I’m going to get the bull bar (which includes all the groundwork for a winch), maybe the warn winch (although might source my own), the roof rack, compressor and extended arches. But I’m told the margin is only about ten percent anyways so we shall see.
I ordered a D300 SE back in November 2020 and delivery estimated mid June this year. No discounts at all but did include 5 year warranty and 5 year service plan.

It shouldn't even have to be discussed.
It should be mandatory....in it's proper sense.
5 year Warranty included but had to negotiate for service plan ( value $2,650 ). Only ordered SE model with quite specific "factory" options I really needed ( not options " I would like " ) - to keep price down. Will fit certain accessories after delivery to keep Stamp duty and LGT lower.
At the time of order salesman really pushed to buy one of the Defenders in stock on the floor ( D240 and a P400 ).

At 50-60% of the BASIC Defender cost it's hard not to consider.
I agree.Quote:

Mitsubishi actually have a 10yr warranty.
Seems even a $400K Porsche has a 3 yr warranty.[bigsad][biggrin]
I recon it shows which manufacturers have the more confidence in their product.
Funny that you should post a link and not read it first???Quote:

When you buy from a dealer, you will have to sign a written document called a "Contract to buy a motor vehicle".
This document will describe the vehicle that the dealer has promised to sell to you and will contain a list of 'conditions', which describe what the buyer can do if there are problems with the contract or delivery.
These conditions are generally identical on every contract. You will find them on the back of the contract and they spell out how the contract deals with things such as:
- Finance requirements
- Delivery date
- Changes in purchase price (for new vehicles)
- Rights to terminate the contract.
The law says you must be given a copy of the contract at the time you sign it.
For the contract to be binding you must sign it and the dealer must advise you (in person, by phone, in writing, by fax or email that the contract has been accepted.
You can withdraw from the contract at any time before you are told by the dealer that the contract has been accepted.
At the moment there is no 'cooling-off' period for vehicle contracts in Western Australia.
If you are unsure about your rights under the contract you should contact our call centre on 1300 304 054.
A contract to buy a vehicle privately does not have to be in writing to be enforceable.
Funny - I read it as Eric was agreeing that it “must be a WA thing” that there is no cooling off period in WA.
