Friday night, I dinged Mrs H's wing mirror on the Range Rover and had to get replacment glass on Saturday morning. As is my want when in a car show room, I priced up a new RR sport, and asked about PX for mine. We paid circa 28k for it summer 2003 and got offered 11k trade in. So 17k in 2 years!! WTF?. Added to this, the earliest arrival for a sport is march and they wont hold the PX price because in his words, "the depreciation is between 500 and 1000 per month!!". A quick shufty on the land rover web finds a car a year older, with loads more miles and no sat nav selling for 15k. So they pay 11 for mine, spend less than a grand on a service and warranty, (which incidentally, isnt wortrh the paper its printed on as I have already found), put it up for 16-17k and look for close on a 30% bid/offer spread?
I believe all sales folks at LR dealerships are trained in the opening line of
"Stand and deliver!!" :evil:
The moral of all this is of course how justified I am in the tweaks I'm planning for the C4S early next year because it doesnt cost me 9 grand a year :wink:
