Make sure you warm it up before you drive it and push the clutch in before you start it and fillter your deasel and ect ect. Land Rover please Get the product up to scratch before you blow your trumpet. So close. Maybe a fix soon?

Yeah - got my invite for Riverside Oaks in about a weeks time (in North Western Sydney) today.

I'd go, but my 6 week old Puma still has technicians scratching their heads over whats wrong, and it probably won't be back on the road by then (parts are out of stock in England for one problem, but they don't know what the other error code from the computer means !!!...)

Maybe I should go, and take the ****ty hire car I have begged out of them with me...

(Sorry, I am a bit upset with LR Aust..)

I've decided to go to this, it seems like a good afternoon out. I'll book tomorrow.

I understand that the Puma has definitely had its share of issues and I'll see if I can get some honest response from LR regarding what owners are experiencing.

you will get good responses...as the owners with the problems get filtered straight to the Indian call centre.

Its only 5034 Km from here almost as far away as the closest useful dealer.
Must admit I just drove 2500 Km to the closest competent Land Rover Specialist this week. ( thanks to Whyatts in Geraldton well worth the trip)
Were Back is a stupid statement there was better dealer coverage in the 1960s.
A sad state of affairs for one of the best products made

Yes - and perhaps it's just coincidence - but if you do these simple things, perhaps some of the issues can be avoided.

I received one as well, but will be driving back from Grafton on Tuesday(Groan) I would have driven down from Mudgee to go as there are so many questions to ask and I want to crawl over a 130 crew cab. Any info placed here from anyone who does go will be most welcome. I like the 110 ute back also, but wonder just how much room is in the tub (with mudguards and spare?).
