“increased costs more than 10 fold” - source? I don’t believe that for a second.
There's the factory at Nitra £1.5 billion, recruitment & training of the new labour force (and housin ... |

So LR well on their way to 100,000 defenders per year then
That's one way to spin 45,000 sales over 13 months... but it isn't really very convincing...
The thing about a run rate is that unless ... |

| That’s very odd Birdy. I spoke to two dealers before ordering and both had allocation available to order. It took a little while to confirm the build date but it is definitely ordered so not sure wh ... |

Morning all
So I now have my dates confirmed on Vista. I ordered beginning of March, so it’s taken a few weeks to get the order confirmed.
Vista states build is end of June for delivery to de ... |

| It does look like a great car, but at £145k it also just feels a bit toppy to me...it’s now firmly in the twilight of its life, with a completely new model replacing it in just a few months. If the ... |

Oh sorry, should have been clearer but that post ran on somewhat!
No, I meant the real RRS SVR. I had a look at it again and kept wondering if I should go for that instead. But it’s old where th ... |

| V8 isn’t an SVO car; no suggestion that it is. It is just another version of the standard car with a bigger engine and some upgrades but certainly not enough changes to make it SVO. It’s only the ... |

| Yes, it makes perfect sense, and for the very reason you outline. There are other SVR variants across the JLR model range and while the sales numbers of these are small, collectively they continue to ... |

| Relax, that all sounds about right. Limited number of the V8 as LR don’t want to impact their corporate emissions levels. It’s too expensive for them, and there are only so many Tesla carbon credi ... |

I think perhaps this is missing the point a little.
I wouldn’t buy the tracker unless there was reason to. Yes, a car thief may disable it. Yes, the car may be gone permanently. And yes, the app ... |

Carpathian 90 for me too. Bigger screen and tracker pro.
If you haven’t added the tracker pro, might be worth taking a look at it, or else exploring alternative trackers. The total cost of the LR ... |

| Brilliant. You must be one of the first, and if they’ve started allocating, hopefully the rest of us will soon follow. |

In the words of the dealer “we hope to have a build date in the next few weeks” and “we think delivery will be in August”.
Translation: we haven’t got a clue 🙄 |
