Thread: Won’t be retro...

Lots of people dont care (and more power to them) but I will wait. Never seen the first year run of any vehicle that wasnt a fair bit more problematic than subsequent years. Cheers

Basically means you get put to the front of the line when ordering starts.

Deposit is subject to pricing and viewing.

Wow! 3k..... that's more than for a RR building slot. Saying that depending dealer-customer relation he will do it for free....m

Haha.."lots of people dont care", what was the point of you posting that after I went to the effort to go to the dealer to find out that info, didn't post that up for my own benefit matey..wow

Yeah, but its refundable so ya can't really loose, dont like price or looks,refund, do like order. I think with all the testing these days, products they release are good to go.
Look at D5, Velar, Evoque, Fpace, Ipace etc.
Good point, I obviously don't have a good dealer-customer relationship haha

One could potentially lose..... i don't want to even consider the scenario as to how, but in the state of things these days it is foreseeable.

True, but highly unlikely.

Im pretty sure the UK and india would bail JLR out should they get into dire financial trouble.

Too big to fail

It was a quick post while I was working. What I meant was lots of people dont care about the fact that the first run can be problematic and purchase anyway (and more power to them). I didnt mean lots of people dont care about the fact that you went and got the info. I can see why you might have read my post that way, but it's not what I meant to say.

Cheers

And from my own experience,not what a mates brothers,uncles,son said,my first D2 was one of the very first shipped into the country.

After that experience,I will never buy the first of any model run ever again.

Later on I bought one of the last D2a,and it was one of the best vehicles I have ever had.
