Opinions on color
There's a ton of Fuji white everywhere, so the best deal is probably to be had on one of those. Can't go wrong with Indus silver or Orkney, IMO Also, the shades of silver will have the best resale value in the long run -

First service denied?
Funny story...about a year ago I scheduled an appointment online at a LR/Jaguar dealership to have an oil change for my LR4 and committed to an online price of about $160.00. When I came in for an appointment, the LR service manager tried to bump me an extra $120.00 claiming that the price... -

Picked up my Causeway Grey LR4...
KBB is in fact the tool recommended/suggested by LRNA, even though an individual dealership is free to offer any number as a trade-in value. That said, I've ALWAYS received KBB "good condition" trade-in number on any car I've ever traded. A dealership that consistently lowballs and tells... -

What charges on top of MSRP?
Regarding the fees, doc fee is pretty much standard everywhere with a few exceptions, and it ranges from $99 to $699. Of course, it is pure profit for the dealership. If you get adamant about it, they'll discount the car for the doc fee amount, but will never remove it from the contract. VIN... -

Picked up my Causeway Grey LR4...
Regarding the trade-in value, I'd definitely run a KBB trade-in value report and use it as a negotiating tool. The dealers are generally full of BS and are are known to hold back money on trades in order to increase their bottom line gross profit. Unless your car is in a horrible shape, requires... -

NOT trading my 2011 for 2013
It really makes no sense to swap an 11 for a 13, unless one has to. Visual differences are non-existent; on my LUX package the audio system is the same (would love to have had Meridian though, but its not available). For my Nav I use my droid phone. Having the black package wheels would be... -

First service denied?
I had my service performed @ 7.5k miles and it counted as the free first service, no charge. but then I drive around 8000 miles a year -

Leftover NEW 2012 LR4 LUX
You need to go in and negotiate in person armed with invoice prices etc. There also seems to be 1k dealer cash assistance on 2013 models -

LR4 Rear ended
Your car's resale/trade-in value will definitely be affected adversely by a Carfax accident report. If you keep the car long enough(4+ years), natural depreciation will mitigate significantly the accident-related loss -

Leftover NEW 2012 LR4 LUX
I'd say a very fair price would be in the $54-55k range -

Turn in or sell?
Contrary to many people's ideas, LR4 indeed holds its value well: my 2011 LR4 LUX in silver with 15k miles will have fetched $45,5k in real trade in value. Bought 2 years ago for $57k On the other hand, there's a 2012 full size RR SC with normal mileage a dealer nearby advertises for $70k -

Turn in or sell?
Re: accessories, technically KBB wouldn't show a significantly higher trade-in value for a well-accessoried vehicle. That said, if the trade-in shows well and the dealer is motivated, they can and will go above an average trade-in value and allow an "excellent" trade-in amount which would come... -

LR4 Long-term Spot Check - Interior Quality
2011 LUX with 15k miles: interior looks like new, but then I am meticulous about leather and plastic conditioning. No creaking even in subzero temps we occasionally have here. Radio/NAV unit went out mysteriously a few times but would always come back after 15-20 minutes. The speakers' membranes... -

Who would buy a supercharged V8 option?
I would, but it'd have to have an enhanced trim livel come with it + a better sound system. It would take it into a $80k+ category. That being the case, a 1 year old full size RR SC would be more appealing -

2011 sport HSE Lux
The mileage is too high and it'll be out of factory warranty soon. That means trouble+the fact that it's sold by non-LR dealership gives you little recourse- uhur

Would love your opinion.
This car is bad luck...too many issues from the start. I'd suggest to get rid of it ASAP. Talk to the dealer and tell them you are not happy with it and ask to swap it for another -

The 2013 Look
The 2013 RR has definitely lost the uniqueness the previous model had. I was about to pull a trigger on a left-over 2012 RR HSE at a huge discount, but stupidly didn't, and now regret waiting for the 2013 to come out first- uhur

Actually switched to ethanol-free gas and now see 21 mpg in mixed driving conditions, per computer:biggrin: -
