I have no sympathy for him, it is a well known fact that all diesel cars that are driven in the city need to be taken out of town and driven hard in lower gears and higher speeds to trigger the DPF regeneration, it is in the owner's manual. Mind Startstone Mayfair are also telling less than the truth by stating they don't sell Range Rover Sports, of course they do, that was the place I first saw an RRS SVR and they always have RRS's in stock when I walk round there for my early morning stroll when I am in central London. He should have bought a petrol RRS. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

How did he get tipped off,,did they make him buy the car.?,,let him set it on fire & he will be 70k out of pocket because I don't think he will be able to claim off his insurance & I don't think it will put me off buying another because of this numpty.

I just looked again at the picture - is it parked on double yellow lines as well? Typical foreign Diplomatic Corps, think that they can abandon a car anywhere and get away without paying the fines, amazed it hasn't been taken to a compound and impounded. He claims it isn't registered in the UK - why not? That makes me wonder if it is even insured............ 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

United Kingdom 2012 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Orkney Grey

There's a parking bay line around it on the road. Unless he's feeding a meter, I'm amazed it hasn't been towed.

I think he's​ got bored and wants his money back so he can buy something else.

One thing that confuses me is his argument about costs. They offer​ to clear the DPF for free and he goes on about parking and congestion charges, and how it's all an expense. Thinking further, I think he's been told to get rid of it by someone (boss or wife) and is trying to get his money back. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

He's not only bashing JLR for no obvious reason, but also damaging the diplomatic image / misusing his position as a diplomat.

So who owns the car, just trying to think who we know with a black Sport, ADY's old pal BC springs to mind Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter not saying either of them is a Dick though Whistle In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures
