ok thanks buy anything nice ?
