Mmmm, Wife has a 2012 3.0 l. V6 Touareg on 166k miles. Original battery . Its all about the circuitry.

Atlas Mts is easy. Just get the ferry from Algeciras to Tanger Med. Only an hour on the ferry, not expensive. Tanger Med to Fes first day, is an easy 6 hours, in direction of Rabat Overnight in Fes. Fes to Oujda, is a simple 5 hour run. (Or just do Tanger Med to Oujdi in one day, if you get the...

I guess number one culprit on that list of 3, would be the diode pack on the alternator. I would suggest one of the diodes in the alternator charging pack might be passing reverse voltage. They are supposed to only let one half of a wave (frequency cycle) through, and to stop any reverse...

What does that do ? Sorry if a stupid Q.

Hi all, Thanks for the many replies. We have looked at RRS, and the FFRR, in both petrol and diesel. Looked at 2 Jeeps, both 3 liter diesel v6. Then we looked st an ML320. Diesel. I have to say the ML was the best. We have set upon looking for a ML350 petrol, about a 2007 to 2009. In Black...

Hi all, I would like to know, which RangecRovers FFRR or RRS, that you could have factory fitted radar auto cruise control. auto cruise, where it keeps distance from car in front. Was it as early as 06 registrations ? Gra.

Nice find, The later look does look great. Top end of my budget. Gra.

I am actually looking at a 2004 FFRR Vogue. 4,4 L. Little older than I planned, but looks good condition. 121,000 miles. MOT history shows mostly passes, with 3 fails, for tyres, suspension anti roll bar rubbers, and some thing else, can't remember. In a dark blue, looks good, no dents or...

Hi All, Thanks to every one who gave interesting replies on the FFRR and the RRS I think there is a good argument for going for petrol. They seem to have covered less miles as opposed to a diesel of same age. The reliability of a petrol seems to be better than a diesel. Like I said earlier in...

Agree the petrol RRS or FFRR is the desired one. We both have had diesels previously, and now we are both in petrol cars. The midrange punch of diesels is nice, but the silky smooth return to petrol is quite some thing else. Also I agree, the fuel consumption difference isn't massive for her...

Many good points, thanks for your reply. Gra.

I am of the same opinion. The FFRR seems to be a more easier vehicle to work on, compared to the RRS. Is it just the RRS that needs a body lift to get some jobs done, or does this also apply the the ormall full size Range Rover ? What jobs on the RRS need to have the body lifted ? Seems a...

I would agree and prefer the FFRR as opposed to the RRS. I don't think she would take too much persuasion to go for "a real Range Rover" Gra.

Yes you are quite right, If one is a bit laxydaisicle, then for sure you could easily be suckered in. Gra.

Thanks for the good and quick reply. Gra.

Even she knows that as far as reliability go"s, the Land Cruiser we has would take some beating. But never the less, she has set her mind on a RRS. Or maybe even a normal full size Range Rover. Looking at the dimensions, it appears the RRS is just 12 inches or so shorter than the normal Range...

Hi thanks for the reply. Not sure I understand the L322 as opposed the L320 I thought they were all L322. Can you please explain more ? Gra.

Hi all. Its all about engine and gearbox choice. We have had our 120 series Land Cruiser, and it was impeccably reliable. Sold it with 272,000 miles, and about 10,000 miles was towing our 2 ton, 4 wheels caravan all over Europe several times. We sold the caravan, then reluctantly sold the...

OK guys, thanks for the replies. So really, there isn't a sure fire way of just looking at the front end, and saying that that's a early 2006, or a late 2007 or whatever. ? I actually do know the reg, and the year of the two I posted, as I cleaned out the registration plates, but I was more...

Hi all, Here are 2 range Rover L322 Both are V8 diesel How to know which is the newer, just by styling? . Cheers Gra
