Firstly this will be my 100 post on the forum so far and I have really enjoyed the relaxed friendly atmosphere that everyone has contributed to. This is compared to some other car forums I have been on in my past car history, were it can end up with some very nasty comments about your style of car etc!
I have been really looking forward and excited about the RRE since the LRX concept and finally place a deposit March of this year for a PURE. I can't say the dealer service has been that great compared to the usual german car company I am use to, but I loved the car and I really wanted a RR.
But over the past few weeks I have started to wondering if I am making a big mistake, firstly the dealer open night was very poor compared to some of the events that have been described on here by other members up and down the country, a few drinks 3 cars to view and that was your lot. No gift bag, driving day etc. I didn't feel special given that they have had £2k of my money since March. Secondly the issues over delayed delivery times is a concern, and thirdly if the issue regarding Xenons now being removed from PURE orders becomes reality then I just think I should have gone somewhere else with my money. This was my first time dealing with the LR brand and I must say I am just starting to regret it. If LR want to attract a new type of person to the brand and then retain them, they seriously need to up there game plan. The customer demands more now and expects.
I think the other issue is the quality, I have read a number of posts were people have criticised the leather and door cards in the Pure, is this becoming a poor mans Evoque, I hope not???
Maybe I am just having a bit of a down period, but I am seriously considering what to do next.
