I don't think anyone actually pays full list price for a 200 Series Sahara any more.
A mate of mine, a former RR driver just took deliver of his and say that it's the best vehicle he has ever had.
200 Series 2008, bull bar, Airmax snorkel,rack with 200 watt solar, third battery, winch, 33's with 2 spares, long range tank, drawers & barrier, bash plates, lifted & locked, Richards transmission lockup plus plenty of dings. Now towing the new Off Road Glamper.

It may very well be, but remember, EVERYONE says that about their new car.....

just think what you could do to a GU or 100 series with $180,000.. or GQ.....
... V8 chev, Duramax, Cummins, or the HKS 1000rwkw 4.8 GU that arab dude has..

Sorta destroys that "pay for what you get theory"....

13 tilt trays?? I think you have a case to get your money back from Landrover Australia.

and after you burn 180k on it, its still a yucky POOTROL  >:D

Might be a good chance to squeeze a good deal out of them.

How is the rig going Firefox? Any solutions yet? Fingers are still crossed for you mate. Would be a shame if I never got stuck behind a Jeep and a Range Rover around lake Eildon again!

Well we know what jeep drivers are like on hills. Ie the wife jumping out...
As for me, they have taken the car, and they are being told when it returns it will be a different shape, size and potentially a d4. Not going to accept the vehicle back.

Had enough.

Great work Nomad.

For that sort of coin you'd expect it to be better than that!  But then again I can't justify spending that much on a vehicle. That's just me. Each to their own.

Good luck with sorting it out, I'm sure with the amount of trouble you've had with it you would have legal rights for a refund for sure.
Don't complain! It could be worse, you could be six foot under or a brick of ashes!!

Great stuff and good luck.  Hopefully they come to the party and you can move on.  At the very least you need some sort of reward for your patience.  And great work Nomad!
