Had a look on the Australian part of the forum. Service charges appear to be about half what the are here even with the strong A$. Why do we just sit back and take it! |

I priced a first service with two different dealers, £316 and £299. Service takes two hours and is just an oil and filter change. This appears to be expensive for all that it is. |

Got fed up trying to get the lid out of the area behind the pipes, so now use some cling film and a rubber band.
LR should do something about this. |

The LR armrests look similar to the armrests in the Ford MPV's VW Sharan etc. Are they any less expensive, they may be available in fabric as well as leather. |
