Did you hear about the man whose Land Rover didn't leak oil? The factory took it back and worked on it until it did. Did you hear the one about the guy that peeked into a Land Rover and asked the owner "How can you tell one switch from another at night? They all look the same. "He replied, it does not matter which one you use, nothing happens !" The Lucas motto: "Get home before dark." Lucas - Inventor of the first intermittent wiper. Lucas - Inventor of the self-dimming headlamp. Land Rover three position headlight switch - Dim, Flicker and Off. The Original Anti-Theft Device - Lucas Electrics. "I have had a Lucas pacemaker for years and have never had any trou..." If Lucas made guns, wars would not start Back in the 70's, Lucas decided to diversify its product line and began manufacturing vacuum cleaners. It was the only product they offered which did not suck... Q: Why do the British drink warm beer? A: Because Lucas makes their refrigerators... |

Lucas was bought by TRW, who still makes a bunch of components under the hood. How bad do they suck? Just wondering because there's a big TRW building in Reston. Oh yeah, and Northrop Grumman is trying to buy TRW. Maybe that's why the latest RR looks like a spaceship. |
