Why are you telling us... you should be driving it around for at least 3 hours before stopping at a road side cafe to just look at it through the window whilst drinking a refreshing cuppa

Saw you driving over the bridge this afternoon - thought it looked shiny and you were wearing a big grin! 8)
Can't agree about the dealer though - I rang them for a price last month and they still haven't rung me back yet  ( Have ordered one from somewhere else though

Common problem I have found with LR dealers - more often than not sales staff do not return calls/e-mails, - really makes you wonder how some of them survive

That's sad edd. I mentioned it to my salesman this morning, he nearly had a fit. You will usually find it's reception/sales reception not passing on the messages.
They were very good at keeping me updated, gave me the build number and everything, then I saw it when it arrived, before PDI, to make sure I was happy with everything. It was the salesman that told me to take the detachable towbar off the old one rather than order a new one.
Provided with a nice cup of coffee and some Nurofen for my headache.. I've always been looked after there
Sorry I didn't see you, I was a bit engrossed in the car. I was tempted to sleep in it !!
I ordered mine with the park heater remote so nice and toasty inside this morning. Wot's that in Old Money

Heyloft - sorry if I'm cross-posting, but did you spec the full sized spare? (I'm trying to determine whether 19/20" full spares are compatible with the plug in tow bar?) Dealer is claiming not, but I and knowledgeable members of the forum  say otherwise!
Thanks

Hi Eosse,
sorry no, didn't spec the spare, as I had a full size spare and wheel if I needed to use it.
For the life of me I cannot see where/how the detachable tow bar would prevent one being fitted.  Wot's that in Old Money

Thanks Heyloft, sounds as if not many full size spares are being spec'd but I'd hate to run a 3ton car on a spacesaver
I suppose we will soon find out if it fits when you have to attempt to carry your existing full-sized spare in place of the space saver
