At Stratstone Doncaster yesterday having a brouse they have a deal for an HSE at £39650 plus the £1000 LR loyalty discount. Seriously thinking about moving up from an S model so am considering it. Its Stratstone stock so will be 2006MY is this a deal that is common at the moment to move 06 stock or just Stratstone getting rid of their vehicles, any thoughts ?

Unless you aren't trading in I would be careful with what they offer you. The buying price does not matter, its the price to change that does. DS3 TDV6 HSE - Silver with Alpaca (old one) Gone
DS3 TDV6 HSE- Silver with Alpaca (new one) Gone
D4 HSE Lux - Montalcino Red Gone
Porsche Cayenne V8 Diesel S

I realise that they will try to claw back at the trade in but if they aren't realistic then I will walk away I'm more than happy to stick with with my present car until the right deal is there

Easy way around that. Just negotiate the very best deal you can on the new one on the basis of being a cash buyer. Then at the eleventh hour, throw in the part exchange and re-commence negotiating. They wont like it, and you can't expect to get anything above Glass's trade price for yours, but at least you will know what deal you are getting rather than a load of bull about an over inflated price for your trade in and then the dealership writing back the whole deal afterwards. Writing back a deal is such an irritating system used by dealerships and is all based around kidology.
Don't get me wrong, they will still try to pull your pants down, but at least you may get out with only having had your belt loosened rather than having to bend over the dealer principles desk.

Watch that £1K thing. If it's the same as the deposit contribution then it has to be with LR finance. The dealer can get you a better APR elsewhere, meaning you pay less in the long run, even without the contribution.
Always like the 11th hour trade-in thing myself - they never like it when you try to play them at their own game
