Seen that, how do you think they managed that?

There are barriers around so guessing roadworks. So my guess is trying to dig away from the machine under the kerb line and hit the ram bending it enough that when it's jammed it proper broke it.
Same thing happens when underpinning

And goes to say that the TDV6 will do 6 miles between breakdowns

Old bloke in the village (now deceased) once told me he had been married for 50 years. “We did split up for 3 years in the middle though but got back together again. And do you know what…… (long pause as he looks into the distance).. those were the happiest 3 years of my life”

I don’t know how these sales people sleep at night making such unachievable claims, or do these figures only apply to new vehicles.

Your forgetting that landrover owners only class a breakdown as leaving you stranded on the side of the road. If anything breaks but you can still make it home it's just classed as normal wear and tear.

Like breaking an arm off their rose tinted glasses?

Nah when that breaks and the glasses become unusable it is directly related to them no longer being land Rover owners. General wear and tear on a landrover includes but is not limited to. Break failure, power steering failure, water pump failure, wheel bearing failure, air suspension failure and last but not least failure of the loose nut between the steering wheel and the driver's seat.

By contrast land cruiser owners are appauled and outraged at having to change a bulb. Even if it is factory original fitted in 1997 and 270k miles ago.
The only acceptable part to replace are the tyres because they arnt actually made by Toyota.

could be worse ... TDV8

Once tried it on me for missing an oil change saying that's why I needed a new block...FFS .
Let's just say I had a brand new D5 for 7 weeks and the 2.0l pile of shite was sold faster than the current cabinet changes.
Yet I still run them.

No new vehicle is reliable with all this emission crap just had to have a new egr valve fitted, car would go into a limp mode at the worse times and I would have to hit it with a small hammer .But if you remove egr valve car runs better more MPG but will not pass emission tests

getting thread back on course

sounds like a case of fit a good one the day before and take it off for next year the day after ....... if it works that long

If only it was a 5 min job to change and didn't need mapping out.
