trenchfoot 4,243 Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 We have had one for 7 years and 70,000 miles. Towed stock traillers, awful weather, rough tracks, on shoots. Never missed a beat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shepp 2,285 Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 I have a 09 plate commercial version. Done 112,000 miles, still nice and solid, no rattles. Good performance, sure footed and is great for eating up miles on motorways. The mechanic I use is a Landrover independent and he said it is one of the best models produced by Landrover. Tried and tested Ford 2.2 diesel engine. I think it's a good motor and I plan to keep mine for some time. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
