CAROLANNE....In an hour or so I will drive with caravan and my husband to Dover on route to Biaritz. I can drive in confidence that we will get there as our car will be trouble free something we could never do for over ten years of Land Rover ownership.
Wayne some good reports on Whatcar do not cancel out all the problems nor do the "I've had it for a month and it's great".
General acceptance in the press is that the Audi is more refined build than LR. Search for LR reliabilty and tell us that the many posts are hype and that buying Land Rover is a better than evens bet! You can't do it!
Husbands family farm in Rural Northamptonshire and some of my relatives in Devon and Cornwall I'm not sure what the rural thing has to do with reliability.
As you mention the Army Chelsea, we also have officer relatives there. Land Rover products with near endless care and attention and budgets to keep the things running and officers able to have staff attend to there personal Landrovers on a near FOC basis to keep them reliable! Slightly different to the average business or man in the streets resources.
Army and MOD puchase of Land Rover has more to do with UK politics than Land Rovers reliablity and driveability. It has also been said recently that Land Rovers will be changed for Mercedes in a bid for uniformity with combined armed forces. I just can't understand why all the other armies and forces didn't buy Land Rover in the first place.
No doubt people will buy new pretty fashionable models, but unless reliabilty problems are addressed and solved the brand will fail and many buyers will again be robbed of their money. If Land Pover had been of the quality is made out to be the likes af Toyota and others would never have made a dent in the market.
It is still funny that you find no answer for BMW selling such a great product and Ford threatening to solve problems by building outside the UK.
Bye bye and have a great safe summer with any car or van of your choice.
me also thinks carolanne is someone else in disguise!Sorry PC but your comment about being rude is poited at the wrong person
Carolanne (probably Kanga as the comments are well targeted) has posted many rude comments
Examples
group of deluded bores
I bet your Mr Clive is another deluded LR bore
LR drivers are maily deluded
beloved LR a release for his sad working life
Odd for a new memwber to come along and targer others.
I'm neither deluded or have a sad working life, I own a Discovery with 80k on the clock and it does what I want it to do. Yes it does go into the garage a couple of times a year, but MOT and service are normal across every make.
Dave/Kanga seemed to know a bit about bikes too as I remember.P C
You have not come across CRIS on your travels have you?
Strange how great minds think alike.......P C

Well I wouldn't buy a Vauxhall as I don't like their designs.
Triumph of new is a little different to Land Rover built by the same work force from the same factories.
My Dad had four Vauxhall three of them had a serious chain of problems, I don't see that makes a comment I make on Vauxhalls not Valid.
When studying and working as a courier my boss bought a year or so old Range Rover with his new wealth, partly for his own pleasure and partly as a work tool for towing bike trailers. His pride and joy was a joke quite frankly and that was years ago. He still runs a large London based business and is still in love with Range Rovers, he has some other nice cars now but has never had a Reliable Range Rover even though the last four he has had were new, the last in November last year.
Surfing friends have had Disco's and Range Rovers and the off road capabilities as we know at work are very good. A little older now married and settled friends are now in stable jobs and one has a year old Disco 3 that has been far from reliable, another friend has one of the last TD5 that has had Transmission, Engine and Electrical problems he has a young family and having had a major repair done just before the end of the guarantee period he had a
