In at dealership this morning to finalise the finance. All fairly straightforward but I also had to sign an agreement prohibiting me from exporting or selling the car within 6 months of registration. They are calling it an Initial Disclosure Document and it is also referred to on the vehicle order form. Did question it but apparently has to be done and sales guy said it was to try and prevent newish vehicles getting out of the dealer network and folk making a quick buck on hard to get vehicles.


Doc means nothing. Almost standard these days in small print. I bought 6 Defenders in 2015 and sold 5 all with same wording. Only one call from Lr asking if they could buy them to retail. 1951 80" S1 2.0

Be curious if they apply it to vehicles purchased outright. However I have no issues with signing it.

When I hand over the £60k for my car, I’ll do what I wish with it, but I have no intention of selling.

If it’s on PCP and you decide to pay off the finance before the half way mark of the contract there is often a hefty penalty payment - at least there was with my previous LRs bought on LR Finance which was Black Horse Finance. It’s not a small amount either so that is something to take into account if you have it on finance and want to sell early. Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come

Yeah I know been there too, plan is to utilise the funds currently in premium bonds to fund the xs temporarily and then finance for the x dynamic when it finally arrives.

MSE, I have too especially when LR were offering discount deals tied to finance plans that I’ve settled within the cooling off period after the car has arrived. I did say “often” but I have been hit with a penalty too on several occasions especially with Black Horse contracts Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come

Quick pic of mine, still sitting with all the transport gubbins on it, cannot wait to get it. Think it might be worse actually knowing it is sitting there. Hopefully if there are non digital dash, matrix lights and the like coming through that folks don't want I might get it sooner. Sorry only one pic my phone died on me.

Was it a fair price?

I haven't considered approaching dealers at the moment for stock / cancelled orders as a possible alternative to my unslotted order. Mainly due to the prices being advertised.

I'm happy, not as good as some folk have managed but 4% off and the vehicle physically on site was good enough for me. Worth a try, think it was just extremely fortunate they had just received mine.

Happy days just had a call from the dealer, looking like they have a cancelled order 110 due to land with them mid November which will release mine for me. Going to be a long couple of weeks. Cannot wait!!

Update the 110 that will release mine from the showroom is built and on its way, expected at dealers on 3rd December. Booked in to collect mine on the 5th, just happens to be my birthday.
