There’s usually a “finance contribution” (part from the dealer, part from LR) and a dealer discount on top.
If these figures are the finance contribution only, with dealer discount to be had on top, then this is more than normal.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
2022 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200 & sidecar!

@ Pelyma:
I don’t know about the RRS, but LR seem to be struggling to meet FFRR orders as it is, so have no need to discount further. It’s not necessarily because of high demand, but LR seem to have completely up their production - sadly, delivery delay stories are becoming legendary on 18MY cars 2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2

Same is true of the RRS, hard to get get a car now before the new emissions versions ship.
Lot#s of discussion about this over on the RRS forum.

They are usually advertised as a total which is a combination of LR & dealer. I use them as a starting point in negs.

JLR lost 44% of sales in Germany for LR and 20% for Jaguar.
They will try to even out the sales in other, more willing markets..

I don't know how to get it bigger, so the detail enlarged..

We already know that the EU and UK are negative markets for JLR ...but then this is pretty much reflected in all manufacturers with a heavy diesel bias in their engine range.

Rather surprising to see Tesla down 46% on that chart but perhaps that's just due to their high price point in a wobbly market.Stu

Dan_NL,
It is a double whammy for JLR with lower sales and new emissions tests.
The new tests are the reason behind the discounts. The UK is not offering any grace period.

Tesla are a troubled manufacturer, they are struggling to get the Model 3 out to customers. Production is nowhere near what Musk said it would be by this stage and this is before UK deliveries start, yet he announces new models which takes the attention away from the troubled Model 3.23.5MY Defender 90 X-Dynamic SE D250 MHEV Pangea Green

Really? I think anything less that euro6 will be banned by 2022 and then the progressive screw will be turned further unless a more significant healthy diesel can be produced...isn't Bosch doing something to rid them of NoX?
