John L. Thank you, but we bought 4x4 for 4X4 attributes. our experience is of two brand new Discovery 3 and of LR loan cars!
Then there are the others we've met at dealers and the people writing reports on What Car. I now believe that to be a sister magazine to PC and this site. That's without any other web reports.
We bought a flat screen TV that had a defective digital TV problem. The dealer uplifted it and supplied us with a slightly superior model to compensate for the inconvenience.
All we got from Land Rover dealer was trouble for daring to ask for a car fit for purpose. To get the first car replaced we had to act with two other customers with similar problems and stamp are feet and add the weight of threatening legal letters.
Our second car ended up costing us several thousand lost pounds to get rid of it.
Anything we got from Land Rover came after a fight, at one break down a service manager even suggested the problem was probably our fault as we were using the car off road.
The car failed on a moderate slope in a mowed grass field 300 matresfrom where we left the road, being the supreme British off road product seemed to go right over the guys head!
If the Discovery 3 is truly such a great reliable car why did we have so much difficulty trading it? Why did other makers sales teams when checking the car know what problems we'd had without us mentioning them?
All we asked for was a car fit for purpose and a little help,respect and consideration when they went wrong. Buying a car that cost 40+ times more than a TV and being treated like some modern day leper is not acceptable where we come from.
John L our two car experience may not be indicative of what others may experience but then again others fault free fuel efficient experience is just as unlikely to be indicative of what another buyer may experience if you go and look at others reports and creep around the back of you local LR dealers service area to find the truth.
