Therefore based on that, depreciation on the RRS would be in the order of somewhere around 40% in the first three years.Quote:

I stand corrected - you guys know your stuff! I no longer believe the figure of 1%-2% more than the current price ($53k otr) for the '07 Defender, as I have ordered mine with 5 wheels (including tyres), 5 doors, windscreen, chassis and an engine. These options will no doubt take it to the $70k figure that we all know is real.
And to think I thought that A/C etc was included in the price - like I said, I'm new to all this!:D
question is would a person with $50,000 want a Freelander ?
If l had $50,000 l wouldn't be wasting it on a new car regardless of make or manufacture
As for buying a new Freelander or 2nd hand RRS, l have to go with Ron and say l wouldn't buy either based on expected maintenance, repair costs.
Rather keep my 1993 Rangie on the road for as long as possible and keep the $50,000 ticking over in the share portfolio
That is a fairly big assumption! Maybe I am not an Average Joe, I certainly hope I am not!!:pQuote:

And his applies to all the model line-up, including the RR.
No, I'm not buying one, I'll resort to the 2nd hand market.
I got the figures from red book, which we all know under values Land Rovers quite significantly, but their figure for a TDV6 RRS is around mid $50s now.Quote:

If starting all over again.....I would be going for the diesel 4 door Wrangler. Sorry guys!
Cannot stand the arrogance of LRA.

I do like my LR's but i too have to admit that this is probably the last one I will buy new. I think I will have to keep my Disco till it falls into a rotting heap cause it is never going to be worth anything.
I do love my old Rangies though. They are much more reliable, I could do all the work myself and they are CHEAP!:D
