Why do people keep banging on about how good the Landrover is and its the only thing to tow a caravan.
I was born in Shirley West Midlands which is about three miles from Solihull and the Landrover factory.
It was and still is favorably known as the lazy acre this is an indication of what people thought of the work force and their attitude to building cars.
Below is the most recent surveys from Which and JD Power which ranks landrover as one of the worst cars manufactured.
So nothing has changed from when I was a young lad some fifty years ago.

They are designed to overcome the worst off-road conditions nature can throw at them.

JD POWER

that stop working or trim pieces that break or come loose."
