Bob - welcome back. I don't know what to say. If you like the RRS still I would probably continue and take the replacement. It's a tough call. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

Apparently the Supercharged car looses around £8k in the first 6 months.

Just got another reply from LR. Again, they say they can't deal with me directly, but have suggested that I contact the Society of Manufacturers & Motor Traders (SMMT), which is really odd.

If I were u I'd park it across the entrance to the dealership, lock it up and leave it for a while. I had a freelander a few years ago that was nothing but trouble. The dealer was hopeless. I told them what I was going to do if they did not take it back off my hands, carry on they said so I did. Parked it, locked it and waited. Within 5 minutes we were into better deals! For years Land Rover dealers had crap products that no one wanted, now everyone wants them it seems it has gone to there heads! I swore i would never buy another LR after that but here I am in my rrs now! I must admit I have only had mine for 3 weeks and do still expect the grmlins to turn up at somestage but fingers crossed. I do love this motor and it turns heads all the time

It is an amazing car in this respect - even after 18 months of production and 1000's of them on the UK roads they are still a headturner. Mine even turns the heads of other RRS owners as it is such a rare colour! I regularly get asked asked if it is a special edition or an Overfinch/custom repaint, but it isn't it's a standard colour SE spec with body coloured intakes. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it 2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced 2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW |

Hi, I really do hope you get somewhere with your complaints, but as for the SMMT, don't expect any help from them, they will just delay things for you, saying they are awaiting a response from LR, and dealership, and in the end they will just fob you off with a load of wishy washy drivel. If ever there was an outfit in cahouts with the car manufacturers, it is the SMMT, lets face it, they are funded by the manufacturers, and thats probably why LR so kindly recommended them to you. Good Luck though with other means of highlighting a sh!te quality product. |

The thing is ................. name someone who hasn't had a bad taste left in their mouth from any manufacturer/dealer out there. |
