Am I unreasonable ?

I hate to say it, but for me in South East Qld I doubt I would ever buy another Rover....such is my experience with in warranty servicing here now that Blue Ribbon Motors at Yamanto handed back their sign...I would have to go with Mitsu Pajero that they sell and service. Its not the same (ability on and off road) as a D3/D4 but its not that far off. It does not have the feel of a Rover, but I can live with that I reckon, because it will rarely have problems and the service if it does will be fantastic. Having said that I cannot see giving up my 02 manual (I like changing gears myself). I would prefer to keep the 02 and one day stick in a 4.6 (when the 4.0 has given up...so a long way away) and get a small sedan for around town.

Cheers

New franchise manager is giving licenses to others to do warranty work as dealers are thin on the ground.:D
Ring LR and ask about other service centres.
Previous manager just removed some of the useless dealers.

so what is your problem, you knew about Land Rover after care was crap but you bought a Land Rover all the same, just enjoy the experience and think of England

Not totally true really .......

Service is product , parts availability , importer standard and
employee quality . An ineffectual person can make any fault into a
problem. It's no different in medicine , law , travel , finance , building
construction ....... etc. LRA are as useless as many other marques'
importers when pressed . Anything from France or Italy is no different an
experience for its owner .

Try getting Toyota part. They won't air ship. :angel:

This is what I fear as I am looking at the D4. My wife and I looked at the D4/Freelander on Friday, and the sales has gone out to lunch. No one has got back to us yet. I know it is only Friday, but I would have a call back from most sales I deal with in that afternoon.

I like to buy local, but might have to consider elsewhere.

Guy may well have not been informed . This has happened to me in
other LR dealerships and other Marques too . No better in RealEstate
, electronics repairs , blah , blah . Phone and speak to the organ grinder ,
not the monkey. I don't leave messages anymore .

Hi sparoz,
Thats the same salesman I rang about my problem ,said he'd check it out and get back to me, over a week ago now, I just thought he lost interest after the cheque cleared. (I had bought 2 discos in 3 yrs of him.)
Don't hold ta breath waiting.
Cheers Ken
