      I would've given him 3 grand straight away. Just parting out the seats,rims and the Brembos will get my money back. All the rest is profit. It's beyond any logic why anyone would sell his Range for the same price as his last service,when he can easily get half grand only for them wheels!

      NOT bollocks mate, have the evidence to prove it, I have two relatives that work in the engineering department of Land Rover, they say that JLR use the cheapest outsourced parts possible to build their cars, its these parts that fail, I have know of several people here locally whom have handed their vehicles back to the dealers for a refund because they had nothing but one issue after another and they haved over to other brand 4x4........so NOT BOLLOCKS!

Continue this process, and I will follow up on commenting / asking! Thanks for a great start on this engine!

    Have only recently subscribed, but love how you actually love fixing these vehicles rather than taking the easy way out and breaking them down for parts. I'm in NZ, and many of these cars still cost a fortune, not only to buy if you can find them, but servicing & parts as well. I'm jealous of what's available in the UK & USA car markets. You do a great job & the cars look great when repaired.

      Yes and when they are not running they become a beautiful piece of "installation" artwork that can often sit on your driveway for years because a garage fix is fantasy money but they are "too nice to scrap". Its a flip car if you can get it running and a slow drip parts dismantle if you can't. Same story for any 10yr+ luxury car
      The only saving grace of having a broken RR in your driveway is that you are saving hundreds of pounds in Road Tax and Fuel the longer it sits there !
      Having to lift the cab off the chassis means that it's only those with ramps that can tackle these when they need a new gearbox or lump.
