Welcome pack

[bh78]

Got the call today asking to confirm my address and the like so that LR could send me a welcome pack.

Can anyone tell me what's in it?

Tried a search to no avail.

Cheers

The LR welcome pack ...
A box of tissues so you can wipe away a tear when the first bird craps on you new car.
A stout pair of boots so you can stamp you foot really hard when the EPB fails to release.
A pillow - for your wife/partner/significant other to put under you head after you faint at the first "stealers" service bill.
An extra "thick skin" to help ward off all the unpleasent/stupid/ignorant comments made by Toyota/Nissan/Jeep drivers.
An "upgrade of credit limit" from the bank of your choice so you can start adding all those little "goodies" - bull bar - winch - lights - etc etc ...$$$$

Naaah just joking - you'll love it regardless of what the stealer gives you in a "welcome pack" ....
cheers :D

The welcome pack should contain a 1 x Phillips head screwdriver, 1 x blade screwdriver, 1 x tube of silastic, 1 x roll of electrical tape and a card with phone number to ring roadside assist

Can't tell you what's in it, therefore it won't be a surprise! :-)
But it is nice. Have used mine many times;-)

Thanks all.

Whilst I don't know if the answers were helpful, I did get a chuckle.

Wait I shall.

Far out - our sales rep couldn't even remember our name! Not even a bunch of flowers!
You must have either played real nice or real hard!

Do we really need one? It's just a bunch of promo gear that ends up on the kitchen bench, shifted to the dining room table, shifted to the office or study.. LR send out a full colour magazine every few months anyway. A Land Rover golf umbrella would have been neat or a big beach towel. HSV sent me a box of stuff after I bought my Maloo earlier this year. I only kept the hat & USB stick, the rest hit the bin.

I think that the welcome pack may vary from dealer to dealer. The one I got from Barbagallo Motors was pretty nice and doesn't sound anything like the one that robocop describes.

Never received one when SDV6 SE was delivered in Nov 11.....guess I did not spend enough.

I never said I received a LR pack. I received a HSV welcome pack. I found HSV customer service to be personal & flawless.

Three different Land Rovers (110 TD5/FL2/D4 SE), three different dealers in two states I didn't receive a welcome pack. But I'm happy with the half yearly magazine.

[stray dingo]

I got a call asking the same thing.
Received a little colour brochure expounding the virtues of LR, and a few places worth visiting.....
Thats all

[Prokiwi]

I was very well treated, My wife got a big bunch of flowers, a bottle of Moe , and a gift basket with chocs and the like. We then got a choice of two gifts from LR Australia which included a mens overnight toilet bag , which is awesome , great quality and perfect for me as i travel every week, and a towel and picnic set for the RRS.

Guess its who you buy off that counts......I used LR on the Gold Coast , I bought my first two off Austral in Bris .....never again .......
Now i drive past Austral to get to the Gold Coast to get my service and extras fitted .....lol if only Austral had someone at the top who cared ...

This is a LR Australia thing not a dealer gift.

The dealer was good, I got a fairly good deal and was therefore happy with a tank of fuel.

Bought a VW in 2009 that came with a "active" fuel light however that's another story.

[PeterOZ]

Steak knives? :D

[pmrobin]

I got the call too, so I am waiting to receive my pack:)Mind you, I got a great deal and a full tank as well so anything extra is a bonus.

Interestingly, I got my Disco from the Sunshine Coast as the Gold Coast couldn't come anywhere near the same deal.

[PeterOZ]

I got mine from sunshine coast dealer as well, way best price at the time.

their service dept while very helpful did not have the experience so transferred service to Brisbane.

Forget exactly what we got but some sort of a hamper. Got a LR picnic rug too

[bh78]

So it's arrived. Usual little book with interesting places to go and a huge coffee table book titled journey of discovery - 8000 miles, 50 days. Nice read.

[pmrobin]

Got mine today as well. Definitely looks like a nice read.:)

Hi All,

Sorry to revive a really old thread, but I recalled reading this thread with interest as I had never received the 'welcome pack'.

I purchased my D4 in Feb 2012 so figured I had missed out on what was a new thing.

However, I got a call today from them to double check an address so that they could send me one - almost a year to the day after purchase!

So, if you did not get one and feel you should have, and want one - maybe give LRA a call.
