We've gone for a stripped engine in both cases, £64** + VAT, I believe Our warranty claim was £9840, which included an inflated labour rate, and parts at full LR retail And a 2 year, unlimited mile warranty |

Tried to purchase WD policy just to cover the engine and they asked me if i have any other warranty on the vehicle which i said yes its land rover extended warranty but they do not cover the crank shaft issue they said sorry it would be conflict of interest we cannot sell you the policy. So i either go with them knowing they cover crank shaft but may take the pi** to approve claims or keep extended land rover warranty knowing they cover everything pretty much pay out quick no drama but won’t cover my crank shaft |

My suggestion to you would be to get in touch with LR about your car. The reason LR won’t cover my bill 100% is because they would deem it unfair on those who purchased AU cars so to me this means they would cover a crankshaft even though the warranty won’t?.

Yeah, you can’t have 2 insurance policies on 1 product. It’s called double indemnity. Same way you can’t have 2 car insurance policies.

Unfortunately not, Mapfre forgot to book an engineer for 2 weeks. Stratstone escalated it at Mapfre on Monday and they booked an engineer who inspected the engine yesterday in now awaiting the report and outcome. |

Yes still in one of their cars. First they gave me a brand new XF estate and recently changed it for a nearly new Defender with 1200 miles on the clock. |

I must say I’m rather impressed. I was surprised at the ride quality and smoothness although I think it’s based on the discovery so maybes I shouldn’t be so surprised. It does feel much more LR than RR which is a relief as I think the discovery sometimes feels too much like it’s trying to be a RR? The infotainment system is great and the rear view camera is a cool idea, particularly if you have a dog box in the boot! |

The disco, sport, Range Rover, and defender are all on variations of the d7 JLR platform, along with a few Jags as well.
