They do say that youngsters can hide their true love for something by being mean to it... Perhaps that could be the case here?

I've got to admit that there were some parts of Land Rover ownership that used to bother me a lot. They do offer up something that no jap truck can, but at the same time I often used to wonder why they would break so much?! It's rarely a major problem and is usually a cheap fix, but something used to fall off of mine with such regularity that I got a bit fed up with them. I've had several Defenders and all were the same. My Ranger on the other hand has (touch wood) never broken down in all the time I've had it. It's the most boring truck to drive that I've ever had, but it works.

I do loosely keep an eye out for a nice crew cab 130 to appear locally. I think if I found one I may buy it. The Land Rover bug is a bit like HIV - once you get it it never goes away even though there are lots of reasons to wish that it would!
