2000 Land Rover Defender 110 County Station Wagon review from UK and Ireland
"Great vehicle ruined by poor quality workmanship"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear differential was replaced, complete rear axle was replaced, now the transfer gearbox is being replaced, all in less than 2000 miles on a brand new vehicle.
Upon delivery the sunroof leaked and the front passenger door lock was defective.
General comments?
Insufficient quality control at the factory, very poor workmanship on vehicle assembly.
A wonderful vehicle if it was reliable. Land Rover need a serious rethink about their quality control procedures if indeed they have any.
