Let's see. This poster (a) has occasional mis-spelling, no space after full stop, uses European-style period (.) instead of comma in numbers, slags off Landrovers. Goran a) has occasional mis-spelling, no space after full stop, uses European-style period (.) instead of comma in numbers, slags off Landrovers. Nice one, troll.

Funny, Antonio asking about Lancruisers vs Landrovers writes in a similar style. Surely no conincidence.

Stephen,are you suggesting that i have something to do with this?
Mate,i have always posted here using my own name and my own address. I dont slag Landrovers. I just expressed the facts. Do you want me to say it again?
Landrovers are unreliable 4x4's. What you are suggesting is only in your head.If you love Landrovers, have them. Who cares.There are more interesting topics here than this.

“Landrovers are unreliable.” Every single LandRover is unreliable? Oh right. I think this must be in your opinion Goran because as stated before, it is definitely not fact!

Pity about that, you must have the only TD5 ever made with a timing belt. All the others have a chain.???

Look, i dont know if it was the belt or a bloody chain but it snapped and now it is going to cost me a major inconvenience. How can this happen to a new vehicle?

How can this happen to a new vehicle?..
easy, change the question a tad, to read..how can this happen to a landy/rangie..then pick any of a million answers, and you would be right.
But I don't think anyone believes your thread!!
Now..back to servicing the Skoda, cya.

There is an old saying involving anvils and rubber hammers.
Anyone who can wreck any vehicle with only 20,000 klm on the clock
should know about it.

I don't think anyone suggests that ALL Landrovers have problems. The fact is that the fault rate in Landrovers is much higher than in most other vehicles. They are also more likely to get bogged. On a recent Simpson Desert trip we saw 4 stranded vehicles - all Landrovers. The only vehicle full of dust - Landrover - the only vehicle to break down (twice) in our group - the Landrover - and many others have similar stories to tell!! It's not a coincidence folks it really happens. Another common failing is oil leaks - check out any disco more than a year old and you'll find very oily engine bays in many - not all - but many!!
But despite that many people love them and I compare that devotion to a person who stays with a partner who cheats/beats/lies etc
