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

That sounds like bad earth connection. Or power to fusebox going.

What's a battery drain?

It’s the guttering for the battery to leak out. Not needed on a RRC as there’s generally big holes in the floor everywhere

Properly maintained they are as reliable as most vehicles. Badly maintained and fixed by a prick without a clue they can be problematic. just like anything else.

More risk of dying of starvation here at the moment.

Keep well Tony

New words to the song I WILL SURVIVE

At 1st I was afraid, I was petrified,
There was no loo roll down at Aldi and I nearly cried.
Oh I spent so many nights just thinking how you did me wrong,
I used to wipe,
And now I’m forced to just drip dry !
No anti-bac !
No bloody soap,
and if you think you’re buying pasta well you’ve got no bloody hope !
I would have bought that box of eggs, I would have rationed out my bread,
If I’d have known for just one second everyone would lose their head !
Go on now go, walk out the door !
All you bloody stockpilers,
You are not welcome any more !
Weren't you the ones who just bought all the sodding beans ?
You selfish gits !
I hope you spill them down your jeans !
Oh no not I, I won’t panic buy!
Oh as long as I have alcohol, I know I’ll stay alive,
Though I can’t buy my usual cheese,
This will not bring me to my knees
And I’ll survive, I will survive, hey, hey !
it took all the strength I had not to fall apart,
There was just apples and 1 carrot in my shopping cart,
And I spent hours walking round just feeling sorry for myself,
The empty store, with boxes strewn across the floor
And you’ll see me, somebody who,
Cannot buy anything she came for, and it’s all down to fecking you
And frickin Reg from down the road is such a selfish blimmin git
Because he stockpiled all the loo roll so nobody else can have a s@*t !
Go on now go, walk out the door !
All you bloody stockpilers,
You are not welcome any more!
Weren’t you ones who just bought all the sodding cakes
Can’t you make a crumble,
Do you people not know how to bake ?
Oh no not I, I won’t panic buy !
Oh as long as I have alcohol, I know I’ll stay alive,
Though I can’t buy my usual cheese
This will not bring me to my knees
And I’ll survive, I will survive !

No my days of randiness are long over. You stay safe too Alan.

That reminds me of a friend who had two dachshunds, one of each sex, I asked if she was worried about interbreeding.She said not at all, when the b itch is on heat I put her upstairs. How does that stop him I asked? She said have you ever seen a dachshund with a hard on trying to climb stairs.

Are you allowed down for food?

Henry_b · Mar 28, 2020

Mine is running fine it's the D2 giving grief..

mikieman · Mar 28, 2020

Here in the Midwest USA
A few weeks ago the shelves we’re totally
Filled..., plenty for everyone and in one day
Everywhere they cleaned the shelves dry
... every ramin noodle every pack of toilet paper and paper towel.... crazy .. crazy
Now most food is back
But when t.p. Shows up it is gone in like a second ....
But on the good side I get to drive the rover
To the store... and it is always the only one

No need to go down unless i fancy sitting on the patio. The maid brings food up from the kitchen. But don't tell the boss i said that.

Trickle charger on.
Tyres are full of air...
Keep safe everyone.

We now have perfect conditions for Range Rover ownership. Nobody allowed out, a parked Range Rover is, mostly, a reliable Range Rover unless there is a battery drain

I have only gone and fixed my RR gearbox! That's the only problem with being stuck at home..... all problems fixed and I can't bloody go anywhere! To add to it fuel prices are dropping like a stone... already £1.02 a litre near me and I wouldn't be surprised if they drop to low 90s.
