Job done!

Well the deal was done today on this Dynamic SD4



8 months old in Indus Silver with Ebony and Ivory Two Tone Leather
Privacy Glass
Full Size Spare
Clearview Pack

I know I have lost a few toys over the HSE, but I have also gained a few things as well!!

Not seen the car yet, so we are going to the dealer on Saturday to have a demo and inspect the car before signing the papers.

Got to have our plate transferred over so it will be a few weeks before we get her home.

So what have got planned for this one?

Well, I love a new blank Canvas to start on. So the list has started. When she is home, I'll be doing the following :-

Evoque 20" Wheels
Si4 Twin Exit Exhaust
Side Steps
Door bump strip mouldings
DVD System from the current car
Towbar

Then I'll think about what else needs doing as time goes on. Thumbs Up

I will have to get a few pictures of both the Freelanders together once the new one is home. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

You could probably push to get some of the things on your list included - xmas near so people aren't spending/ poor sales so dealers wanting to sell cars Thumbs Up might get the rubbing strips and towbar if you play hard

It doesn't work like that. Trust me, the dealers are not suffering from poor sales.

I tried to do deals on 4 different cars this week and the dealers are just not willing to budge much on price.

I am not PXing my car as I will sell it later one, but I got some cash off, 12 months tax and a tank of fuel. They are not short of customers either. 4 cars I enquirer about were sold within the first three days of being in dealer stock. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather.

Not sure where you got that from, most Dealers are selling everything they can get their hands on at the moment and the wait for a build to order Freelander is up to about 18 weeks and longer for most other models. But if you don't ask then you won't get so always worth pushing to see what the Dealer will do to sweeten the deal especially if you're not trading in!!

I drove another RRS at the weekend without a sunroof and was surprised how light it was without it. Nonetheless, still having it on my order. Thumbs Up

Will you attempt to fit mudflaps onto the the new car?

That's the oddest thing. Not seen the car yet but deal done?

Not bonkers yet lol. I have it in writing that if the car is not up to my standards, then I get my deposit back. I would never commit to completley buy a car without seeing it.

I just had to put a deposit down or I would lose the chance to get it and Saturday was the earliest I could get there.

Don't get me wrong, having the sunroof was really nice as it made the cabin nice and light. I would not have complained if it had one.

But I am sure I'll be fine without!

I will be looking at the mudflap situation! Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

It is going to me in the showroom or work shop under their lights, so this will show up any faults. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........
