Nice! Looks very similar to the one in my garage, still Corris is the best colour around!

Well it's done 100 miles and averaged 26mpg
So no better than the TDV6 D3 we had
Assume it will ease up a bit

Just serviced. 6yrs or 90k
1st time using a new LR dealer near my wife's work and they were so bad it was untrue.
Catalogue of grrrrrrrs....Didn't ring back on 3 occasions despite promising too.
Lied about it being nearly ready and kept us waiting while it was just sat doing nothing in a parking bay out back. That dashcam never lies - The dealer did.
Forgot to wash it despite being on the invoice,
"it's just being cleaned now, it will be 10mins"
after sitting in reception for 40 mins later we needed to go so said we'll just take it as is.
...... they must have given up and put all the dirt back on... it hadn't been touched.
And then when questioned about Fault codes etc, it was a loaded question as I knew they hadn't plugged into the ODB as they never asked me where it was. They told me that's not part of an interim service on the 3+ years servicing.
Why are the dealers so bad?
