Thats good to Know Ady, i'll give you a shout and you can barter James@HG down on the cost to change

Unless James has got more bartering tools at his new spot i wouldn't bother him, he couldn't get anywhere near the price of my new motor, when he was at LPR infact the best he could do was offer me one specced up to my requirement they run it for 3 months and put about 5-6000 miles on the clock for £700 more than what i bought mine new. No disrespect to James, i guess their margins are greater than my dealer.

I'll have to bear them in mine too then

Though, at the end of the day, when i bought the last one with James, the spec was what i wanted and the price was right, might have saved some some where else I'll never know, but main thing is if your happy with the deal and i more than was

I get a freebie every time I visit: a fleece(ing). Does that count

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

best ive managed is 1/2 day off road experience (which will be a let down after doing the real full days training course some time ago)

a rubber load liner for the boot and full carpets

£2K off sticker price, but they were already doing that anyway, they realised it was over priced compared to a couple of other cars in the dealer network....low mileage can only bump the price up so much cheers

2008 RRS 4.2 Supercharged HST

Best I managed were a couple of apples and some love heart sweets. I wasn't given them. I took them.

That'll teach them to keep me waiting  Want to do a DIY job on your car? Check out the definitive 'how to' thread in the technical section

Oh. Now its really time to gripe
Having paid £59603 for my Sport in 2007, I went to collect it. Once all the handover crap was completed, I got in car and found 0 miles range and fuel light on. Had bit of a moan and was accompanied to fuel station for tank fill up. All I got from Munters. Sorry typo, Hunters.
When I went to pick up full fat the other day, I got another bloody golfing umbrella proclaiming Land Rover all over it. Oh and another empty tank. Which reminds me I must go hand in receipt to claim the £50 fuel just to get the bloody thing home. Guy Salmon in this case. Ordinarily would accept a secondhand car with no fuel, but having filled Sport the day it returned to garage, I had the proper hump...... Which reminds me I still haven't had me tax disc back......
But I did get a days worth of cokes, double expresso and chewy biscuits, a hand made sandwich and most of the lollies out of fizzy whizzy tin the week before  2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀
TDV8 Sport HSE...... Gone. Loved it but it didn't love me!!
Now rolling in MY10 Fullfat TDV8 Vogue. Slammed it to go round corners🙈
Cruising daily #56 mph in a Volvo V8. 😱
Lots of other toys in the cupboard...😜

Over the years have received the usual umbrellas and flowers

Munters gave me a framed cartoon picture of my FL2 being presented with my name and reg (before they put my cherished plate on so wrong)

LR invited me to Supercharge day with track, road, off-road and 3 course meal in a Marquee

Chauffeur FFRR from NEC car show to Gaydon for off-road and refreshments

In addition to the above I have had some goodwill due to mistakes (read that as incompetence)

1. Jaguar Roofbox and cross bars plus full tank of fuel
2. Premium carpet mats, rubber boot mat plus full tank of fuel
3. Free Service and 2 Years approved warranty with Assist
4. Luxury Hamper
