That's a great price but how many miles are on it? I paid over $40k for my 2008 brand new back in Oct 2007. 18" wheels were stock on the SE models. LR is going to be pulling in the 2010 models pretty soon so they're trying to make room by selling the older models off cheap - I'd hold for a bit better price, but not too much longer as it may disappear - I'd ask for another $500 - $1000 off the internet price if the mileage is right. What does Blue Book value it at and was it a rental car? There's a big difference between a leased vehicle and a rental. Those who lease tend to take decent care of them because they don't want to get dinged with huge charges at the end of their lease, but rental cars are usually not taken care of well. I would stay away if it was a rental.

Yeah sorry about that, I realize I didn't list miles, it has 27,075 miles on it. I am not sure if it was a rental. Its being sold by Rosenthal Acura dealership, so not at Land Rover. Edmunds TMV listed it at 28,941 with that mileage which seems kind of high actually. Would the dealer actually tell me if it was a rental, I can't seem them disclosing that. Are you happy with your LR2, how many years of warranty do you get with a Land Rover?

Brake pads on LR2 (15k miles) - lease

Took Rover in for oil change and they mentioned I need to get new pads soon. Have had the Rover for almost two years (30 month lease), dont drive much, not hilly, not fast accelerating/stopping, etc. I know this vehicle is heavy, but this doesnt sound right. I'd hate to get new pads just 2-6 months left on my lease.
Any experiences on how many miles before dealership recommends new pads and how much that will cost? 15k miles sounds too soon.

I've had my LR2 for 19 months, have nearly 24k miles and have never had the dealership mention new pads and it's been to the shop three times for routine maintenance. I love the vehicle and have had only minor electrical issues that have not posed any problems. The only major problem I've had was a complete loss of power steering due to a leaky hose that resulted in a drained power steering system. Landrover picked up the vehicle, replaced the pump and fluid and got me back on the road within 24 hours. I'd find another dealership and report this one to Land Rover Corporate HQ.
