Ironically chaps at the garage only sprayed that quarter last year...... when there was a small patch of rust! So at least they can get a good colour match. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

It's one of those things I suppose. I'd be absolutely gutted if it was me but at least it's fixable.

I backed my bmw into the Mrs' s freelander a couple of years back. Parking sensors were going mad and I still hit it as I was talking to someone whilst reversing the car off the drive!

Luckily it only rubbed the paint off the side of the bumper and I know a really good chips away chap so it was a quick £60 fix.

Needs a good wash though. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

all back from eh paint shop and shiny and clean too!!!!

According to the book it is due a service in February! So id better start thinking about that now! I think the Local LR garage are booking 3 months in advance or something stupid.

I would ask the group feelings on self servicing the car and value but I know what they are and have been done to death. FLRSH will probably be fine, but FSH will also be pretty much OK, trouble is I don't trust my local spanner man to service it properly he's fine with vans etc (but then again I dont trust the LR dealer to service it properly) but range rovers........

When I gave him my disco to swap the HP pump it came back with a fuel leak! There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Have done that twice on previous cars... sticky out something in the wrong place..

Shocked by the fact the cluster had to be replaced and couldn’t just buy the plastic glass.

Spoke to a friend post the event/replacement

HE reackoned he could replace the Perspex , bent to shape & seal as a business for a £100.00 - might drill a drain hole if needed.

DIY for 25 QUIDISH...?????? Just saying.

Bill Filters are in fact so good that in certain circumstances, when the ambient air is already polluted, a diesel car will tend to extract more particles from the air than it emits. Emissions Analytics worked with........etc etc

some of the inside bits were broke too, so it did need a whole cluster, the way the edges are chamfered etc I think it would be quite tricky to get it looking nob on. Thumbs Up Thumbs Up There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

I’ve not posted up on this thread for a while. This is Co’s nothing much has been happening!

I’ve still not got to the bottom of the brake pedal firming up, even though I’ve changed the NRV and grommet.

She’s due a service, but has only done a few thousand miles this year so can get done when I’ve got a min. I have the oil and filters under the desk ready, it’s just finding the time.

She has been called into service with the house moving seats down proved plenty big enough to cram loads of boxes in. As for the moment we are only just moving 50 yds it’s was a simple matter of backing up to the door of the old house chucking stuff in and reversing to the temporary house.

Have discovered I have too many wheels. I need to rationalise!! But they all have a purpose! There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜
