Well all the Miele I've had and incidently my sister has had too, have lasted.

I grant you none of the stuff I've had is more than 4 years old and still covered by warranty, think the washing machine is a 10 year warranty, but i've never had to call them out. I did have a NEFF oven and indiction hob, but changed that to Miele as they did a rather nice shaped one. My sister swears by their steam oven, she cooks everything by that, a bit of a health thing, not sure I'd go down that route, you need some fat.

Whats with all this talk of 'white goods'? Do I have to remind you of the thred - are FL2 drivers all women ???  Freelander 2 TD4 Auto, SE, Narvik Black, Alpaca full leather, Rear Headrest Entertainment System, 6 CD, 18 HSE Wheels, Privicy tints

Since picking up our SD4 last week I've now caught a cold (this in the Australian Summer!) on our first road trip with it, bloody Land Rovers! I mean, the vehicle has thus far been fantastic, but how am I supposed to enjoy it when there is no tissue dispenser in the vehicle (if only LR hadn't provided the free Garmin nicely installed in the dash cubby, I might have been able to squeeze a box of kleenex in there...)  11MY SE SD4 in Lago Grey just arrived with a free Garmin thrown in! This could be the start of a beautiful relationship (I'm an eternal optimist, and former FL1 owner)!

The OP started it off with white goods breaking down amoungst other things, so it's hardly off topic.

And it's in the 'off topic' forum anyway.  For a free country, it does seem pretty expensive these days.

white goods HUH !!!!pathetic.!!!!..

I have a seroius problem Post purchase of a LAND ROVER.....type 2 diabetis.... confirmed by my Dr..... and the practice nurse actualy told ME I should loose weight !!!! .......she can talk!!! you should see the size of her ...she couldnt fit in clothes from Evans !!! and shes telling me to lose weight !!

Weirdfish
It took me a while but I've got it.... Not the 9 o'clock news with Pam Stephenson and the crew taking the micky out of a 'That's Life' sketch, where a viewer had written in blaming everything on their local electricity board
That is of course .....unless you know different (Or are too young to remember it )

After three weeks of SD4 ownership and yes I to have had problems, the water softener blocked up and that relieved me of £400, then the power supply on the house security went down and managed to get that repaired a lot cheaper than the installers wanted.

No problem with white goods though but more with the white goods operator, I received today a letter from the local tax collecting agency with a fixed speeding penalty in it, I was not driver but the white goods operator was, but it seems it was my fault that she got caught, if I hadn't bought a SD4 I was told it wouldn't have happened  p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior

You see. Bloody Land Rover.

You never get these problems with other marques  For a free country, it does seem pretty expensive these days.

Your Landrover causing me problems now

Had some chaps round last weekend to fix a leak which meant removing a conservatory roof panel, this came loose in today's high winds and blew out, luckily no car was passing as it, blew 12' over the rest of the conservatory over the hedge, path and into the middle of the road

Managed to get it back and in, in one piece but it's not 100% so had to use half a role of gaffer tape, but for obvious reason I couldn't get to the ridge cover to replace that

Now I think about it maybe that explains my (her) broken oven at xmas - like you say landrover has a lot to own up to! Freelander 2 TD4 Auto, SE, Narvik Black, Alpaca full leather, Rear Headrest Entertainment System, 6 CD, 18 HSE Wheels, Privicy tints
