With the production now on time out, What will this mean to leasing in the year to come?
If this would create Amazing Hack deals, What would be your dream car out of either of the two makes?
I would love to hack a well equiped Velar at the end of 2019,
Perhaps thatās why weāre getting all these crazy Land Rover demo deals lately? I think itās more likely that weāll see Tata end up selling Jag and/or Range Rover. It seems like they were set on becoming a Volkswagen style player in the market, but were in over their heads.
I got one dealer that offered me 36% off MSRP a new 400 sport coupeā¦ didnāt take it thoā¦ well it got snatched up in my hesitation. I wanted a leaseā¦ but the lease numbers left over 2018ās suck. Iām sure other dealers will follow the trend of big discounts for new vehiclesā¦ I see another dealer taking 40k off a (high mileage) Type R demo
JLR is just not going to win the volume game like the Germans so I highly doubt a sales slump will equate to very aggressive lease deals. If anything they will probably reduce production on low end models as seen and push for more margin on units that already do well for them.
Itās a bit of a perfect storm of a move away from diesel and Brexit nightmares. But they also need to learn that they canāt just churn out extremely unreliable cars and continue to build sales. It seems once youāve been burned by a JLR product, you are very unlikely to buy another.
My Dad is just about to return his second F-Pace (first one was taken back because of huge mechanical issues) and heāll be picking up a Macan in the next couple of weeks. It may not be any better! but he certainly wonāt touch another JLR product again.
Thatās not a Wagonā¦ Thatās a Shooting Brake. Wellā¦ āSportbrakeā, because apparently we canāt reference guns? Either way itās pretty awesome.
