| Good to read this - does sometimes feel that from a tech vs. reliability point of view LR peaked with our beloved Freelander 2. |

Not seen Ep.2 yet but enjoyed the first and look forward to next week - the LR build they show looks the business from the clips.
Guy is a real character and always enjoy his programs and books. |

Had the opportunity to park my Freelander close to a PHEV over the weekend, thought it interesting to compare them.
