Unfortunately after 15 months of Land Rover ownership due to a major life change I've had to do the unthinkable and trade my Disco in for a 'sensible family car'.
After several large repair bills and having to compete mpg wise with a car that regularly does 60+ the final straw came last month when we found out we're expecting our first child. I spent many a long hour trying to find some way we could magically make my Disco stop costing us but it was to no avail.
With a very (very!) heavy heart I went down to a local car dealer and traded my 'Rover in for a sensible, economical, very reliable small family car. The paperwork has been signed and the countdown has begun for what will be one of the hardest days in my motoring life to date. Monday at 12 o'clock the exchange will take place.
:Cry:
Sorry, I'm getting all emotional thinking about it!
I will still occasionally have a look in here, once bitten by the Landy bug I know it will never leave.
How easy is it to prise a Skoda badge off a steering wheel and replace it with a Land Rover badge? I think it could be the only way I will be able to cope with my loss.
