Thanks for the info, I have looked on the LR site and think a TDV6 S is prob the best car for me although I would love a low miles SE.
 D3 please Santa

Pete, good to see you made it!

Not got anywhere near servicing mine yet, but reading through some of the other threads, Lakeland LR come up as a good pleace to buy cars - come on guys, are they also good for servicing?

(I know it is a fair trek, but others suggest the combined cost of fuel and servicing is less than the cost in the bigger cities, and you get a nice day out in the country!)

I just had a though for the guys who can afford to buy new. Why dont you order from the same place, buying power and all that. I am sure you could drive a real bargain that way and then anyone buying used could potentially tag along too.
