Do you always get a LR when in for warranty service?

Should one expect to always receive a Land Rover when you take your Land Rover in for warranty service? When we take our LR3's in for service we have ended up with Subaru's Shocked

The stealer claims that they don't have any LR's in the fleet Rolling Eyes and we will be given Subaru's (LR dealer also owns a Subaru dealership.)

I was just curious on what experiences the group may have with this issue.

We got a Kia Picanto a few months ago because the dealer had sold all of their fleet LRs Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad

It was so small we couldn't even fit the pushchair in the boot (trunk).

They only had 2 months to arrange a courtesy car, so maybe they didn't have enough notice Laughing

I had a 'W' reg escort diesel once, and yes, it was this year.
That must be around 1999/2000

Last service [Nov] had a 51 plate Pug something.

But last week I got an 06 FL1

Things are gradually improving!

If you've got an Auto, say that you only drive automatics.

They tend to reserve the Auto boxes for the premium Land Rovers and Jags etc.

Always. Even booked some warranty work on Friday last week and they took the car in on monday and gave me a fl1. Mind you they still have the car but that's another story. With a week or so's notice I got a FL2 as I said I didn't like the FL1.

Once put my (Then pretty new) P38 Vogue in for warranty work and was given.......................A Bedford Rascal van. As you can imagine I was over the moon!!! Twisted Evil Was rather annoying having to don a hat and false beard as a disguise every time I needed to go somewhere!
