I have to say my dealer Farnells Leeds Central and Jules at LRCS have dealt with my faulty rear Diff excellently

Just had a follow up phone from Jules at LRCS who seemed to understand that I've now got a what's going to happen next attitude towards the car, after so many issues with the first

Oh well never mind, I'll just have to look at buying some accessories or something LR with my Good Will Gesture  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Good will gesture - How about seeing if they have a set of 17'' steel wheels with part used tyres ...they will bounce up kerbs (that unexpectedly jump out in front of you) a treat

I am thinking mudflap (if these can be fitted with side tubes) and coded door handles Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Mudflaps will fit with tubes.

Feeling a little guilty that it's misbehaved as I sold it to you.

no need to feel guilty James, you only sold it, were as LR made it and there the ones that put in a dodgy diff  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

A dodgy diff made by Getrag , rather than a proper one made in Birmingham UK (ex Salisbury) You'd get a proper diff if you bought a disco or a RRS

Getrag is that part of catterpiller, farnells and LRCS said it was them supplying  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Getrag Ford transmissions was a joint venture that started in 2001, Volvo got involved late 2004 - Not sure what will happen now the Tata's have the car

Getrag, Ford, Audi, Jaguar, Mopar, Unipart, Champion, Cat, Bosch, everyone knows that it's all a global marketing ploy. Buy cheap and re-badge.

There is only one manufacturing plant in the whole world today, it's near the North Pole, and therein lies the reason why things sometimes have problems. It's all to do with Santa's elves. They worrk in the plant all year except for Christmas, and sometimes they get caught up in the machenery / packaging / parts, and we all know what happens to elves if they are unhappy... they turn into Gremlins...

So that, children, is why things break down.
