Very nice Man
Good service from the AA again over the last couple of days.

Not very happy that I've seen more of the AA with this LR than any other car! Dad not happy that on Boxing Day the LR decided that it didn't want its oil and left it all over his driveway Embarassed

Enjoyed the trip home in the auto freelander though Very Happy Kids had to take their shoes off before getting in so not the car for us.

Never had it happen myself,, but sold a friends 58 plate XS, just over 20,000 miles, to a man on Dartmoor, poor chap only had it 3 days, and popped the seal, done 200 miles max since the last LR service !!! WTF !!! California F1, 75th 110 "Kermit", 50th Ann V8, 90 V8 Hybrid, 55 Series 1

If it had been out of warenty I'd have carried on driving it. When the AA looked at it they initially diagnosed the oil seal on the crank so if I drove it 200 miles home it would have been at my own risk with no recovery. Not worth the risk. Also no LR dealers open over the bank holiday weekend. Didn't want to stay at the parents until the local dealers opened Whistle No the other left . . .
