Gearbox Fault - DO NOT BUY THE 9 Speed Auto

Well, its broken again, transported away from the centre of Portree with exactly the same fault as before.
   
What will the dealers excuse be this time?

Final nails and coffins come to mind Tony

You've hit the 'nail' on the head Tim, by-by Land Rover!.

Reject letter penned and ready to post to dealer principal first thing tomorrow - or when my LR courtesy car turns up!.

No the courtesy car will be a Ford Focus Estate 14 plate to be delivered approx mid day tomorrow.

Doubt the car will go back to the factory, I am just waiting for the BS, excuses and 'get out' clauses.

Makes me wonder what has happened to LRA's statement that they "would provide a Land Rover product or if not available then an equivalent vehicle". I would hardly call a Focus (although a very good vehicle) an equivalent to an Evoque - but then they are hardly going to give you a competitors car are they, you might never take back your broken Land Rover product!

Tim, I don't want back my broken LR product!.

Don't blame you. Did you by any chance borrow any money to buy it as you should involve the lender asap if you did.

No, I am retired blue chip company Communications Manager so had to pay cash.

However it adds to the compo claim headlined in the 'red tops' as "Pensioners left stranded in the wilds of Scotland by poor quality LR products and dealers 'could not care less' attitude!.

How many times is that now?
