Short term fix ?
Evening Fellas,
Just been reminded of my third year service.... And first MOT! Jeez where did all the time go, I have loved and still do everything about this D4 but this is my usual flag to update. I've booked in for service as usual but with the new model just around the corner, swmbo has demanded a new RR sport as short term infil - now I detest the image of these cars with a passion. Anyone got any advice on a positive, no matter how small that I can grasp on to for my year (or less hopefully) away - if not I'll just have to become a hairdresser, have mine and my wife's names embroidered into the headrests and get used to never being let out of a junction again.
Yeh, I know I should grow a pair, but I'm lucky she does not interfere with all my other toys and I know I'll be back soon if landrover get a move on.......................and no it won't be Effing white to match my white jeans and white leather jacket.
Positives ......Anyone ?Discovery 4 HSE LUX Causeway
Never argue with an idiot, they'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Yeti do as you're told!! A happy wife is a happy you, a mildly peeved wife can make your live thoroughly miserable. It's a slippery slope indeed.

How about an F Pace 3.0, it won't have lost much, if anything in 12 months, and then look at things again then.

You will not be disappointed with a new RRS I can assure you.
The new model is worlds apart from the older model and takes it into RRFF teritory.
My father has an FF Autobiography and it is more luxurious but £ for £ id have a RRS unless I had 100K burning a hole in my pocket.
