Yes, you may well sit there waiting patiently in the greatest of anticipations, EVER.  scared2:

This is a very critical matter, believe me.

If it's the TD4 diesel, then he's laffin'....well not much, but better than crying if it's the dreaded 1.8 petrol.
He wouldn't be so stoopid to buy that model, really. noooo:

Thank the Lord!! happy088

I don't know anyone who's had the petrol that hasn't regretted it.  noooo:
The Land Rover forums are absolutely bursting with tales of woe and horrendous expenses trying to keep them running.
The whole lot should have been re-called and scrapped.
Totally shameful, but as is usual with big manuafacturers, they just deny all responsibilty and laugh in your face. Finger:
