there is a current "panic-buy" mentality going on with Defenders...as Mike said,the end is in sight....pushing up the prices "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool,than to speak out and remove all doubt" ?.....what rubbish...

New Defender sales are up by 5% but this is 4% less than 2012 sales which saw a little boom tbh  21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

Good to see the company doing so well and those warranty figures show they are getting more reliable  Cheers Ian

Just thinking about warranty costs, if the cost of the vehicles keeps rising, then LR revenue will rise even if they do not actually make any more vehicles. (I know they are making more). So warranty cost per revenue figure may not mean much.?? We want to know what percentage of their vehicles bust year on year. Just my thoughts.
