I think I'm in the same boat: first breakdown in 13 years of ownership!

Pedal went to the floor while I was on the highway, managed to coast to a safe stop.

checking clutch fluid colour is a worthwhile maintenance task, my new LOF clutch master failed after 6 months fluid drips on my feet, fluid had turned black I assume as the seal degraded DEFENDER 90 TDCI XS,

I hope everyone is well and your land rovers make you happy

Same thing happened to me, a few months after installing the LOF Power Master it started to leak into the cabin again. Apparently it was a first generation unit or something like that. Coordinated with Luke and he said he'll send me the latest version with my next order. Same for the LOF clutch spring which snapped not long after I replaced the clutch master cylinder, again first gen version that will be replaced with my next order.
