I just saw a new Jaguar XJ in Taiga Green, and it was gorgeous. Does anyone know if Land Rover and Jaguar share color palettes and just change the name?
UPDATE: Here's an email response from LR:
Maybe because your wife's iPhone was the first device paired with your vehicle -- the LR3 is searching for your wife's by default, not yours. Try deleting both Bluetooth profiles then re-pairing them, but pair your's first.
It actually does have Bluetooth audio. The output works for apps like Mog, Pandora, the default music app, etc. Just doesn't work with Google Maps/Navigation. I think it must just be a quirk with the phone -- there aren't any settings within the Google Nav app that address audio.
Good to know; I just ordered an HSE and was wondering if this was the case. In my current vehicle, when the Bluetooth is connected, the voice-guided directions are not transmitted through the speakers of the vehicle. The main problem with this is that the car's Bluetooth also prevents sound...
Thanks for the advice. I feel fortunate in that the salesman I've been dealing with truly seems intent on making us (my wife and I) happy. He encouraged me to order my LR4 because I mentioned wanting the Heavy Duty Pkg. When, out of curiosity, I asked him if the dealer preferred ordering...
CaptainSpalding,
Unfortunately, the Series truck isn't mine. I was simply stating that to me, that is the classic Land Rover color -- I wish there was something similar now. I LOVE your Defender.
I'm getting ready to put a deposit down on an LR4 -- probably tomorrow. Unless I change my...
On Land Rover's website, under the "Explore" tab, the exterior features section definitely shows a picture of the back up camera with the lines arced. It's listed as a feature for the HSE and LUX.

Is there a practical reason why you don't like tan, or is it just personal preference? I was considering Ipanema Sand as my second choice.
EDIT: Never mind -- I see you're talking about interior.
So, I know a lot of you ordered your LR4's -- what is the experience like?
I've been told by the dealer that a deposit is required, and I should expect to wait about 3 months for delivery. What else is there? Does LR keep you updated on the progress? I read about one manufacturer that...
As far as I can tell, this color hasn't started rolling off the production line, but I'm extremely curious to see it. From the color swatch at the dealer, it looks to have more of a bluish tint than Galway Green (which would've been my color of choice). I was hoping it would be closer to the...
So, I've been to my dealership a few times in the past week to look at the LUX's in person. Spoke to a salesman I've dealt with in the past about ordering a LUX with the Heavy Duty Pkg and Satellite Radio. He never brought up numbers or anything -- just said it was $1000 to place and order and...
uhur,
You raise a valid point. My wife has purchased from the same Audi dealership for years. She usually gets some sort of standard discount off MSRP ($500-ish), and is perfectly content with the transaction because she's treated as royalty. Win-win in my book.
The problem comes when the...
Not a big fan of vanity plates. I do, however, like specialized collegiate plates. That being said, if you were holding a gun to my head, I'd definitely go with DISCO4.
Congrats! I suggested setting the forum up to be compatible with the iphone and Android app called Tapatalk. Makes browsing on mobile devices muche easier, and I'm pretty sure it's free.
Ugh...I hate these games -- that sounds particularly snakey. I'd like to hear people's advice as well, as I plan on possibly ordering an LR in the near future.
I noticed this with my '08 LR3 -- I rarely used the Bluetooth, though, because it was so terrible.
Same thing happens with my wife's Infiniti. Whenever she pulls into the garage while using Bluetooth, I can hear her from the living room.
Rob,
Thanks for the perspective. I did ask him if this was a local policy or a LRNA one. If it was a local policy, kind of a code of ethics, then I kind of admire it. He didn't specify one way or the other.
