An X5 is an Essex Slag compared to the City Chic of the RRS.

The Q5 is a fat mum of 6 on benefits from Rotherham and the Q7 is her fat older sister.

The FFRR is a classy looking older bird with good legs but tell tale signs of aging.

If you want my opinion stick with your lady, she's the best out of the lot, the grass is always greener on the other side.

Thanks for the advice Jonny Gone - 2008 Stornoway Grey RRS 2.7 TDV6

I'm afraid that once you start getting "wandering eyes" it's downhill from there.........

Soon you'll find yourself looking at the cars on forecourts and wondering what p/x value your lady will get......Before you know it she'll be gone and you'll have a new love in your life.  Current: I can't say...Oh the Shame!

Love your comparisons there Jonny F

But dare I ask what sort of "Girl" a D3 might be

BKHK -

Stating the obvious, in changing to another brand you run the risk of having similar happen in any other new car. Every manufacturer has cases whereby one individual owners car appears to be more problematic than average. Formerly known in the UK as the 'Friday Car'

At the end of the day when such issues happen to me, I look to the way the issue was resolved - i.e. the customer service. And it would appear that you are being looked after reasonably well on that front, both by your dealer and the manufacturer - that's only my estimation though. Trust me I have seen much worse, and this forum also details more!

If you still feel aggrieved though - which is you prerogative - I would approach the dealer and/or manufacturer and ask them what they think of your issue at the big picture level, and how they would propose resolving it or recompensing you. See how creative they wish to be, and if they propose something, see whether that closes the matter for you and discuss if not. If they close the door on you then you know what they think of your future business and loyalty, and then you have to make your choice then and there to move on or to stay with LR, aaccepting whatever risks lie within your decision! No one can make this decision for you

FWIW, if I was in your shoes I would try be to get LRA to assist you into a TDV8!

2R

is the seat issue a recall problem? my car is just out of warantee, and its got the vibrating problem! however, its credit crunch n i dont wana pay to have it fixed!

 RR Sport supercharged 06
strut grills, strut 22" wheels, Full Kahn Kit
Brembo big brake kit, tinted front and rear lights

CLS 63 AMG Mercedes 2008, Cayenne Turbo S 2007, C32 AMG mercedes 2004, Vito Van 111CDI 2004

SP, think yourself lucky to have a vibrating seat for free - if you had a Merc, BMW or Audi you would have to pay extra for the luxury  2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

BKHK, I don't know what the consumer laws are like in Oz, but maybe try to push LR for a new replacement or money back?
