United Kingdom 2007 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.2 SC V8 Zambezi Silver

Iโ€™ve often had 2 cars but went back to 1 for a few years. Not long after getting my RR I decided to get another daily and Iโ€™m glad I have. Means the RR can get waxed and polished without moving and getting dirty.

If I just owned the Toyota I wouldn't have a back up for that.
1000% faith in that one.

Japanese eh?
There must be some simple principles to achieving the reliability they do.
Do they just torture test more?

Perhaps they just build them properly?
I have no experience of JLR manufacturing plants but seeing the way that they (don't) manage the sales and customer service side of the business I have no reason to think that the manufacturing side of things is any better controlled.

No spare. And never stranded. Thereโ€™s always the bus in London so not a huge risk!

Back up spare is my Freelander 2 although I tend to use both just to keep batteries topped up etc. Living out in a rural area with only 4 buses a day means having a spare car is an essential rather than a luxury
