RRS 575

[500 Miles]

Hello,

I’ve fallen for a black RRS 575 in my local dealership, it’s listed at £125k which although seems crazy I’m coming to the idea of justifying it by saying I’ll keep it for ages....

Am I mad?

I should be able to get the Landrover family discount (not sure how much) and hopefully they’ll want to do a deal - anyone managed to achieve any decent discounts on new RRS’s?

Thanks all,

Mark

Hi,

It’s basically the current gem RRS SVR

Thats insane money for a car thats going to let you down a few times (at least) and plummet like a stone in depreciation......

FFS, £125k! Think what that could buy you........

OK, if its my equivalent of a couple of bags, fill yer boots, but otherwise...wow.

Yeah, I alternate from exactly this thought to ‘oh feck it, just do it.’

Thanks all.

I’m thinking of replacing the DB11 with it, running out of garage space so something would have to go and neither of the current cars are overly practical.

If I go for it, I would probably put the Mclaren into storage now until spring and probably sell the DB11 in Feb or March - have given it to a mate just now and market will probably be subdued until at least the new year.

It’s probably going to be the last non hybrid performance RRS, although that could just be me justifying it to myself...

Any idea on discounts btw?

[500 Miles]

I hadn’t, although just had a look at then now.

I do really like the proper one and have been a passenger a few times in the long wheelbase one, it’s a great car to be driven in. However, I think it’s probably too big for me - and a bit grown up as well.

Good shout though.

[500 Miles]

Yeah, it does look cool..

I might make it into the garage tomorrow to start discussions...

Hi,

Thanks for the info - was the 12 and 18% on new cars? I wonder if you can get the ‘staff’ discount on top of this - would assume one is funded by the dealer and the other by JLR.

Thanks again.

[500 Miles]

Btw - you have a great mix of cars there.

My man maths tells me that if I can get a manufacturer discount on the £125 to something like £110, then a 20pc ‘staff’ discount on top of this... it’s a no brainier.

Popped in today to have a look - stunning car, well specie - seats are ebony and tan which I wouldnt normally have thought about however they are growing on me - also moves me away from always going black..

Somebody is apparently calling me tomorrow.. will let you know how it goes.

Thanks for all the feedback.

Life’s too short to not go for a silly 4x4.

Yes it’s expensive, but it’s fast, rather cool, sounds amazing and will drink the Middle East dry in a year.

Do it.

I like your thinking!

Wait a year or so and pick it up for £30k.

If I could pick up a 12 month old current gen model, I’d buy a couple!

If only.

Update...

Spoke to the salesman.. went through the spec of the car and requested some costs to add in a tow bar, also asked about the Tata discount scheme.. and.... nothing..

He was going to email the information but didn’t.I've chased but heard nothing back - will probably chase again tomorrow however thought they would be more responsive. Doesn’t bode well if this is how they are in ‘sales mode’.

500, I hope you didn't mention the discounts you have seen here.

No, I didn’t.

He emailed earlier to say that the RRS wasn’t in scope of the deal currently, didn’t even ask if I was interested - v odd sales approach. Business must be good, still considering it but less bothered about buying locally if that’s the service.

Have you considered the F-Pace SVR?

I hadn’t, I don’t think I’ve actually seen one in the flesh - the pics look good

its a January 2019 car, that's only covered 2k, and was once owned by a famous comedian apparently who was robbed In his (missus) car whilst doing the school run.

I ll get some phots up shortly.

That sounds very very smart
