Some seven years ago I had a 2012 Jaguar XF, it was supposedly a premium car but quite frankly it wasn't a patch on the Saab 9-5 it replaced and I sold it for a 2005 Saab 9-5 Aero. However, as a result of having a Jaguar I joined a Jaguar forum. What I read put me off JLR for life: Cars in the hands of dealers for many weeks awaiting parts or authorisation to replace something. Design faults that should never have happened. Form taking precedence over function resulting in unnecessary complexity etc.

Obviously I won't be buying a new Saab any time soon but their customer service, when I needed it, was excellent. It appears that JLR haven't improved! The place to iron out the bugs is in development, the customer should never find out about them.

I hope you get your Land Rover fixed Eric.

Yes the Discovery forums are full of similar tales of woe.  
I am fortunate? that the pandemic has restricted the need / frequency of use because dealers call the car in on a Monday and don’t touch it till Friday (the remote app tells me when it’s unlocked and if it moves). That’s one of my biggest grievances…protracted, apathetic service. 

The shortage of available alternative vehicles prevents me doing the obvious and changing it.

What a crazy world we live in, a guy with 30 years experience gets made redundant probably because they can replace him with someone else that will work for less money but they have lost all that experience.

Visiting other fora is one thing, dropping this one is uncalled for..

Well Happy Christmas and Merry New Year 2023.

I have to say that in January 2023 we are due to have further expense to keep the forum alive.

I no longer have the energy to run the forum and manage it so I offer it to others to fund and run the forum.
Please contact me via PM if you wish to take over.

I have been doing Moderation and Admin on the forum since 1998 so have say that it is time to stand down and either close the forum or pass it to another person.

Thank you dear friends for all our interactions and the great fun that we had.
Adios, Adieu, Goodbye.

Jonathan.

I am happy to keep it going and take on your role  - there is no expense in January. The domain name is paid up to December 2023 and from there on it can become a sub domain of my website which is paid up for the next 4 years.
