After a year in an SC and two in a 4.4 TDV8, today I will be leaving the family I've had three years of driving what is still the best all round car on the road that has been without any mechanical issues (apart from the dealers!)

I only keep my work car until the warranty expires and then change, but this time I have had a real dilemma.....what to buy next. My first choice would be the L405, but at £100k, I cannot justify the initial cost for a high mileage work horse that it will be. I'm hoping in two years time things will be different and I will be able to pick up an ex demo at a reasonable price.

A sad day to see my old faithful go, even though my new car will be waiting for collection.

Oh, and SWMBO is test driving an Evoque this morning, so we may keep a baby RR in the household

I'll be selling dog guard and mats etc, so watch this space. Current MY2020

Sad day indeed Adrian , hope you will still stay around the forum tho  ====================================

"Open Mike Night " sounded like a lot of fun until i found out i was going to an Autopsy

It's never nice moving on when you dont really want to. The shape of the L405 has really won me over now but the price is still OTT. What car are you picking up? Previously..

Off to collect now and buy an Evoque! Current MY2020

Aw sad day. Thanks for your help and advice.

Went to buy the Evoque this morning, arrived at the dealers and they had sold it, even though they knew we were going to come in a put a deposit down! My feelings for LR dealerships can not be printed!! I have not had one good experience in LR ownership.

So, went on to collect my new motor...

You didn't fancy the new Sport as an alternative ?

Nice, and you won't have that depreciation problem now..........no wait!

Nice one... Welcome to Porsche ownership! Previously..
