Started with the 96 D1,Problem after problem, Next went to the 00' D2, not as many problems but still lots of brakedowns, next was the 03' D2 and I still had a few, luckily it was a certified vehicle so the stealer fixed over and over. Now I just upgraded (i hope) to the 06' LR3 SE.

What can I expect? Whats the things to keep an eye on?

Thanks .
Eric in Ct.

Garrett, you're such a great catch, why are you still single?

I keep my status as "single" so that I can troll Facebook for middle aged men like yourself.

Actually I finally found myself a nice girl here in VA. Loves rolling a J once in a while, is a beer snob and thought that our first date on the roof of my truck was "bitchin".

No I am not sending you pics.

Let me guess, she has a big number 3 tattooed on the small of her back with "Never Forget" in script beneath.

Actually the tattoo reads "Do not inflate over 15 psi"



To the original poster, What should you expect? You should expect ridicule for not posting your first post about your LR3 in the LR3 section.

Right. Like the sight of my engorged dick wouldn't immediately cause your sphincter to relax.


Quotes such as these are far too precious to waste, may I use this as a sig line?

expect to not make it on any of the trails I am running at this years rally...

hehe had to...


LR3s are welcome on harder trails, but most owners are pussies. If you have sliders, skids and bumpers/ solid recovery, you will make it fine untill you see the dash light up like a christmas tree and u limp home in 3rd gear

Eric, I'd say from your history you're looking at more of the same. It sounds like you just step in it with the Rovers. That '96 could have been sweet and rock solid if you directed some of the funds of the following purchases.
