I like Rolls Royce,but I didn't buy it.

I did not say the raw goods were grown here,the same as the plastic in the door trims,etc in a land rover or indeed any other car are British (all come from oil,but not British oil).This applies to just about anything.

The above may be assembled in GB,but unfortunately 90% of the parts are still imported.It is not possible to buy a UK manufactured item any more (unless you want a loaf of bread or some cigarettes),both are full of crap.It's a pity that it has come to this,but who do you blame.

Sounds like my motoring history as well.

It's because they can't spell,like you.

Only thing is,if you bought a double edged sword from land rover it would be blunt and they would charge you to sharpen it.

This is that flypaper bloke replying to Blob's post.I might be wrong m8y,but I would check your facts about BMW designing the Freeklander.I was always under the illusion that Land Rover designed this heap before BMW came along.Still that's not to say BMW's are not crap as well.

Ask the greedy shareholders if they condone their greedy company charging extortionate prices for parts,etc (I bet they do).How can anyone justify over £700 for a piece of metal and rubber that couldn't cost more than a tenner to make.I am of course referring to the Viscous coupling,which is...

I don't call 30 grand a year for a mechanic a great wage.That equates to about £430 take home money per week.......crap.I bet the greedy franchise owner don't work for that sort of money,more like sits on his fat,lazy,jacksy doing sweet fanny adams.The problem with this country is...

I was not referring to the Army's Land Rover's m8.In fact it was the Range Rover's and Land Rover's belonging to company's like ITN and the BBC.They were the laughing stock amongst other reporting teams in the Gulf.I cannot understand why people are so quick to jump to the defence of something...

Sorry about that,I didn't realise the word Freelander was swearing.

Don't have to m8y,the BBC and ITN have already done this during the Gulf war.......plenty of proof there I would have thought,but then again they might be pulling everyones plonkers.Try looking on their respective websites and I am quite sure you will find what you are looking for after all it...

Do you own British TV by any chance..........:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Fraid not m8y,try something beginning with JEEP.:D:D:D:D:D:D

Don't you like proper 4 wheel drives.At least Jeeps are genuine 4 wheel drives unlike some rubbish I can mention.

A totally unfair reputation I might add.Most problems with these cars are indeed the fault of the idiots that drive them.I would assume that you are referring to the codswallop about the back axle,which is almost always because the owner or garage do not change the oil regularly.I have owned a...

Ah well,at least I unloaded the bucket of crap onto a Freelander goon.......back to decent motors....Cherokees,Wranglers,etc

Think yourself lucky you ain't got a V6

Not forgetting of course that Sony at least admit that there is a problem with their products,unlike Land Rover, who have constantly denied that the Freelander is a faulty,badly designed car.They should at least have the decency to admit their failings.

Maybe,but that does not apply to every one they make.Sony have just had 7 million laptop batteries recalled as well,must be a lot of computer nerds out there with no juice for their lappies.
