@Kaz Seriously? Politics? Please don't tell me you're a Maggat...

At least there was no talk of sharks, electrocution, or Hannibal Lecter - all of which make as much sense in this forum as they do coming from the orange idiot in the context of what he's trying to talk about.

Blimey! Shocked I think thats obsessive but your choice Thumbs Up . I've never done anything other than manufacturers changes. I keep my cars well into high mileages, usually 150,000 +

Since 2005 they have all been Discovery 3 / 4 (other than a XC90). One I sold at 231,000 miles and is still going strong as are all the others. My defender is currently on 34,000 miles in 18 months. If I keep it then it will be on the same basis.

Anyway, horses for courses. Thumbs Up


Hey, if that works for you, more power to you. 34K mi in a year and a half is more than average. I'm at 125K in 28 months as of this morning on today's daily driver, a 22 F150 Tremor. I only drive it to church and back... or some such thing. Rolling Eyes

The same can be said by here, my LR D3 TDV6 left for its second owner with 400,000 km with the original engine, never 1€ was spent on an extra oil change, always 24,000 km or 1 year…in those 18 years of ownership, many colleagues here, infected by the “worried LR” virus, I saw their oils changed at 12,000 or 6 months…and many of them saw their engine die at an early age…others did not…I always followed the instructions given to me by the car dictated by the manufacturer LR, that is, surely everything is part of a design plan motivated by spurious and unspeakable interests…within a great malevolent world plan…that without a doubt!!


Kamala? Kamala Harris? Shocked

Sorry, for a second there, I thought you were Kamala, what with that word salad you spewed out, at the end. Rolling with laughter

If you want to follow the manufacturer's recommendations, feel free to do so. I ask you forgive me for not jumping on the 24K km oil change intervals on some anecdotal evidence you provided, and just because you say it works for you. On one vehiclle.[/quote]

Attack? So, just because I poked some friendly fun at his word salad, in your book, that's "attacking" someone? Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter That's rich.

Dude, grow a thicker layer of skin.
Incidentally, English in my fourth language. And while my couch is nice, I have to work extra hard so my Gub'mint can send more of my tax money to your elites in the form of "aid".

Ahhh, but that's where you wrong, grasshopper. My vote count!

Oh, and I'd be careful about what I post here. The treasonous, lying sack'o poo is def not very popular outside of the US. You won't be making friends. And just think, his popularity is headed in the same direction within the US too. Thumbs Up

PS I take pretense to the implication about the French. Kazimir. Could be of Russian descent. Is that where the bias comes from? If so, you'll be on the losing team there too. You keep eating your freedom fries and drinking the Kool-Aid Laughing

Here's a little hint for you as your local gub'mint apparently didn't put enough tax money into the school system when you were knee high to a cockroach: the "Bath" under Moo's signature does not mean he's in the tub. And the Ukranian flag under his signature is there as a symbolic gesture.

@Moo, be careful! Not only can he be a vicious tw@t in 5 languages, he'll vote to cut off all US aid to the UK. Oh wait, only to your "elites". So the House of Lords will cease to exist due to mass bankruptcy. Whistle

I think there is an arrogant and provocative speech here that comes from only one of the parties, and that makes me feel things that I don't like at all... so I'm leaving this pseudo-conversation with trigger-happy cowboys and my word salad in the manner of, who I hope and trust will be, the next president of the USA, because there are things in this life that aren't even worth reading, and to the challenge of normal people, who are the majority here, I want to thank them for their understanding, tolerant and kind gestures. I'll see you at other intellectually more interesting times, take care of yourselves and have a happy week... to almost all of you... and to those who don't like my English,to hell with them, put up with it, I'm doing the best I can and I'll continue like this, until the owner of this website decides otherwise!

I'm counting on it, my friend Laughing , although you would have to make an effort if there was a forum as good as these LR in Spanish. I like it in English, they are all great in general and it makes me grow, although they criticize me sometimes. Thanks.

Ok, now that I have some down time, let's get into some actual replies.

