Thread: Follow up from dealer after collection?
Post: RE: Follow up from dealer after collection?
No, none.
Mind you, they did make a concerted attempt to overcharge me by £3700, and now they've had their commission.
Not sure how much repeat business they do - certainly there'll be none from me. |

Thread: Real world mpg
Post: RE: Real world mpg
Good news is ... Milder weather with no cold starts boosts my average by 10%, from 33 to 36 mpg (that's for a SD4 auto 5 door, mixed 50/50 town/country). |

Thread: Build quality
Post: RE: Build quality
Bad luck - after 2 500 miles, I can say that the only rattle are on starting, from the SD4 engine - this obviously comes from the engine compartment.
I'd get the dealer to have a good look.

Appalling isn't it?
Why can't we buy the car from the factory, collect from there and save thousands? |

Thread: FUEL CONSUMPTION Si4 / SD4 REAL LIFE NUMBERS
Post: RE: FUEL CONSUMPTION Si4 / SD4 REAL LIFE NUMBERS
Done 1800 miles so far in a SD4 auto (5 door) - so far averaging 32 mpg with 20 mile commutes which are about 1/3 urban, with some longer journeys.
It's still a great car but LR's mileage claims are ... |

Not rude at all - never seen a system where you can't edit and tidy up your previous destinations. There must be a way otherwise you'd end up with hundreds! |

The car's mpg calculation for this tank stands at 31, compared to the 43.5 claimed by LR.

Best quotes I had were from Land Rover and NFU - for market town/rural area - might be worth it to try them. |

Post: RE: Tracker & Insurance!
Caroline it may just be the risk they attribute to your location and where the car will be kept.
You may just be in a higher risk area, particularly if all the insurers give you the same story. |
