						SubscriberI see that JLR lost a court case a few days ago and were ordered to refund purchase price of RR plus interest - $283000. Women is now going after her legal fees which were 130 k. But JLR didn’t come out of the case well.
And it’s set a precedent. Worth looking at in how she kept records etc etc.

There would be a whole lot more across the makes but I believe out of court settlement restrict the claimant disclosing anything
Yes, you normally have to sign a piece of paper stating you will not do or say anything toward the company involved or you are liable to be sued for any loss osf sales.
That was my case in truck dispute.
Yes, John Cadogan (autoexpert) did a piece on that a few days ago. part of what he has to say is correct in that it's great that someone who had the resources to pursue the case did so and thus set a precedent but, his infantile and foul attempts at humour along with his very wide tar brush painting the entire brand as unreliable and useless overshadows any credibility he might have had for the good points he was trying to make. Even his references to the apparent heroine is offensive. At least he left out his usual faux french pronunciations this time.
Sorry about the rant but it's all just a bit too gratuitous.
I can't link to it because it's not appropriate but if you're interested, search youtube for "The Truth About Range Rover Ownership".

						SubscriberI think the point here is that now this is a public case, and a win for the consumer, it puts us as consumers in a stronger position if we have problems. I’m restricted by a confidentiality clause but this isn’t. If we buy consumer goods from anyone then this gives pretty clear guidance on your rights. Hard for any dealer or make of any brand to argue otherwise.

It was mentioned in the first post and I commented in the third post on this thread. I thought his foul rant was full of faux French pronunciations. He is always scathing of Range Rover and Range Rover owners but as we both said, even for him this was bad and had zero credibility in my book.
