    At my place we have a double bay garage, I have the series V8 landie and my house mate has a toyota corolla.

    It was so typical, you could tell which side belonged to the landie because there is cardboard everywhere which is practically black with oil! And the corolla was spotless... Until recently .

    I've started to notice some small drops of oil on the concrete, I think i'm going to have to recommend the cardboard treatment to him .

    Thought a Double Bay garage had the Range Rover on one side for wet days and the Mercedes convertible for sunny days.

    A love/hate relationship? Not so strange. It's just another way that, I believe, a good Land Rover's just like a good woman...

    Thats just the way things are. Italian bikes are the same. They are raw and unfinished, suffer the same unreliability probs but when everything goes right, woo hoo. Similar story to the women I have known.
    It seems we need the frustrations to stir up the emotions, that is what creates the soul and the passion. Then when everything goes ok it seems all that more special. Who hangs around with a woman who agrees with everything, never rocks the boat, is too easily to please and basically doesn't give you any trouble? We all say we want it, but when we do we get bored pretty quick and move on. So it's just a test wannalandy to bring the 2 of you closer together.

    Thats how you learn about your vehicle. By changing every single part in it 3 times. Bet a toyota driver doesn't have that knowledge

    the tojo driver probably has more time to sit around having beers with his mates & spends less time cleaning the garage floor

    cheers

    It's all about perspective. Light can't exist without dark to compare it too. The same with your Landy. If nothing ever went wrong you wouldn't appreciate the times when things are going right.

    Besides it's just like Col. Coleman said:
