I started off roading with a series 3 LR, I then moved onto a couple of classic RR. At the time I had the view of most LR owners, best 4x4xfar and all that stuff. It slowly dawned on me that during most of the more extreme stuff I was doing the car that was rescuing me was a Land Cruiser, the car towing my broken LR home was a LC. I asked the owner of the LC what maintenance he did between trips, pointed a jet wash at it was the reply. The LC simply refused to break and with the triple diff locks, standard on UK spec 80 series, it got places my RR never could.
I was converted to LC ownership and now I'm the one towing my mates in their broken and stuck LRs. I love the styling of most LR products but I really wish they would build them properly and use better quality components for the simple stuff like electrical connectors.
