Hi

I will hopefully be taking delivery of a Brand new TDV8 HSE (Java Black, Black leather, prvacy glass, siderails, 20" Alloys) on March 28th.

This has been arranged as a repacement for my TDV6 which had a couple of problems.

I have been told by my dealer that after this and another one they are getting will be the only ones available until June so it sounds as though they are hard to get hold of.

Would anybody be intrested in buying this?.

Cost will obviously be list or very close too. The only thing not making it brand new would be the fact that it would have one owner. I libve in the South East.

I have seen an M5 that I am struggling to resist.

I'm sure the TDV8 will be as good, if a different, proposition!

What is list on that spec? I am tempted with a change but looking for an excuse.... don't know why...

List on a TDV8 HSE is £53,120. Not sure on the price of the siderails, but it's that ballpark.

Forgot to mention that I have also got the 20" Alloys on this. The Side Rail is worth about £500. Privacy glass is also an extra.

It includes a few things that my TDV6 didnt have like:

Dynamic Response
Brembo Brakes
Cooler Box

Please see Range Rover for full spec.

Rubber rear matts and cloth front and rear matts also included.

The car will also be supreguarded this is also worth £500.

I am regretting not having a more imaganitive user name. I'm new to all of this. Great Forum though.

You didn't pay £500 for Superguard Most valeters will do it for £120 or so.

Okay I've been doing some maths on this.

The car is £53,120 list plus £500 for side steps and £350 for privacy glass. The car will also be sure guarded which is worth about £150, although Land Rover charged me alot more than this on the TDV6.

Total value £54,120.

The standrad spec comes with 20" alloys now I think they sarted off having 19". the full spec is finally on the Land Rover web site.
A far as I can make out it is basically same as supercharged but without the sports seats.

I would be willing to let this go for £52,500. This is not an import or anything like that I have a genuine reason why I am doing this. The car if bought close to when I pick it up will be brand new, it will just have me as the owner. I would be intrested to see if anybody has any ideas on how yhis could be avaioded and how \i can sell the car whilst awaiting the registration document.

Based on availability and Land Rover apparment inability to discout. this isnt a bad deal even if I do say so myself.

Just had a call from the dealer. This car is coming in on the 20th March, so I expect to be able to pick up on the 24th.

In addition to all above I have also had Balck and silver badges added all round apart from the steering wheel which I was told cant be done.

You can do a bodge job! Just get one of the wheel centre caps, remove the 'LR' logo. Then drill a small hole in the logo on the steering wheel, put a screw in and just some pliers to lever off the badge. After the badge is removed get the black badge, but some double sided sticky pads on the back and put in place. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
