Bloody landrovers!!!

Why is it when you spend some cash sorting stuff on a Landrover it breaks somewhere else? I think they do it on purpose! I've just had a new steering box fitted, a new diff seal, a new aerial, a full service and new wiper blades in the past 3 weeks and just 1 mile of driving after the steering box was fitted there's a grinding noise from the n/s/f wheel area so that's my saturday gone trying to sort that now GRRRR

Don't think "I have to fix my landy now"... Think "I GET to fix my landy now"!

I blamed the landy when I should have been blaming the council because they had resurfaced a road with a bit of tar and gravel because they are too tight to repair the roads properly so a tiny stone had got lodged I between the brake disk and backing plate. At least it didn't cost anything to fix

Wot in ya pants

Land Rovers, you either have to have deep pockets, or be willing to get your hands dirty

As Tubes says, I prefer to think that when you fix something, you learn how it all goes together, give it a few years and modern cars will not be able to be worked on without a USB stick and Laptop

That's why most of my cars are from the 80s lol
