Replying to: koberry (Nov 24, 2007 9:45 am) In some areas of the country there seems to be more inventory of the LR2 SE than others. Apparently, they are no longer shipping the SE to dealers, only the HSE. So, if you want certain options and colors, it will probably be more challenging the longer you wait. The best deal I could find was $500 over invoice in LA. Even though your dealer may be able to give you a deal near invoice with what he has on his lot, be sure he may not be adding some additional fees. And, if he needs to find the options and color you want than different thnt what he has, you may need to spend a bit more - if he can get it. I believe the 12K lease was about $15/mo more than the 10.5K lease for 30 mos. I have for $410/mo incl. all taxes & fees with a total of $3k down. Obviously, the amount you put down will vary your monthly payment. I believe the heated seats added about $20/mo and the lighting would add over $30/mo. So, when you add your options and additional miles, it would probably be about $100/mo more than for a base unit with no options. If you can get your deal for under $475/mo it would seem to be a pretty good deal. If you exclude the lighting option, you could probably get a deal around $450. With regards to the lease term, the monthly is only a few dollars more for a 30/mo than a 24/mo, but the 36/mo lease jumps up quite a bit for the special SE financing. So, you may want to do 30/mo instead of 36/mo to get the best deal. In LA, there are very few 2008 X3's available, and as a result, the lease deals are not very attractive. A similar deal with my preferred customer status was over $500/mo. for the X3. The only good thing, is that adding Nav is only about $25/mo more and the luxury package includes blue tooth and Sirus for 3mos. free. So, the X3 with tech is actually about the same as the LR2. The RDX may have a better deal than the X3, but it's the worst of the three to go off road and it's interior is inferior, in my view. The tech stuff in the RDX is the most advanced in just about any vehicle I've seen, but they made it more complicated to use than it should be. Good Luck. |

| Heard from Land Rover direct today that the SE is a phase out, not to return. HSE's only from now on. Get a deal on the lot with an SE now or it's back to super high lease prices on the HSE. | |

Hey everyone, new to the forums but have found them to be of immense value. I test drove an LR2 HSE last weekend with the wife and we both really liked it. I've heard the best time to buy a car is at the end of the month, so I plan to lease this one Friday if I can get a good deal. My questions are: -What would be a good lease deal in Los Angeles? I’d like an HSE in Stornoway Grey with all the options, but would consider an SE if the deal makes sense. Ideally I’d like 12K miles (10.5K would work if the rates are better) and a 30 month lease (24 would also work). - What are the current money factors and residuals for an HSE and SE with all of the options? I’d really like to have navi and cold weather packages, but should I exclude the lighting package to get a better deal? -And lastly, should I wait until next month, or is now the right time to buy? Thanks for the feedback, Ryan

I have heard the lease for HSE is over 800/month, though I find that hard to believe. |

Replying to: buckeye777 (Dec 07, 2007 6:48 pm) We really like the SE and want to make a deal before year-end. Here is the deal we were offered on a 2008 SE with cold climate package only (i.e. no NAV and no lighting_ MSRP: 35,400 Sale Price 33,400 LEV% 69% Lease-end value 24,426 MF .00134 Amount Due at signing $1,514.68 Monthly payment: 484.53 This is a 24 month lease with 10,500 miles per year. Is this a good deal? Based on what I have read here they should be able to come down more on the price (ie closer to $30K which I think is invoice). Please let me know what you think. Thanks

Replying to: dbarton7 (Dec 10, 2007 7:44 pm) The best deal I thought was SE no nav for 499 mo for 24 months no money down 10,500 per year.

Replying to: buckeye777 (Dec 12, 2007 6:26 pm) $500 out of pocket/drive off $405/month (including taxes) 30 month, 10.5K miles/year White Ext/black interior, no options (stripped). I head there are only a few of these stripped models in S Cali. Loving this car so far, except gas mileage and Land Rover reliability (hopefully they fixed that with this car). There are other quirky things - no cover for sunroof, no cover for center console cubby, key/fob situation (double work), have to push radio buttons on steering wheel hard to change, etc. Loving the luxury feel, safety and hopefully taking it off-roading during some Land Rover excursions
