    Gas Tank Filler & Check Engine Light & Gas Cap Light

    Hey Ubanghi, For what it’s worth I’m still experiencing intermittent issues with this.. namely a bizarre sucking sound from the fuel filler cap - which I’ve also replaced among other things... let us know how you’re getting on. Cheers!

    Thoughts on 2021 Bronco as LR4 replacement?

    I will probably replace my LR with a Bronco, but I’m not in a rush to. The biggest trade of will be the reduction in rear cabin space versus the fun factor.

    Another Defender hint?

    I agree that they will probably appeal to different crowds, but everyone can clearly see the Bronco takes advantage of the fact that LR has abandoned its traditional base. (Heartbreaking for long-standing enthusiasts like us) And at the end of the day I can see Bronco clobbering Defender in...

    Another Defender hint?

    Now if they are smart, McGovern and the gang will be working on getting the Defender facelift to grow a pair at this point.... problem is they fundamentally got it wrong- What a nightmare for LR unfortunately...

    Another Defender hint?

    Clearly LR residuals were integrated into Defender2 pricing... the launch mix is also skewed towards higher spec units. Add in the dealership markups and the value equation leaves you scratching the head.. I also have to admit the design isn’t bad. It just comes across as a bit plastic and...

    LR4 vs Defender

    All I can say is (((Bronco))) It’s gonna catch LR and the new Defender with its pants around it’s ankles!!! Gotta tip my hat to Ineos though! Great effort to honor the original. Also great that folks will have different choices all over the price spectrum as well. End of the day though- I’ll...

    Another Defender hint?

    The company said that they have received just 22,000 orders for the new Land mRover Defender, a model JLR hopes to sell in large volumes. That figure is disappointing according to analysts who spoke to Financial Times, adding that it’s only slightly higher than the number of old Defenders sold...

    Another Defender hint?

    Will be interesting to see how long the dealers run those 10k markups... I personally don’t feel like the Design warrants the premium. I’m also not sure the demand is that strong either... especially with so many folks thinking differently about big purchases at the moment...

    Another Defender hint?

    Stopped at the local Rover dealership on the way home today. They had a single defender on the lot with 10k mark up/ and added 5k in nick nacks: 90k Grand total before LA country taxes! In 2020 anything goes I suppose...

    Another Defender hint?

    Wonder about the price point on that one: Probably isn’t a more expensive engine to make than the others....

    Any official word on postponement due to Covid? I can’t imagine the delivery of vehicles not being delayed... Awful financial impact for JLR...
