I am not sure if I should have gone for the SureGuard as some people say you can protect your car for fraction os the cost the dealer charges.
I wanted the interior SureGuarded but not sure of the exterior.
Is Paint Protection worth the money?

Tata own lots of things, including Jaguar Land Rover. All employees of companies owned by Tata can get substantial discounts with Jaguar and Land Rover cars. There are some strings attached and a couple of models are excluded but it is a good scheme.

Ford used to operate a similar scheme (until they started losing loads of money,then they stopped)...a good friend got a phenomenal deal on a Disco HSE when they first came out (his brother-in-law worked for Ford)....not sure what the list price back then was,but for some reason 28k rings a bell "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool,than to speak out and remove all doubt" ?.....what rubbish...

Same as the rest of the Tata group. For us it was about £11k off list price of a D4 HSE.Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948

^^^^^ Robbie.....If TATA offered a similar employee scheme to Mercedes,just how far does "friends and family" extend....... "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool,than to speak out and remove all doubt" ?.....what rubbish...

Tata limit it to 1 car only and stipulate a minimum of 12 months ownership. We are just stepping into this for the first time (clearly, or we would have used it years ago!!) but most seem to swap at the 12 month point where the difference between trade-in and the discount price is negligible.
We will see if that works out for us in 12 months. Already thinking about the spec of the next one!Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948
