Default NEW TOY

I guess I am going to be hanging out in the F-PACE sub-forum as well... Bought the wife a new to us F-Pace S... Color is Glacier White Metallic, Jet/Oyster Stitch... Had some curb rash on the 22's, that is getting repaired today along with all new tires, should be ready for pickup tomorrow...

Congrats. I had an F-Pace as a loaner and I really liked it.

Enjoy!

I'm still trying to talk my wife into trying an F-Pace (or I-Pace) instead of another Lexus next time, in a couple years.
Dunno if she will though.

My wife came out of an 2012 Volvo XC60, so it was an easy sell... She absolutely fell in love with the F-Pace as soon as she got in it...

Wow, that looks hot. F-Pace needs a high spec trim level to look cool and yours certainly has it.

I wish Jag across board dropped the entry trim levels on each line.

When our XE lease ended we looked at a few JLR models including F Pace. The dealer wouldn't knock $50 off anything and said we had to eat 3 months of our remaining lease. Volvo paid off our lease and and discounted the XC60 ended up with.

Was really disappointed in JLR that they could care so little about a multiple returning customer. Add insult to it all, the dealership refused to take XE back when I needed to drop it off. Had to speak to the son of the dealership network to make it happen.

Sounds like a case of Bad Dealer, not Bod Company.
There are a few REALLY bad Ford dealerships around me, and one good one. Only one JAG dealer, so that limits (indy only) my choices.

Like the car, hate the naming convention Jaguar uses (F-Pace, E-Pace, I-Pace). You'd think the E-Pace would be the electric one at least. Congrats on the car! I'm sure she'll be happy with it.

Awesome... I'm glad you like your vehicle, we like ours as well... But if I ever decided to get my vasectomy reversed and have 3 kids I will take your advice into account... Although I think I would rather someone just shoot me at that point...

I've been married four times. Divorced once.
I also live in Utah, but that's not the reason.

Let's do the math. 4 - 1 = 3. Lucky you!

What is it called when a man has 3 wives? Polygamy. Right!

What is it called when a man has 2 wives? Bigamy. Right again!

What is it called when a man has 1 wife? Monogamy. WRONG!!!

It's monotony!

Dealership said JLR was not offering any customer loyalty discounts and JLR would not accept the car on a new lease swap if over 3 months. It was not a dealer decision.

The lack of any discount on an in-stock model was the dealership's decision.

I want to say at the time I also asked Chase or JLR as I wanted to stay with the brand. The only deal I could get was on an XF Sportbrake, but wife wasn't into the only one available in silver. I talked to 3 different area JLR dealers the Sportbrake was the only deal. It was quite a deal at the time, but since it's the wife's car I can only pry so much.

Seems Jlr have very big problems in how to treat customers and this is across every forums on the web, how to bunkrupt a company
