Unhappy LR4

[PALR4]

This guy had an oil leak, which turned out to be in the valley of the v8. I guess the motor locked up about 1/2 mile from the dealer. Luckily, Land Rover is paying for the repairs.

I don't think I would want this one anymore...

get a copy of the vin number so the forum members know to avoid it on the used car market? that would be malo, but great picture none the less...

One day it will look great with a neon-illuminated undercarriage and some 20" tires with spinners.

That poor LR4!

I do like those wheels though.

Assuming that the techs are qualified and have good attention to detail, why would you avoid this truck? I can see this truck actually being 'better than new' if the work was performed properly.

However, I assume it's getting a brand new motor and not having a siezed motor rebuilt. I wouldn't rebuild any 'modern' motor that had any amount of metal pushed through it's oilways.

wow.. out of body experience. I agree - get the VIN

Sweet, galvy chassis is possible just like my d-90...

I'd do it now if I was the owner.
