Range Rover In Front of Dealership
The owner of this Range Rover Sport HSE claims he has had nothing but problems with his £50,000 ($82,550) vehicle and took a dig at the automaker and the dealership in Colchester, Essex (UK) by parking his vehicle in front of the dealership with some unflattering remarks about the car. A note on the side of the Rover reads: “If you want trouble free motoring do not buy one of these!!!” while notes on the windows disclose the list of problems the owner faced, “Problems with . . . 6 front ball joints, 4 front arm bushes, new seat base, front and rear n/s [nearside] struts, full n/s suspension unit, anti-roll bar bushes, air con.”
Even though it is parked in front of the dealership, the staff is helpless in getting it removed because it is parked on a public road. The showroom has decided not to reveal the owner’s identity and as part of its “goodwill policy,” Land Rover has offered to help the owner “into a new vehicle.”
