    So again agreement - more stuff local....
    Problem is being competitive and on quality in our country.
    I'm sure they can, and if nothing else Xrox are local to WA, competitive, and are making stuff for LR's as well as Toyoyta's and Nissan's. Just the same as ARB and TJM do it for all brands. Whether we think its just pretty or functional is irrelevant. We have to face the fact that we are a minority and ****ing off the local retailer is not going to help our cause.

    BTW I'm sure if you spent enough time in your shed you could come with somthing suitably attractive.

    No - he is quite correct...

    If you two keep up this pointless bickering in here expect the mods to come down on you.

    So as Kev asked.... play nice or

    Guys, as I started this thread I wont moderate it. The mod for this section can make deletions etc. I dont think it should be closed, but maybe some of the comments deleted.
    Some of you dont like responding to ignorant slurs against LR and that is fine, just dont get involved then, that easy. I get sick of stupid comments and have not slagged off other owners as much as I would like to. What I will put right is their ignorance as if we dont it will go on and on. What irked me the most is a retailer was slagging off their customers, joke or not enough is enough, Funny the same comments whether true or not about Toyota or Nissan reliability are not posted. Sorry but I will give it back to the ill informed, arrogant and just wrong comments about LRs.
    HastyKiwi and Tombie, I know you guys are only taking the mickey out of each other, but be careful as some of it is borderline for this forum.

    hmmmmmmmmmm

    must be coming up to the silly season?

    tombie and hastykiwi your task for the day is to work out the meaning of the word "[ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decorum"]Decorum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame]" and absorb it

    hope you get to the bottom of it...

    I would of thought the name / shame ruling would have wiped this thread long before.

    The comments posted by members in the Facebook thread get down right into it

    But the funniest quote about Decorum...


    "My masters, are you mad, or what are you? < This bit must be referring to Mods and Owner Have you no wit, manners nor honesty, but to gabble like tinkers at this time of night? <That bit must be me and Kiwi ...Is there no respect of persons, place nor time in you?" <Plenty... But I like to have a good Roasting as well

    This thread is so convoluted now it resembles a Government Policy Document
