Must admit I pull out of a side street and turn right into a busy main road evey time I leave the house, and first thing in the morning you have to spot a gap that's at least three times longer than the gap I would go for later in the day.
normally she pulls out like a scalded cat (OK a two ton scalded cat with a diesel engine), just sometimes at the first junction she doesn't want to play, and no-one wants to gamble with thier pride and joy. So I awlays treat the first junction of the day with caution. Second junction (traffic lights) is less than a mile away, and she has never hesitated at this junction, and trust me by this junction the engine and gearbox are still cold.
It feels as if she is setting off in second, foot planted firmly into carpet, but she doesn't rev, just pulls out slower than normal, no fuss, no suggestion of misfire, similar to leaving her in snow mode.
It's not a problem, it's a LR they are individuals, mine doesn't like mornings, she starts easily, just doesn't want to go to work. Tangiers Orange - gone, missing her
