Congrats.
But come on! If this technically inept old git can upload a picture or two here (and I swear, promise, there was no help from my children) surely anybody else can?

| I think RRSMan was saying the opposite. Anyway, each to their own. Silver for me, even on a black car. I ordered a Borealis black AB with silver wheels and silver roof on the same day I put the dep ... |

Regardless though. the car looks superb Lee

Jim,

Paul,
I have spoken to Sam and Simon at URBAN a few times since I saw and heard their MY18 SVR in February and that is the same answer they have been giving me. And clearly the more people that en ... |

Have just had an interesting chat with EMaC who operate/manage the Service Plan on behalf of JLR.
My supplying dealer had confirmed they had registered my MY18 Sport for the 5 Year Plan. However on ... |

Sorry - should have been clearer. The offer was from Black Horse Limited.

RRSMan, I didn't take up a Finance offer but Stratstone in Mayfair offered me 4.5% APR on my MY18 SVR. My son used Oracle Finance for his car recently and I think he got 4.3% APR for his car.

Hi Lee,
No (and touching lots of wood!) not a single problem with the screens / infotainment system.
