Absolutely right! Land Rovers in Lockdown are hard to beat for reliability.

I'm going to sneak to the garage for diesel and then I'm going into the forest to do a touch of 4x4ing for a break from the house and bloody gardening... Mind you, I've finished a client's car today. our bus is more reliable than my plastic volvo

Now I have nowhere to go it has stopped working (partially my fault but it needs doing).

Can bus errors that only show up once or twice a year.. Fuse box resoldered, abs module resoldered and relays changed as well. It'll cut out with no power, guages and throttle... Then as if by computer magic... All good.
I can't trace à thing
