Surely at the end of the day Ford will put reliability into LR products as is now evident in the new D3. A LR that doesn't break down - that must be a good thing.
The D3 is a Disco as the Ford designers see it. It's a Discovery and a Ford Explorer rolled into one. It even has the same type of knob to select the driving style.

Er...the new D3 has a rather pathetic reputation at the moment...the only Land Rover to come out of Solihull in the last 4 years which hasn't been tainted with "It's too complicated and will fall to bits" oddly enough is the BMW built RR.....
Problems integrating the Ford systems with the BMW mechanicals are rife..and now they've ripped the BMW systems out the of the 2006 RR - they are also, now sadly, unreliable :(

Thermidor, spot on... I've had that self same argument sooo many times.
I've not seen any real evidence that Ford are planning to strip LR of the good bits other than a whole lot of paranoia.
BMW were quite open about the fact that they wanted LR's technology.. still don't understand why everyone made such a fuss about it.
Ford came out at the very start and said they were buying the brand and the history. Sounds fair to me.
The alternatives are much worse !
