I'm very surprised to see that article say "The Ranger is currently Europe’s best-selling truck". Europe's a big place with big variations in what sells, but Rangers seem to be well outnumbered by Mitsubishi L200s and Toyota Hiluxes around here!

All good advice above - although I remain to be convinced that it is good for the suspension to sit for prolonged periods at its fullest extension. I used to keep an old Saab 99 in UK, that I used for four weeks at a time each summer. All I ever did was jump-start it, using the hire car from...

Lol, I think the answer to Jamesauto24 is "yes"! ...it does a bit, but not in a bad way!

Polly, I used to have one just like that! Got to love the old split doors and sliding windows. Have you still got the vacuum diff switch?

I know I'm probably driving with computer technology from the dark ages, but am I alone in letting the vehicle systems boot-up by turning on the ignition and waiting for the systems-check to complete before firing it up? Definitely seems to result in fewer spurious error codes to clear.

Telwyn, I guess it depends on your anticipated use, but did you consider having stronger mounts for the roof rack, to bring the weight down to the waist of the vehicle, or lower? The upper portion of the body has a lot of flex in it and even the weight of a spare wheel on the roof can be...

All very interesting...but I'm left wondering how the French differentiate between E for Essence and E for Eau! :)

Interesting! I guess they will be looking to clear the clutter around that middle section, where they currently have Evoque, DS and (arguably) Velar, all fitting slightly different parts of the same market.

That comment made me wonder about LR production/sales figures and surprisingly I see (from statista.com ) that the FL2/LR2/DS and the Evoque have consistently been LR's top performers with the RRS close behind. I guess perspective depends on where you are but the LR2/FL2 was a very successful...

Not a lot wrong with that list (although I'm not sure about keeping both FFRR and RRS), but I think there is a gap in their line-up for a slightly smaller SUV that is still family and off-tarmac capable. Of course, as a FL2/LR2 owner I have a certain bias here, but the Disco Sport was never...

It's often been said that Land Rover start their design works with a rattle, then build a vehicle around it! At least yours is easily identifiable and I hope you manage to get a fix. But for what it's worth, the sunroof on my 1993 Defender rattled too, but I just lived with it.

DortchRules, I'm glad to see someone else that keeps it simple! I've got an old-style enamel coffee pot and with the right grind it infuses and settles pretty quickly, leaving very little ground coffee in the cup.

Lol! ... living nearly 20 degrees north of your latitude, it’s sometimes difficult to tell the seasons apart! :)

Interesting! My recollection is of the series III having very light steering but I guess with modern tyres and a smaller steering wheel there may be a greater need for power assistance. Are you updating the brakes?

Not in the Camel league, but 1400 miles from home, overlooking the Mediterranean...and it’s not often that you see an FL2/LR2 pic on here!
