RE: Courtesy Car from your dealer
We have a for sale section here - if you have purchased a "tide me over banger" that another member might like to take over why not advertise it here?
A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

RE: Courtesy Car from your dealer
I will also likely approach my dealer on this if I dont have anything clear by end of November... I am in Switzerland and have some mountain drives planned in the new year... my current car is on foreign plates and has summer tyres so it will not be much use to me.

Probably working out how many ways there are to arrange the letters "N" and "O"...

RE: Courtesy Car from your dealer
My dealer got back to me saying I can have a courtesy car once my car goes to build. Completely ignoring the fact that my car will be over a month late. Complaint lodged with LR Customer Services, doubt they will do anything about it.

RE: Courtesy Car from your dealer
So..... Despite the internal memo from LR head office, very few are actually getting offered loaner cars. Great!
So LR suggest ways to build back customer confidence, and dealers ignore it. Presumably because they will 'loose' too much money.
I just think this is pretty sickening, and a terrible way to treat customers. Nearly everyone is paying full price for the car, yet dealers are still not satisfied, and make sure they protect maximum coin. Great for business, very poor for customers.

RE: Courtesy Car from your dealer
I expect there's friction between dealers and LR at this latest "initiative" where you can imagine all that talk about being proactive and understanding the customers' needs is being met with synchronised raspberries from the collective sales force.
It would be interesting to be a fly on the wall at those conference calls between dealers and LR.
