Went for a test drive of P400 today. Delaer quoted 10 month approx wait for car to arrive. Build would be of MY23 spec. But less likely to get a interactive driver display and infotainment screen will be 10inch.
Found this one a bit strange as the price has not gone down if speced featured is not avaliable.
Discount wise will be lucky to get some accessory included.
One thing which the sales person mentioned was service intervals of 24months/34k km.
which I have ignored and gone with 6 monthly oil change and full service every 12 months. I pay for
the additional services as I do not trust the LR recommended interval, especially when you hear of all the
engine failures/issues with the diesel 2 litre engines due to oil dilution.. everyone’s choice, but has we
plan to own the vehicle for many years and it will be touring and towing a fair bit, I plan to stick with
a more regular service schedule
And there is more to a more regular service than changing the oil.....there's an inspection of all the other bits essential for the smooth running of a vehicle that a good service mob will do as a matter of course. Particularly if it is used for its intended purpose and just within its capabilities!

Ex 300Tdi Disco:
Thats good to know as we were told that the oil which is used is very expensive as compared to other cars
Plus the internal parts have some sort of coating which prevents ware and tear. So service every two years as part of service plan.
How much does a yearly service and six monthly oil change cost?
Has anyone experinced any issues so far, reason for asking was lot of online -ve comments on LR service.
One more question how different is the analog/digital driver display as compared to fully digital one. We were told its got similar menu except cannot put full screen map view.
The main dealer in Townsville charged $330 for Oil, Oil filter and Air filter change at 6 months.
I managed to wrangle the first annual service free under the corporate plan, deemed an early service,
not sure what they will charge for the second annual, anything from 800-1200 i suspect
