LR customer services should supply you with a decent car, they can if they try!
I know a guy at the local Enterprise car rental, they have various LR's that are strictly kept for this kind of thing.

As you say tell them you will send them a big bill for car hire, I am sure they will sort something then.

I am assured it will be a similar car - but as mine is broken and cant be driven, not sure I want a "similar" car... ie broken and cant be driven

Don't be silly Wokkaman, it will be a LR (hopefully) and so it will be fine for the first 4 hours, then it will require a visit to the dealer

Kaine - its the dynamice response ECU - not the engine ECU so I think our TDV8's seem ok

I got 24.9 MPG going to Leamington Spa last week doing 70-90's with the odd 120 thrown in

I love Dynamic Response faults - just great.

I got a Disco 3 from Enterprise last time but Jags every time before.
