May I suggest a revision to the typo on the Subject title. Whistle

200k and still going strong.

How about a 'so far it's had a new this that and the other replaced' kind of list?

Ohh the warrenty list on mine is quite long, and as for how is it going, gearbox is howling noisy in 3rd and 6th, backlash in the diffs is terrible and the enging runs like a bag of spanners, still pulls very well still good on fuel, still great fun to have, oh and the drivers seat back has collapsed and the metal frame is digging in my back thats one of those urgent repairs, at the moment have a pillow wedged under the seat cover. If everything is under control you are not going fast enough.

I am on 2nd Engine my first blew at 20K (proper destructed its self)
3rd gearbox (but that does not show a true story the first went at 50K was jumping out of 1st so they changed it, then 6K later that one was leaking so instead of fix the leak they did a parts warrenty exchange)
3rd back diff i am just wearing them out, heavy high mileage towing, they could have been adjusted but Land Rover just fit new.
I am on my 3rd Turbo 4th Exhaust manifold ?? Egr valves it all just gets to hot. (and no its never been chiped)
2nd front prop, 1 set of rear axle drive flanges and bolts.
Alarm and Imobalizer ecu and loom set up (it was in for 4 weeks trying to sort that)
3rd set of wiper drive units they just sieze up,
2nd Radiator, 2nd Battery and this one is dying.
2nd high pressure fuel pump,
2nd Hand brake assy

You have got to love Land Rover Warrenty i do and Matfords they are good aswell If everything is under control you are not going fast enough.
