thanks to Bodsy & JMC

many thanks to you guys for advice on Commercial disco via Lakeland. Thumbs Up

after much deliberation have placed order for an XS to be commercialised at Lake Land.

it was a tough choice as it mean't getting the 3.0 was an option and the fact it is more fuel efficient and therefore environmentally friendly Wink clearly was the morally correct thing to do!

estimated delivery 12 weeks or so Sad

must thank Mike at Hatfields for his help when discussing factory commercial option. Thumbs Up XC90 T8 R Design Pro

12 weeks gives you time to acquire all those essentials that you might not already have! just to while away the frustration Wink

So with the lakeland "commercialisation" how does it sit with regards to Road Tax?
I'm looking at getting a D4 commercial atm but none of the dealers have any information available on them, or have seen any for that matter.

Many Thanks

Dan

A commercialisation by Lakeland means the vehicle will retain is 'car' classification on the V5 and hence the road tax will remain at the higher level.......... The older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom Smile

why would you need to read the manual when you have the real thing to play and learn from! Very Happy

TBH the cost of road tax wasn't even a consideration when i realised these guys could get me in a 3.0 one! Bow down

I'll let you know if anything is confirmed on paperwork when it comes through. XC90 T8 R Design Pro
