Mikey Jay Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 What the flip is it with me and Land Rovers (particularly the older style ones) !?Fair enough they're always trying to drive me into hedges and so on when I'm driving down country roads but can put up with that Buuuut......today driving along behind a Land Rover (at 60mph - national speed limit) which was pulling a trailer, and suddenly, the flap fell down, flicking stones up at my car, then the plonker decided to brake hard Wasn't too close so was all fine but gave me a shock.What's more though is that last week had a near miss involving a Land Rover.-Was driving home the back way (through the country roads) behind the 'rover which happened to have some door strapped to the roof. Then, the strap for no reason just came loose and the doors came flying off towards my car Luckily this was followed by some quick thinking (brake and move to the other side of the road as there were no oncoming cars)I was fine but nearly gave Jo a panic attack though :DRight.....rant over......Everyone else feel free to comment and share your own 4x4 related nightmares Quote Link to post Share on other sites
