Extend your LR warranty with LR - assuming that the mileage is less than 100k. Whilst the WD warranties are good, the LR warranty also provides MOT cover. This means that provided you get your MOT done before the service then any items on which it fails are covered - this has (for me) included suspension items, brake callipers etc.

Ok... its done. New Loire Blue (OMG first non-black car in 13 years!) D4 commerical with heated steering wheel, heated electric seats, power fold mirrors, cameras etc etc will arrive for March the 1st collection. All very exciting.
Dad still waiting to confirm his Graphite D4 but I expect it will be also for March 1st collection.
So, if anyone is looking for an old new commercial, Hovis will be available at Lloyd Carlisle. Fab car- and now all fixed!
Ohhhh naming ceremony for the new one... Well, we've had Evil, Evil II, George I, George II, Mildred, Lloyd, Eva, Hovis, Warburton and now...................................................

Glad you liked that suggestion, thought it kept in with the bread theme.
Maybe we should have a NE meet & 'toast' the arrival. Anna just ordered a Graphite (Corris) today, she's getting giddy alreadyPaul.

I think you call that decision making 'blue sky thinking' .

I've provisionally ordered a Loire Blue new commercial for delivery on March 1st.
Have put just about every extra in the brochure on it too.
Guess I'll confirm it tomorrow.
My Dad is treating himself to a new Graphite.
Did you get an existing build slot?
I ordered mine in November, expected delivery on Monday but was told 2 weeks ago that there's a 6 week delay on Commercials...

Yeah- no problem. All sorted in 2 weeks. Dealer had a slot and I just added a few bits n bobs.
Stratstone in Newcastle had 2 standard commercial vehicles but I fancied a few extras and prefer Lloyd Carlisle . Good luck! I love mine.

Dad is super please with his LR. He was a Mitsubishi fan through and through- they have been fantastic workhorses for us (he has had 5 shoguns in 20 years). However, having driven Hovis (my last d4 commercial) he was really impressed. So change was inevitable.
Since Mum died, things have been horrible. Really horrible. On Tuesday, it was the first time that Dad has enjoyed something...
