Top Gear ...............
Nice to see the Discovery making it to the top of that mountain - its a pity that they spend more time being repaired than going up hills!! :rolleyes:
If LandRover improved their build quality and relaibility they would have a winner Pete |
I wonder how they got it back down again?
|
Its still there, waiting for the AAvan ;)

They probably picked it up by helicopter and delivered it straight to customer no. 1 as per the press shot! "Delivery miles only" ;)

Credit, where credit is due.
It got up there, with only a few hic-ups. I think there was a bit more to it, than what was shown on the film take.:eek: By the way, the new Freelander is a little beastie, you should all go out late next year and buy one........PLEASE. Ive got mouths to feed.:) |
Did anyone else notice that the continuity was crap, first the wheels were filthy, then clean, then filthy again, I reckon they washed it before he got to the top!!

Was very impresive - all those off-road settings will come in soooo useful when it's used for dropping the kids off at school in Putney High St..... :rolleyes:
It will all be wasted of course :D Matt |
mountain? :rolleyes: it was barely 1000ft!
|
you could see the weight taking over the chassis in the twisties. What a pile of poo, thats not progress putting that much weight on. :o
|
Well over 2 tonne!!!
|
Amazing really, and lets hope that quality with Ford is getting better ....
Good show though.... |
I enjoyed the programme, it seems to be getting better now-maybe a slight attitude change somewhere. Always liked Joanna Lumley anyway.

Wasnt it awful ! (the watch)
I think ford have done well with the new Disco. Nice of them to lend Landrover the back end of the mini transit ! LOL |
It was particularly awful - considering it cost 140,000K - I'll say that again incase you missed it - ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY THOUSAND POUNDS!!
omg:( You could buy an Aston Martin Vantage to pop down the shops in for that!! What are they on? - I'd like to see how many they sell....... shakes head..... |
i work for landrover and the new disco is the bollox looks like a transit connect on drugs but its a top motor on and off road.

They're not as bad as you lot think they are these days :p
My other half and myself have 4 between us, the ones used for off-roading just need regular maintenence and my Disco I use everyday has never let me down :) The new disco is an amazing vehicle if you've ever seen one off road you'll be suprised. The build quality of the one I attempted to pull appart last week was amazing, I was very impressed :) I noticed the continuity too, but put it down to the water in the peat bogs....can't really see they'd bother washing a Disco half way up a mountain!! :) |
Awesome vehicle! :)
Was at my local dealers for a test drive last Sat. V8 SE 280 bhp :D - I do like it VERY much. The kids & wife like the interior (but not the back end :( ) Rear row of seats much improved :) - I was hoping to be able to get one in 3/4 yrs time when they are worth 1/3 of the purchase price but according to the dealer LR are limiting production to keep the residuals high :cry: Tried a new Range Rover diesel - Love the looks and the interior but the engine was noisy & sluggish on pull-away :( So might be a Legacy B4 RSK instead :p So life's not all bad ;) Mick :D |

New Dicovery's are amazing, Drive wonderfully and are exceptional off road. Landrovers have only been getting better - There will be no reliabilty problem soon. Peter P.S, I Work for Landrover! |
