Corporate program gives you free scheduled servicing for 3 years, free mats and loan car. Also you may be able to access a loaner while you whait for the new one to arrive.

You need to be working for a company with a turnover > $30m.

At least it used to be so.

I had it and now after 3 years I have to pay for servicing.:( How bloody rude!

Corporate, in 2007, was 3 years servicing costs (ex things like brake pads, etc) and a set of mats.

I never paid for the loan car at service time but I don't know if this was part of the plan or just good service.

At the time I worked for a multinational so all I had to produce was a statement on letter head re the number of company cars they had. Didn't have to be LR. I think the minimum was 50 cars but I could be confused with VW who had a similar rule.

Mmmmm....

December 2008.
Free service for 3 years or was that warranty period ? I think mine was whichever came first.

Free Rubber mats

Loan cars ? nope, only every got when they stuffed up and it went over a day or a callback.

I Just presented my "contractor ID card" for a rather large au/nz corporation which has NO expiry on it. Funny it was even for a different state, yet they accepted it without any covering letter or any other documentation.

Maybe all of us small business proprietors should be forming an association... maybe with even an "official members ID cards" just so the obtaining of these corporate type discounts can be easily obtained.

Actually I wonder why AMEX and others haven't already done it ?

Yep thats what I got. I think you need to show that you are elegible for what in the car sales industry as "National Fleet" You have to be able to prove (through a letter from your employer) that the company you work for provides cars or car allowances for a certain number of employees, it is a reasonably large number I think.

I just happened to provide a business card from the large organisation I work for when I wanted to leave some contact details. That's when they told me about the corporate program. It's as outlined above but all I needed was the business card. Its not well advertised.

I was told by the ldr salesperson all I needed was my business card.

Benefits were free servicing, cheaper onroads and a slight difference in vehicle price.

Three years free servicing was the deal I got - having read some of the other replys, it seems as if there may be some slight variability - price was wrapped up as part of a deal at end of financial year/ pre-D4 release, I paid for the mats and cargo mat.

May depend on the dealer (in my case Austral Motors, Brisbane) - they have a published list of all companies that qualify - there's quite a few! I gave them a copy of my employment contract which was also a condition of financing.

Cheers!

I qualified for the corporate program and I work for the ACT Government. I guess they are a large organisation with a budget greater than 30 million!

It's a pity LR-Australia aren't a bit more obliging with us small business owners with only one or two employees. I can't see the difference to them with paperwork in dealing with many small business owners, as opposed to many employees from one company - each sale is a separate transaction.

So if there are any LR execs tuning into this thread - come on give small business a shot too! After all there's probably quite a few tradies out there promoting your product day in day out going to client sites!

In my opinion if you've got an ABN then you're "corporate".
