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.

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.

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.

The big issue now is that the satellite system is headed for a breakdown. Money for new satellites is the issue.

Actually, I think the Air Force is still responsible for the system.

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.

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).

Playing Dvd's on your navi screen???

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.

Put the car in reverse and adjust your mirrors to what you want when backing. Put the car in park. The mirrors should return to the normal setting. When you go back into reverse, they will dip or whatever you set up for backing. To change the reverse function just repeat the process.

Used 2008 LR2

Wondering if it is worth buying a used 2008 LR2 SE with Navigation. The internet price is $24,995 and possibly could get it a little lower with negotiation. The price already came down from $26,500 last week. I thought the 17' wheels were standard but these have 18". Wondering how I could do with a 2009 version in terms of price....
