Hello All
I work in the Land Rover Off Road Capability team based at the design centre at Gaydon, Warwickshire, England. Part of this role is to ensure that LRs remain to be the best off road vehicles possible, I'm currently doing a "real" customer based study into usage and would like comments about our products. I'm mainly interested in current vehicles although I'm still keen to understand any historic issues you guys have.
Thanks for your help.

"troll" I say...
jhmover said:1. Solid axles (no independent suspension).
2. Center diff lock.
3. Front and rear diff locks (ones that don't turn off automatically after you reach a certain speed).
4. Manual Transmission (6-speed with a granny low gear and OD 6th would be nice).
5. Absent that a nice 6 speed auto with a granny low and OD 6th would be acceptable - but needs to have a button you can use anytime for full manual control of what gear you're in.
6. Turbo-Diesel engine that makes good power, gets good MPG.
7. Full frame.
8. Fuse box with extra slots to add on things like air compressors, radios, driving lights, etc.
9. Non-sagging headliner (like get it Rhino lined or something - no fabric).
10. Real bumpers - not the plastic garbage. Optional winch bumper setup (not an add on that hangs down in the mud please).
11. Lockable storage spaces, I wish my glove box, center console and side boxes in the rear were lockable.
12. Get rid of all your proprietary OBDII and ABS software and make it available to people who don't want to pay a fortune to the dealer or spend a fortune on aftermarket software and code readers.
13. Lower gears for low range in the transfer case.
14. Factory 35" tires.
15. Beefed front steering.
16. Lastly a Rover that doesn't leak all over the place.
