And taking on for decent money.Ā My mate has just gone there contracting on a really good rate, reckons it's flat out.Ā I think it's just because the average JLR owner only needs it to work for 3 years then bins it off for a new one.Ā The only exception I can see being the new style Landy Defender as utilitarian type vehicles seem to be kept a lot longer. Seems mechanically very different to the rangey/disco.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pieman Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 I love how absolutely no one has read the original objective of the thread! If it stays on topic I will enjoy this one, because I sometimes love spotting people who claim to be petrolheads and car enthusiasts but have clearly got everything they spout from Clarkson.

Split_Pin Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 The only funny motoring memes are by those who own an example of the carĀ and post it on relevant pages. The old Clio Sport Facebook pages were pretty good for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
