Default How much everyone paying for new build?

Planning to factory order my first LR this week. Switching from Audi Q7.
Going with Defender 130.
Question to anyone who recently ordered, were you able to get anything off msrp? I have contacted two dealers so afar and they are asking for MSRP.

You can usually get some sort of discount on dealer inventory, but most dealers charge MSRP on custom orders. I ordered mine four years ago, and I got $500 off MSRP because I was a three time repeat customer to my dealer.

We ordered a 2025 V8 110, built on 16 Aug, call from dealer yesterday, will arrive in Brunswick, Ga on 17 Sept and arrive at dealership on 27 Sept.
We had to pay MSRP, however they will give me a $500 military discount. I have seen some discounts on floor inventory.

Thank you both. That’s what I was told by one dealer that they can give discounts on anything on their lot.

I was at the dealer (northern Virginia) last week for an oil change. A 110 was in the showroom with this on the dashboard. First time I’ve seen any significant discount offered.

Ordered a 2025 110 X-Dynamic in May that is built and waiting for a ship. Happy to pay MSRP after fighting to get down to a $5K markup on our 2023 order when the dealer initially wanted $10K over sticker. You should be able to pay MSRP on your 130 order. Not sure what year your Q7 is, but guessing it will be nice to have the Defender with a spare tire. I so wanted an SQ7 but couldn't get past it having regular tires (not run flats) and no spare tire.

Also had to recently do the walk-away, come back and repeatedly negotiate to get to MSRP on an incoming Golf R . Last few Golf R's with a manual transmission are on the way from Germany. Only automatic transmission Golfs starting with the 2025 models. Manual Golf R's on dealer lots all have markups over MSRP, I even saw one with a $30K markup.

My dad has an '18 Q7 Prestige that he ordered new and it has been fantastic. Almost 80k miles and not a single issue, squeak or rattle. It drives just as good as it did when it was brand new. He needs new tires and unfortunately the Goodyear Eagle F1 run flats are no longer available and the only run flats are the ****ty Pirelli Scorpions. I'm having a set of Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4s put on instead. They are the best A/S tire you can get, with borderline summer tire levels of grip. My buddy runs them on his Aston DB9. I wanted to get a set for my Macan (which needs new tires after 2 years and 11k miles) but unfortunately they don't offer them in my 20" wheel, but they are the factory A/S tire if you get 21" wheels. Will be going with the Continental equivalent, the DWS06+.

Ordered spring 24 and picked ours up 2 weeks ago. Had to agree to MSRP because dealer wouldn’t budge. When we picked the vehicle up and signed papers, the dealer gave us a $1000 discount. I’m assuming it’s because our vehicle was part of the last truckload of 2024’s and all orders after ours were MY25.

For those folks who are/have recently purchased: are they showing up with all the ordered options or are they "missing" things that you thought would be included? I think those days are over but I believe they are still issuing the "warning" on the on-line build. Wondering how authentic it is or is it just a lame "we may F-up our supply chain again" disclaimer.
