So I fixed my brakes yesterday, over a few weeks I have replaced all callipers, guide pins, discs and pads and after a ridiculously complex brake bleed she is now working and stopping like a dream!

Well, I say working.

On the way home the drivers outside door pull broke and just pulls too far out, the tailgate won’t open, no sound or life at all from the button as if it is locked, and the passenger side window winds down - but not up - so I now have a half open window that I cannot close just as the weather gets biblical again!

Looking forward to green laning next weekend IF I can fix my door and window woes before then.

Will nothing just stay working for a few weeks? Give me a bloody break!

So if anyone asks should they buy a P38.....

If you don’t fix your LR your wife may be able to afford shoes.

I'm lucky with mine, she loves the brand as much as I do - and is willing to slum it on cold beans on toast as necessary!

I did a thread ages ago totally up my first years cost with my previous L322 - I think it was around £5k - fuel included that is....
