England 2013 Range Rover Autobiography SDV8 Luxor
My new hobby!

It is of course the RR I have just bought. All my company cars over the last 15 years have been of the boring German variety and I had to have nothing done while I had them, they were extremely well put together and reliable and when I gave them back after 3 or 4 years they we in pretty much the same condition as when I got them - but with the addition of 100k+ miles.

Enter the TDV8, retirement present to myself!
Only 5 years old, only 47k miles but a constant source of entertainment.
Side step don't fit properly on drivers side
Tailgate lock loose.
Inner wheel liner doesn't fit properly - both sides.
Wing mirror glass fell out.
Needed new carpet.
Needed new wipers
Needed Bluetooth upgrade
Needed GPS Maps upgrade
Doesn't sit level
Bonnet full of stone chips.
Chav chrome wing mirrors covers need to come off
Leather seats need some TLC
Wheels out of balance
list goes on...............................but it's great I might have been bored otherwise Very Happy

No chance of getting bored as I find something new needs attention on an almost daily basis and I've only had it a month.
Happy Days. Geoff

Not sure how many of those things you could put down to it being in an accident?


I don't think I've ever had mine for a week where everything's been working all at the same time, or no spurious error messages etc.
