    Glad to hear you've got your RR back on the road and that it's running well. I bet it wont be Long before you get fed up and re-fit the power box...

    This is a Range Rover. Sadly.

    My girlfriend wants one and I said it's not a problem as Long as I could have a TD V8! :-) I'd have one just as Long as I never had to ride in the back!

    Morning all I've had a go in one and all I would say is that you'd be better off getting a nice Freelander (if there is such a thing....):p What I find more worrying is that I'm told that from 2012 they will be re-styling the Range Rover in the same style as the Ewok sorry Evoque.... I can't...

    road perfomance

    Mines an oil burner so I tend to do a whisker over 70 using cruise where ever I go, not too much cabin noise and not too painful on the pocket.... She will cruise at 90 but it's not pleasant if you know what I mean.... If you feel the need to get there any quicker choose a different weapon ;););)

    I didn't think you were just cutting and pasting from other pages (that's what I do now and then)

    Well all I can tell you about what I've found is that the increase in grunt is to good to miss out on so plug it in and see what you think,I bet you won't unplug it!!! As for the fueling debate I look at it like this, if your in town stop starting a lot you will us more fuel but on the motorway...

    My God you really did manage to fit a lot in!!!! I can see why you like big toys so much... Myself I just needed to be able to do a few jobs on our little bit of land like using a harrow, roller and cutting fire wood, the best job was cutting down a few big old trees for a chap down the road...

    I've got a little grey Fergie, it spends most of it's time in the garage at the mo but it'll soon be out and working... So are you a farm girl or do you just like play with big toys?;)

    5' 3"!! You'll need a step ladder to get into a Navara.....:D:D:D Another good reason I like mine is that can crouch down to let my dear old mum get in and out...

    I've had a couple of other 4X4's and they're not a patch on a Range Rover for comfort even the older ones are still nice. I tried a few others before I got mine and in most respects they just felt a bit cheap and nasty the worst being a Jeep nasty, nasty, nasty....... I also had a go in a 2007...

    So have you already moved to the dark side and bought a Navara? Is it me or are they BIG? When ever one passes me it just looks a bit of a monster...

    It's a shame you've got to get rid of your Rangie but it sounds like your being left without a choice.... I thought about getting a van, (I do a bit of property development at the weekends) but I couldn't do it so I bought a trailer instead...:D I hope my injector pump doesn't give up the...

    If I was going to sell my Rangie I'm sorry but I'd only buy another newer one (if I could afford one!!!) I've just had mine serviced and I've fallen in love with it all over again............ I think mines reliable you just have to get a good one and look after it....

    Traction Control in snow and ice - yay or nay?

    We used to have a S type Jag that was the same, just a little too much of the loud peddle and it would leave you sitting in the middle of the road waiting for something to happen...... (it was switched off most of the time)

    Traction Control in snow and ice - yay or nay?

    Last year in the snow the only time mine kicked in was as I pulled away while turning out of a junction.... Is it me or does it make a funny noise when it cuts in... On a side note I've been driving mine around feeling all was well and I had no complaints about it's performance, I got it...
