If it sounds too good to be true it isn't.

Back when the LR4's were selling very slowly (2011-2013), there were a lot of Demo's for sale just like these 18 D5's. In fact my local dealer almost never had a new one in stock, but always had 2-3 "used demos" with 1k-3k miles and the CPO extended warranty. I think they figured out it was a better way to move the vehicles....Seems like the D5 is falling into this trend...
Keep in mind that Land Rover is "attempting" to create 3 segments - RR, Discovery and Defender. Luxury, Family and Off-Road (jury is still out on the new Defender).
""Luckily I have no experience in STD's to offer an opinion on that one...
I’m a soccer mom and I love my discovery. I go off road with it taking kids to the farms, hiking, and field trips. I bought the diesel and it has plenty of power. I’ve had several people get in it, love it, and then go buy one. I think they just didn’t do a great job marketing it to the right demographic. Seriously love this car. Off road and comfort is off the chain. I love the front of it. The back end is a little weird but I’ll take it because I love the tail gate seat with the tailgate lift. It also has amazing towing power.
LR would go broke with you as the decision maker me thinks.We don't need 3 segments. We need Range Rover (private school crowd) to provide profits to build the Defender (rugged utility yet comfortable D4 replacement) plus maybe a LR2 replacement Defender Sport.
