Just sent LRCS another email Evil or Very Mad

I have been trying to avoid the stress of a battle because at the end of the day it is just a car but I can see I will have no choice at this rate Sad

Not looking good for my continuing JLR custom Banging Head

At the end of the day I always believed you get what you pay for - so I thought paying twice the price of my FL2 GS Auto for the RRS HSE would get me twice the car/enjoyment - not half Big Cry Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Your vans not over 2000kg is it? it will be high on the 85% rule but thats a guide and experienced drivers could push it to 100%, but on the other hand it might not be as enjoyable tow on your trip as i guess the grunt of a RRS would be a god send (when it works)

Just sell the van Thumbs Up Or hire a sport or FFRR when you need to tow the van, then you can widen your search for another vehicle Rolling Eyes If i'd of been treat like you have by L/R then i wouldn't be buying another Mr. Green

LRCS have just informed me dealer principal is finishing today and no longer dealing with my problems Shocked

They seem more interested in selling me a new car than my grievances Rolling Eyes

Dealership are collecting my sick/shoddy repaired sport tomorrow and leaving me a Demonstrator but nobody can tell me what is happening after that. Apparently they have been unable to sort the problems with their vogue so I cant have it back - this does not bode well Sad

Been waiting over a week for details and photos of a 2011 vogue in group that may be suitable subject to figures but still received nothing Evil or Very Mad Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

There's always this option:

http://laughing-stalk.blogspot.co.uk/searc...=0&y=0

I'm banned from all BMW garages for sitting in a show room in an X5 honking the horn during a bank holiday (ensured it was a full showroom) and shouted 'don't buy BMW they're crap' until finally the principal dealer agreed to speak to me regarding my horrendous BMW I had. Got all my cash back but agreed to never set foot on site again. The ban was then extended country wide. Suits me they mostly Censored !

Not acceptable Muddy, get onto LRCS today again and find out what THEY are going to do!
The dealer changing is not your problem, so don't accept that as an excuse. Get them to transfer you to a dealer that can help!

Not quite as extreme as the link above, but I'd definitely be down the dealers trying to get a resolution to this laughable situation. Seems at the moment LR have got the lube out and are giving you a good seeing to. Shocked ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
