Difference Between MY12 and MY13 Pure - Tony's7 - 04-01-2013 05:52pm
Chance of buying either brand new, both with the same spec Tech pack, privacy etc, except colour (MY12 Fuji).
Firstly what's the difference (I know about the grill) and what sort of discount should I expect on the MY12 model?

Land Rover centre caps on the wheels rather the Range Rover and other than the grill, which you know about, there's nothing much.

Why have they changed the wheel centre caps? I want the Range Rover ones.

Changed the centre caps when I got the 20" wheels and will probably change the grill, prefer the look with the LR badge.

The Evoque was the first of Land Rovers attempts to create a brand split, but according to a LR "survey" most Range Rover owners were proud of the LR heritage so Range Rovers now retain the Land Rover badge.
Just a bit of boring trivia, it was the 1989MY before the LR badge was featured on a Range Rover and has been there ever since.

So is that what they were doing with the Totem poles outside the dealer with Range Rover underneath the Land Rover Oval? If that is the case then what a waste of money!

MY13 has updated nav software......With the new software you can enter custom POI's

Valeter, the rebrand was one if those things that smart, highly educated, highly paid ad men tell companies that they need, so regardless of the cost they instructed the dealers to change the corporate image.............. Then the buyers came back and told the company "we liked it how it was" and the market research and ad men laughed all the way to the bank.

I know about the land rover/range rover situation but personally I think if you buy into the "luxury/prestige" arm of a company I think there should be a separation.
Don't see many Lexus owners wanting Toyota badges stuck on their pride and joy,same for Infiniti owners with Nissan branding etc.
Now where did I put my Armani jeans so I can stick that Primark label on?
