Just returned from the dealer for service on my LR4. Some thoughts/observations.
- There are NO LR4's on the lot. They would like a few but they are all sold and/or not being traded in.
- Lots of Evoque's and Discovery Sports. That's good and bad.
- The Discovery 5 is not selling well. A few sales but overall very low to non-existent.
- Discovery 5 target market is really a different person. The Audi/Volvo/fill-in-the-blank customer. They aren't seeing them in showrooms.
- Discovery 5 front end too big / window slope too great / trail visibility poor.
- Mentioned that all LR models now look the same. Agreement and grumbling.
- The loaner, an Evoque, was really a cheap POS and shouldn't be wearing the RR badge. External visibility is horrendous.
- Per directive E stations being installed
