The Land Rover car dealer in my area invited us (my wife and me) to a Land Rover experience session in the south of france.

You are lucky. There are no LR Experience centeres over here. The nearest is in Austria abt 1500 Km away.

When I was buying my FL2 (Feb 0 the salesman at the stealers stated I would get a token for a day at the LRE in Perthshire.

You didn't get one because you had already bought the car so didn't need to be persuaded! The dealership has to pay for each person they send to LRE's these days whereas 3 years ago everybody got an invite once they had bought the car. It costs the dealer something like £200 to send you on an LRE 1/2 day course so you can understand why they don't like to offer them out at the moment. If you want to go along to LRE Dunkeld or any of them LRE sites then you can phone and book - I recommend doing the full day rather than the 1/2 day as you get to go places other than the training grounds at the Dunkeld Hilton Hotel - in the 2nd part of the day at Dunkeld you get to play out on the hills round the Atholl Estates land. Check on Disco3.co.uk in the events section because I think they are trying to get enough numbers to run a private day at Dunkeld and it is cheaper than going on the outing by yourself and you get to use your own car under instruction. They need 7 cars to run it at £100 a car - max 12 cars, the event is on 16th November. You can check out the sign up here

Hhmmm, so LR will let their maketing activities be determined by dealer staff who can't be trusted, that makes a ton of sense. I don't have the slightest problem believing that dealer staff would behave this way, that then becomes a discipline issue within the dealership. But I'd be horrified if LR would allow that to be a reason for them to change the way they develop customer realtionships; that would be very short sighted. Your dealer has compounded the situation, and lets himself down, by feeding you this crap line and expecting you to believe it. I really thought that moving to the LR brand I would see a huge increase in cutomer car standards, in my own experience it has not materialsed and reading stories like this confirms that LR have some way to go (IMHO) Sorry, I've just booked my 3rd LRE .... Stornoway Grey GS ... What a fine motor ... but not any more ... ... psst look at my gallery! Company cars ... a thing of the past - May 2013. |

Tell the dealer that he already agreed and if he does not honour that deal you will see him in the small claims court, along with someone from the local paper. You alreay have a verbal contract offering you this - he is in breach of that contract.

I had a free 1/2 day a month or so back but it wasn't arranged by the local dealer. I put my name down on the Land Rover web site and had a letter through about 2 weeks later inviting me to book it. 58 HSE, auto, lago grey, tints. Mine and my dogs Storm and Sky
