Replying to: lrguy44 (May 28, 2009 7:13 pm) So the price just keeps going on from the primary source, as suspected. Now, if we could all just cut out the middle man, we could buy our cars for a LOT less.

Replying to: rocknroll389 (May 22, 2009 9:20 am) Hello, rocknroll, just to add my 2 cents: You should definitely strive to go lower. Here's why: I bought my new 08 LR2 HSE last month for 10 K off MSRP. It was the dealer's way of saying "let's get these 08's out before the 09's come out". We had a pick of cars, so ultimately did not get the GPS, which I've heard is fantastic, only because my husband has a portable unit already. So for $26,950, we chose the model that had bluetooth and satellite radio.    Our salesman even cautioned us against the next equipped model, since it had about 10K miles on it, and therefore, would have one or two less maintenance services included. Our vehicle had 155 miles on it. So I would consider using Edmund's pre-owned/used values on these demos, to argue a price. Good luck!   P.S. I was going to use what I saved in not getting nav, to put in extra wood inlay around the radio and shift stick, but I am no longer the primary driver... my husband preferred it so I'm now driving his purchase (A4 Avant, which I love).

Replying to: pinerivergal (May 29, 2009 4:14 am) Nice price. Good choice too. My wife wasn't too sure about me buying the LR2 and I had a few issues with it my first year, but since I just bought a spotless '04 Discovery SE and gave my wife the LR2, she loves it. I'd love to take the little bugger off-roading a bit more, but doubt that's going to happen since I handed over the reins. The LR2 is quite impressive in my opinion.

#1109 of 1122 GPS system that at first was military.: LR2 Purchasing Help [sixthflick] by lrguy44 May 29, 2009 (4:51 am)
Replying to: sixthflick (May 29, 2009 4:11 am) I should have said all the maps are on a storage device. Memory card, hard drive, etc. NAVTEQ sells the maps (yes Land Rover DVDs are a NAVTEQ product). The satellites are part of the US GPS system that originally was for the military. When I get to work I will give you the specifics on my used vehicles.

Replying to: lrguy44 (May 29, 2009 4:51 am) If you know, who maintains or replaces the satellites in the US GPS system?   -Nevermind - I just checked. It looks like Homeland Security - makes sense. Replies to this message: lrguy44 (May 29, 2009 5:02 am) lrguy44 (May 29, 2009 5:23 am)

Replying to: sixthflick (May 29, 2009 4:56 am) The big issue now is that the satellite system is headed for a breakdown. Money for new satellites is the issue.

Replying to: sixthflick (May 29, 2009 4:56 am) Actually, I think the Air Force is still responsible for the system.

Replying to: sixthflick (May 29, 2009 4:19 am) My 30k mile 08 SE (CCP Bluetooth Lighting Sirius) is at $26,900. I have a Tambora Flame with about the same miles at $24900.

Replying to: heyjewel (Feb 13, 2007 7:29 am) Before you give up on the LR2 take a look at the You Tube Videos of them off roading(also check out Freelander 2 Videos).
#1115 of 1122 Playing Dvd's on your navi screen??? by botorious Jun 02, 2009 (6:24 am)
Hi all,     New to the forums Just picked up a new 09 lr2. So far so good. I would like to know if anyone has done a mod like this to have the navi screen play dvds? Also the manual says the side mirrors can go down but have no clue how to do that. Unless they took it out of the 09's. Replies to this message: lrguy44 (Jun 02, 2009 10:18 am)
