Mind sharing who your salesperson at Cerritos was? Trying to custom build a 110 and they are asking $15k over MSRP

Does this Darin guy still work there by any chance? Trying to custom build and order a 110 but mostly every dealer I've inquired with (in socal) wants to charge at last $10k over MSRP

My son purchased a 110 back. in February '21 and I purchased a '90, back in March of '21. Discounts and inventory were still happening back then even though the writing was clearly on the wall. We've both since moved on from these vehicles, selling them to Carmax for crazy money!!! I think Darrin is till there.......not to sure discounts or MSRP deals are...........good luck!!!!!

SLC Utah, is the only honest dealership in the United States. Seriously. I highly recommend them.

So far best dealer experience I have had and was able to get a couple % points off MSRP (this was back in January when I ordered). Happy to connect you with my CA.

Do you know if they sell out-of-state? Located in CA

We bought a brand new Discovery last month out of state away with no markup, we actually paid 2k under MSRP.

It was a unique situation, car had been on their lot for 2 months already and didn't sell. What they didn't know is the car wasn't listed for sale on any sites like Autotrader.com or Cars.com. The car which was Eiger Grey and loaded with features was a hot ticket (we had been looking for 6 months). Which is why I believe they sold it to me, to just get it off the lot.

Scour for vehicles directly on the Landrover website and you may get lucky.

I’d love the name of your Guide/Client Advisor in SLC -My 2019 Full Size Discovery was totaled last month (drunk driver in a Ford Econoline Van hit us head on at 55MPH; I’ve driven an LR since 2000, my first accident, and, our LR Absolutely Saved Our Lives&#128591

Everywhere I’ve been calling is saying $10-30K Over MSRP for a New Defender 110, even for an order. (Not to mention CPO ones are over MSRP also?!

Or if anyone knows where I can purchase a New 6-cylinder Defender 110 (in-stock or order) for MSRP OR LESS, anywhere in the US, I’d love the tip!

-Thank you in-advance!

(I’m on the west coast).

Wow! I was going to send you a link to a CarMax Defender. Then I was going to say it's a low mileage Defender and consider it a "demo car". You should go for it...

Then the search results came back and they have NONE Nation wide across their hundreds of stores. I hate to write it, but you are in for a >MSRP purchase if you want a Defender. The main option you have right now (hopefully to change) is how much over.

Good luck for the MSRP search and I'm optimistic it will happen. You'll just need to contact a lot of Dealers until it happens. I think someone else did the same looking for a Trek Defender.

Just visiting Cerritos JLR on mom's weekend and they are sitting on a few X- D 110's. That might be because they are asking $10k over sticker and claim they are unable to take orders 🙄