OK. If you say so. I mean, why not. He'd probalny make a hugely terrible President. If his last tenure is an indication of his possible next tenure, he'll probably start a bunch of wars, leave billions of dollars on the table by abandoning long standing theatres of war, like Afghanistan as well as handing over bases all over the world, like in Niger.
Perhaps he'll blowup some pipelines to make sure Germany doesn't kneel down to Russia to keep it's citizens warm and its' economy going full bore, and he'd definitely crash the US economy... oh wait. He didn't do any of those things. I must be thinking about some other old, senile president. My apologies.

Yes, that's it. Just because someone has a name that sounds Russian, you automatically assume "OOOH! Russian! Russian has bias!". Why don't you ask google about the origin of the name "Kazimir" as well as its' meaning. Hell, you might even be smart enough to comprehend what the meaning means, even more-so as it applies to this very thread. I have faith in you, even if you are from Strasbpurg. While freedom fries are tasty and all, I'm more of a carnivore diet kinda guy. Dead animal flesh is much tastier than some potato.

Yup. 5th language. Again, since you're so smart, why don't you ask Google about the spelling. I'm out of crayons to explain it in a way you'd understand.

Silly me, I thought schooling in the US was dictated by the Federal Government, under the auspice of the US Department of Education. Not so much of a "local" thing. Again... Google.

As far as the flag being a symbolic gesture... Cool story. I have family in Fareham that I visit occasionally. Only a short jaunt from Bath. Never been to StrasbPurg, though. Nice place? Good education system? Asking for a friend.

Gotta love everyone who symbolically "supports" something. Kind of like all of the "Sanctuary cities" in the US. "Let the... "what do they call them nowadays? "Newcomers" (I call them illegals), "come here, we'll welcome them!!!"... until they do go there, and all of the sudden, the illegals are not exactly welcome. Anyone remember the fiasco in Martha's Vineyard, earlier this year? I symbolically support idiots, but doesn't mean I want to be like them, around them, or be in the trenches with them, or to help them. No, not calling you an idiot, just making a point.

If it were solely up to me, Ukraine would have had no funding from the US whatsoever. Alas, this is a more complicated issue than just some "funding". But I don't expect you to understand how deep the rabbit hole goes beyond the surface of London. Perhaps one day you will understand and remember what that one guy on those forums once alluded to. Perhaps you won't ever understand. Can't help you with that issue, unfortunately.

I don't need to be a friend of yours, and you most certainly don't want to be a friend of mine.

And to those who have no sense of humor... I won't wish them time in hell, because I'm not an angry or spiteful little man like some can be. I genuinely hope they eventually start to understand humor. They'll likely lead happier lives.

Your effort is commendable. Like you, I learned other languages as necessary, in order to be a respectful guest when abroad. Way too many people expect things to be catered in their own native language, when interacting with people abroad in a longer term situation, who speak a totally different language. They don't want to adapt and integrate by using the natively used language of the place they've visiting, be it in real life, or on the Internet.

As far as "criticizing", again, small minds. Now, a bit of friendly fun at some of the things those people say? Well, if you consider all of it "criticism", then you Sir, should take it with a grain of salt.

Either way, off to another fun filled day slaving away. Hope everyone takes a deep breath and learns to not take everything on the internet so seriously.  Longer, happier lives, and all that jive.

I like Republicans in the US, that includes President Trump.

So those who feel they are speaking for others as a country, always remember democracy prevails.

We don’t all like results, or all politicians but the facts remain.

Let’s not argue. Idea (it’s fine to agree or disagree).

France and Ukraine wouldn’t even exist post war if it wasn’t for the U.K., USA & Russia.

There are a lot of groups out there that are anti male as well, so just do remember that politically.
I’d rather politicians that are for everyone in their own country that was born there, not just for a side of society such as nationality outside of a country or gender.

It seems like there is little that isn’t under attack these days, we will be heading towards a Police state soon where you’ll need a licence to go outside especially if you are a man.
(Already suggested a couple of years ago by some). Shocked
Just remember who and which side are pushing these narratives.

Let’s live and let live, we all have our likes and dislikes.
It’s just a shame that a few people do like to be discriminative and activist like.

Hopefully no more arguing or Martin will close the thread, with good reason.


We can stick to discussing Defenders. Very Happy

Agree with your whole post. There is only one entity/group that's pushing both sides of the narrative. When you realize who that group is, you likely won't bee too surprised.
