Replying to: kyfdx (Sep 28, 2006 6:54 am) Uhh yeah Land Rover does not do agressive leases. That is actually something else I talked to Bill, the service rep, about. LRCG(Land Rover Capital Group) is going to have to step it up and offer some competitive leases on Land Rovers in general.   I am so tired of trying to explain to someone why a 65,000 dollar Range Rover Sport leases at over 1,200 dollars a month and a 7 series that costs 10,000 dollars more leases for around a grand a month.

BMW has some seriously aggressive lease deals on the X3. If you check out bimmerfest, you can actually view BMWFS money factors & residuals under the ask a dealer forum. The last time I checked they had set a 75% residual on a 24 month lease/ 15K per year lease (65%/36 month 15K) for an '07 X3.   I have no doubt that LR will make the LR2 a competitive vehicle in the market. Hopefully you'll be able to close some more deals and add some dough to your own bottom line. Thanks for keeping us updated.

Replying to: nickelpete (Sep 26, 2006 4:28 pm) I'd hope that $27K number is closer for the base version. The LR3 starts right around $40K, and a loaded up LR2 ought to be comfortably less.   Jeep is selling more Liberty SUVs than I can count, and Land Rover would do well to position themselves just a notch higher. $36K for an LR2 doesn't bode well for sales. At $30K, it should do very well. Replies to this message: british_rover (Oct 11, 2006 6:37 am) billymay (Oct 11, 2006 9:48 am) british_rover (Oct 11, 2006 10:14 am)

Replying to: billymay (Oct 10, 2006 9:10 pm) A LR3 for 2007 with the six cylinder and five passenger is going to start at nearly $44,000 with the cold climate package.   A V8 LR3 for 2007 is going to start at over $50,000 with the cold climate package. This is because for 2007 all V8 LR3s will have seven passenger and all of them will get, auto dimming interior mirror, rear PDC and fog lamps standard.   I think a base LR2 will come in around $30,000 with a more loaded one approaching $40,000. I see the main competitior to the LR2 being the X3. Typical options for a loaded X3, navigation, Leather, 5 speed automatic, heated seats, xenons and privacy glass push the MSRP up to nearly $44,000.   Land Rover has a tendancy to undercut BMWs pricing for a comparable vehicle by a little bit but at the same time offering more standard features for less money.

Replying to: british_rover (Oct 11, 2006 6:37 am) A base LR2 at $30K would be fine, especially if the base model includes a leather interior and if dealers will actually order some that aren't loaded to the gills (i.e., I don't need the cold climate package in San Diego.)   The preview brochure I got gives scant detail about anything, but fuel economy and towing capability (3500 lbs sounds low when the Liberty does 5000 lbs...) may sway my decision.

Replying to: billymay (Oct 11, 2006 9:48 am) I really wouldn't want to tow 5000 lbs with a liberty. That would be very painful. Keep in mind the liberty has low range and the LR2 does not so check and see if that 5,000 lbs tow rating is in low range only.
#58 of 1122 Got some more info by british_rover Oct 16, 2006 (7:20 am)
We are going to order the first set of LR2s this month. Our order call for Oct. 24-25 will include 2008 LR2s for December production which makes me think we could get them as early as Late Feb. or early March.   That morning I should know what trim levels will be offered and what will be standard/optional on the various trim levels.   I still won't know pricing though.
#59 of 1122 Well... by british_rover Oct 22, 2006 (4:13 pm)
We got our LR2 marketing package on Friday. I have basicly all the information now except for pricing of course.   I will make a couple of posts sharing some additional details on monday. Anything I don't post about just ask and I will answer if it is in the packet. Replies to this message: lrguy44 (Oct 23, 2006 11:33 am) british_rover (Oct 23, 2006 6:08 pm)

Replying to: british_rover (Oct 22, 2006 4:13 pm) There is a bulletin out - looks like one trim level. Options include Cold Climate, Lighting (Xenon, Adaptive front, Memory driver seat and mirrors, approach and puddle lights), Tec (Nav, Bluetooth, HK Sound, Sirius Radio, and rear seat audio controls), Pixel metalic interior and Narvik black paint. No firm pricing yet but rumour is 34-38k Replies to this message: british_rover (Oct 23, 2006 6:08 pm)
