No doubt!! They look good and ride good and that is about it. Biggest electrical nightmare ever built. The last Range Rover I had was horrible. Once my girl was using the vanity mirror and as soon as it came on it went back off and a message came across the dashboard about something with the transmission. I checked the fuse and had to replace it. Problem solved, but why in the F*#K would a car manufacturer of such status (or any manufacturer) use the same f'ing fuse for the transmission as the vanity mirror lights?:icon14: Anyways this being said I was called by Land Rover of Greenville for some parking lot repairs about a year ago. I went and met with the owner to see what he needed and eventually got started talking bout the different models they have now and so on and on. After bs'ing for a while he let me drive a new one around the block and while doing this he actually told me that Land Rover makes 20% of their profit when they sell an automobile and 80% of the PROFIT off the SERVICE!!! Yes this came straight from the owners mouth.

I always used to tell my wife not to park in the driveway even if it's not behind my car. She did anyway and I smushed into the side of her car, while backing up my Land Cruiser at night. Didn't even know her car was there. Good thing for her a 370 was not involved.

Before I bought a Land Cruiser, I test drove a Range Rover. Nice, but when I mentioned to the dealer that the car had a bad repair reputation, he told me that if I didn't like the idea of occasional repairs, then a Rover was not the right car for me. So I took his advice.

:iagree:

I can't seem to find any pics of their finished product. I'm assuming you've seen one somewhere if you've already got one on order??

I'll do you guys better, pics of the bumper, and pics of the GF.

I already posted this pic last year after she did a bikini photo shoot in the NSFW Wives / GF thread, but in case you missed it, there can never be too many pics of member GF's in bikinis...

Dude.. you gotta get rid of the dic* swinger mobile aka Range Rover. Those things are such POS's.

Anyway I know how you feel. Been there and done that in my own driveway on occassion. But you've got a new piece coming! :tup:

Beautiful girlfriend Jjaden. She looks as if she could be a figurative model/fitness model. I know you are big into fitness, so I assume she is too?

Good eye, she competed for a year and won her IFBB Figure pro card in 2009, and then retired right away from competition :tup:

All the dieting and 2x daily to the gym was a pain in the butt and starting to be a strain on the family.

Everything in moderation, so we train together 4 times a week now, play tennis together, paintball weekly as a family and I train MMA a couple nights a week.

It's much better spending less time in the gym together and doing other fun things.

I agree totally, the RR is biggest POS ever. The GF loved the styling and size for the kids so since she bought it for herself, I kept quiet.

We live out in the country and she goes into the city daily so I calculated her fuel costs and they are around 6-7k yearly.

After I told her this she is now considering (Due to my pushing her) a Fisker Karma Electric Hybrid.

We're checking one out in July...

hansoac 06-14-2011 08:19 AM

oh man that Fisker is shmexy! :yum:

Don't bother having the bumper buffed out (I assume you don't own a buffer and will have to pay someone to do it). You're getting a new one anyways, besides, you have chips all over your bumper to begin with. Make sure you clear bra your next bumper. That's the single best investment you should do for ANY car.

You are so right, this is my only regret with the car, only because I had no idea what a clear bra was when I first bought the Z.

As soon as the new bumper/fenders are installed I am either getting a 3M wrap or Clear Bra.

Yea she was drinking and she took a bar. Then the cops knocked on my door that following day and asked if she can step outside. We didnt know till the cop told us that she slightly grazed a suv as well. It was the mexican couple that called the cops on us. How do I know that they are mexican? Well they have 10 cars parked around there house with a dozen kids running around. (I am mexican too but do not meet the stereotype qualifications) The lady cop told me in a very mean way to stay in the house cause she wanted to talk to my girlfriend. So I gave that lady attitude and went inside. She wanted me in the house because she noticed my girls eyes were real red and puffy and asked her if she was ok and if I was hitting her. She said no as she was crying for wrecking my car. Then the mexican couple asked for $500 in damages and they took it to some shop and wanted to do it under the table and not get the insurance company involved. I decided to wait on giving them the money because I was skeptical of the place and wanted to take it to a shop myself know that was too much for the damage done. I never heard from the couple again or saw the suv??? In the end I have a 98 hatch and on my way to glory as I am saving up for a Nismo hence the name z-less.
