Landmark deposit paid Now Collected!
Well feeling pretty sick at mo ,
Just ordered what is I believe one of the last batch of D4 models, apparently new orders are not being taken anymore, so choice is what is in Landrover stock.
So 2 weeks to regret spending so much dosh before Landmark Black Santori with Arabic interior, side steps, tow pack, mudflaps, privacy glass arrives to hopefully put a back on face and replace the empty bank account D4 Landmark MY16 Santorini Black THE LAST

Don't feel sick, celebrate!
You've got one of the last of the D4's Just imagine how you'd have felt if you'd gone in a few days later and they'd sold out 2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4
2017 to date: FFRR SDV8
2023 to date: 2 x FL2 as “second” cars 🙄
2021 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200

Look on the bright side, you're not paying 20% VAT.

Unfortunately full 20 percent VAT paid
Even if still in the Channel Islands the 20 percent potential saving in Guernsey 17 percent Jersey seems to disappear as they seem to have a different price list over there D4 Landmark MY16 Santorini Black THE LAST

Reminds me of a time long ago when I was in the Channel Islands (1994) and was offered a brand new Montpelier Red three door Discovery 1 (revised edition) for less than the UK list price minus the VAT from a St Helier dealer...... I was tempted but got a new Commercial instead when I got home!2016 Discovery 4 Commercial

Well feel a little richer today
Current D4 booked into have brake disks and pads done, but garage assurred me pads had about 5-6 k on them, so no bill there.
Quick trip down to see Steve and his team at Advanced to return the parts ordered only last week, for a quick and speedy refund.
So spent 29k yesterday saved £500 today D4 Landmark MY16 Santorini Black THE LAST
