I fixed it Mike. Because I wasn't doing the swearing I didn't think twice, especially given we are adults. It's an issue where if he is correct, it's an issue that members need to be aware of. But yes he swears like a trooper. Funny in smaller doses too and he does get his message across.

Cheers

Not all of us like foul language - I certainly don't.

If he was serious he would do a piece about how our low fuel standards are causing problems for all car brands, not just Toyota, and contributing to about 1700 respiratory deaths a year, but this won't be fixed before July 1, 2027, which is when the federal government has delayed our move to the best practice international fuel standards.
But he's just a foul-mouthed entertainer...

I understand. But no one has to watch it. If you don't know him and start and hear a word that is offensive you can turn it off.

That is the worst oil analysis by a huge margin, I have ever seen. I would not touch one of these engines.

Someone found Cadogan's video entertaining on that thread. 380 pages on the discussion thread about oil dilution and shorter service intervals due to it. Seems like this is an issue. Good to see JC getting stuck in. Cheers.

No need to reward being a total ****** though.
He could easily get his message across without being a total feral.

Just an angry little useless man that does nothing but put down everything whilst attempting nothing. He contributes nothing but carbon emissions.

Generally, I like his videos. I think many of those who complain about him don't have his knowledge.

Of course, we all get offended when he's negative about something we like or drive. That's quite normal. But if you think about it, he's probably right.

We know JLRA doesn't have a good reputation for customer satisfaction - I've only had one dealing with them and it left a bad taste in my mouth. Unfortunately, we don't have a LR customer service rep on the forum - unlike the FullFatRR forum.

I like most of his videos. Like his style or not he does actually understand the material he discusses which is a lot more than can be said for most motoring Journalists these days.

I saw this video last week. I like his one on jeeps, although it was mostly about 2 or 3 horror stories, he pretty-well tarred the whole brand with the same brush.
He is making generalisations about land Rovers based on a few bad experiences from service centres on a particular model. Considering the new defender is coming here this year, it is a pretty broad claim to state that all Land Rovers in 2020 will be rubbish.
At best this guy can be mildly entertaining, mostly though, he is fairly annoying. I think he is the only one who considers him and "expert" on anything.
