    Great write-up!

    Placed my order tonight!

    Corris Grey is an excellent color! I wanted Causeway or Corris but my wife insisted that we not get another grey car. As for the warranty, convenience I guess. I won't have to deal with it in the future. It's also definitely cheaper buying it now vs when the car is 4 years old. I know I...

    Placed my order tonight!

    I got the 7 year/100,000 mile LRNA extended warranty. I got it for $3,600. The past two weeks were agony! My dealer told me as soon as it hit the port in Baltimore that it would be at the dealership within days. It took two weeks! I was waiting every day for a call saying it had arrived.

    What's with the evoques

    As I mentioned in my "LR Order" thread, my wife liked the looks of the Evoque enough that she asked for a test drive today after we bought our LR4. I drove the Evoque a bit as well. It's not a race car, but it has enough power. It had a smooth comfortable ride and handled very well. It's not as...

    Got it! The dealer really made it a nice easy experience. We even went on an Evoque test drive after we were done (my wife thinks they are cute).

    Placed my order tonight!

    Tomorrow is the big day!!! My LR finally made it to my dealer yesterday evening. They are going to do the pre-sale inspection today. I'm taking off work tomorrow to go get it! I'm not going to be able to sleep at all tonight.

    EpicLR4's 2014 LR4 Build Thread

    I agree. I like the same kind of mat you do. I purchased WeatherTech mats before for another vehicle and ended up sending them right back. They were too "plastic" for my taste. I have a friend that swears by WeatherTech and keeps them in all his vehicles, so I understand their popularity...

    2014 Oil Leak???

    Bad head gasket. Wow. How many miles are on it? I'd think Land Rover would take care of you.

    What's with the evoques

    I see lots of Evoques daily where I live and work. They are driven equally by both men and women. My buddy has one. He loves it. He also has a RRS. I would consider an Evoque if I was looking for a small SUV. I think they look awesome and while they can't compete with the LR4, they are at...

    Placed my order tonight!

    I negotiated when I placed my order. I told him that I wouldn't place an order without agreeing to the final price. I started off by offering $500 over invoice. The sales manager laughed and said "no way." Then it seemed we somehow started negotiating a discount from MSRP. The negotiation went...

    Baltimore maybe? Whichever port they come through for the mid-Atlantic.

    Placed my order tonight!

    Yeah, I did better than that. It probably helps that there are 7 Land Rover dealers within about an hour and a half drive (4 under an hour) from my house. More competition helps. My LR4 is still at the port! Frustrating! I got so excited because I thought it would be to me by this past...

    JD Power's CSI survey is out - Nothing to see here, again

    My dealer is a Jaguar Land Rover dealer. They told me they give Jags to Land Rover owners and Land Rovers to Jag owners. They apparently get a lot of sales that way. I guess I'll find out if they really do that when I take my LR4 in for service for the first time.

    Ordered HSE .... They Delivered Base

    Thanks for the tip! I see two different sets for the LR4 on their site: 1. http://www.rackoutfitters.com/land-rover-lr4-thule-black-aeroblade-edge-roof-rack-10-13/ 2. http://www.rackoutfitters.com/land-rover-lr4-thule-black-aeroblade-edge-base-roof-rack-10-13/ They differ slightly...

    Ordered HSE .... They Delivered Base

    Dubroz, did you get those all-black crossbars from the dealer?

    Ordered HSE .... They Delivered Base

    Very nice! Congrats! I can't wait to get mine. My dealer thought it would be here by today, but it apparently hasn't been released from the port yet. He says next week.

    Ordered HSE .... They Delivered Base

    Oh, is that part of the deal? I didn't read it that way. How would the transition work when the 2015 arrives? I'd want to get that part in writing.

    Ordered HSE .... They Delivered Base

    Honestly, that doesn't seem like all that great of a deal. I got almost that on my 2014 that is on-time and correct.

    Ordered HSE .... They Delivered Base

    One benefit of not having comfort access could be that you might be able to install a remote starter. That being said, I would want to receive what I ordered and I don't think I would accept a vehicle that was incorrect.

    Placed my order tonight!

    Yeah, I will of course ask for documentation before signing up for anything.

    Placed my order tonight!

    My dealer said that the Land Rover warranty has to be purchased within 15 months/15,000 miles. I don't know if that was true or just a sales tactic. The dealer sells a 3rd party warranty for owners that are beyond that window. The same coverage as the Land Rover warranty costs a lot more...

    Placed my order tonight!

    I too am going to get the Land Rover extended warranty. It will cover me to 7 years/100,000 miles. As Dan said, it's under $4k. I am also considering the wheel and tire protection package. I got the Black package with the painted wheels on my LR4. I foresee needing to replace one or...

    Placed my order tonight!

    Got an email from my dealer today. My LR4 will be here a couple weeks early! It should be off the truck by this weekend! Can't wait!

    2015 the new discovery

    http://www.autoblog.com/2014/04/15/land-rover-discovery-vision-concept-new-york-2014/ There are real-life pics at that link. I think it looks even more bulbous than in the promotional pics.

    2015 the new discovery

    Meh. It looks like every other mall-crawling SUV on the market. I want to see a picture of what it looks like with the rear hatch open and the seats folded. No way those seats fold flat for a continuous loading deck like in the current LR4.
