| Car back yesterday using a part 'robbed' from the production line. Dealer said he'd not heard of this fault before which was why it took just over a week to find the spare! Never been convinced by ' ... |

I'm already getting lots of 'told you so!' remarks from those who advised against a Freelander in the first place.
