    LR3 Extended Warranties? 2005 LR3 HSE

    I was pitched the same as your original deal. I'm in SF area. I also don't put many miles on the car and haven't had any mechanical problems... I've had many things fixed, but almost all under recall or more 'wear-and-tear' items. Instead of forking out $3k plus deductibles I think I...

    LR3 Extended Warranties? 2005 LR3 HSE

    Oyeah, did you end up with that warranty? My dealer is pimping it to me as well, have to make my decision very soon. Thanks.

    Land Rover Service is outrageous.

    Had similar problems myself, voted with my feet and now couldn't be happier with my service. Bummer you have to deal with it in the first place.

    Steering Wheel Peeling

    Your pic was exactly as mine looked a few months before those ridges began to break down... replaced under warranty.

    Help Picking up new Tires... HSE

    Love my Pirellis thus far. Good price, very quiet and can handle dirt tracks pretty well. They look pretty sweet too.

    Mine popped-out as well. The Stealer screwed it halfway back in (crossthread) without bothering to place a washer on it. Make sure they fix it correctly - it's dangerous.

    Anyone over 100K?

    Don't do it unless you KNOW or have absolute faith in the car's history. Otherwise incremental cost for a lower mileage vehicle is worth it in this case. Shoot, I love my rig but am very nervous about rolling over 50k w/o a warranty (as with Audis or any other performance oriented car).

    Never Coming Back Again

    I wouldn't have loaned any friend of mine my ready-to-explode Ford Explorer back in the day... it's illogical to apply the problem from that particular car to the aggregate. Your instincts were right, you should not have taken those keys. Trust your gut next time.

    19" Tire Advice

    There's a relatively recent post on the newly available 19" Pirellis you may want to search for. Great for freeway and light offroading.

    LR3 Rooftop Tent?

    some sweet looking rides there Boaz. What a nicely executed idea... Anyone slept in one of these? Aside from having a level surface and being harder for the bears to reach, what are the benefits?
