Total (bad) joke. I have loved my Landrovers over the years from Series 1 to the unstoppable 300 tdi, but how anyone could seriously spend 40 to 50 grand on a thing like that amazes me.
A friend bought an 06 Disco 3 last year, apparently his recent life's ambition, and now the glowplugs have gone and he has been quoted ridiculous prices to repair it, as more often than not the old glowplug breaks up on removal and half of it lands up on the piston, so you have to take the head off. Also you have to take the body off the chassis to do a proper repair.
With so many cheaper pickups about, or even the Sang Sung Musso Rexton (probably spelt wrong) with a unlimited mileage 5 years warranty why would anyone bother?
Seems to be some suggestion pickups are designed to only last 15 years but these things made by LR are no different. 10 years and then they want recycled if they get that old. The amount of money it takes to repair some of the common faults is awesome.
