70% of all Land Rovers...

<< < (2/2)

martha focker:
they are on the road waiting for the RAC

crazymac:
I'm inclined towards the recycled aspect.....

Lets face it, even once its been written off, it still has a value, you only have to look at the amount of parts on Eblag to realise it! very few other motors have this.

Add in all the trialers and modified specials that are around as well you can see the reason for this.

Also take the former colonies into this as well, there were massive amounts exported to africa, the carribean, south america and india who all take recycleing to a level WAY above us

So I think that a more accurate statement would be

"70% of all landrovers are still on the road in some way shape of form!!"

thermidorthelobster:
Or "70% of all bits of Land Rovers are still on the road".  This sounds a bit more realistic...  but then all those OEM & pattern spare parts that are sold must be replacing stuff which is being gotten rid of, so I'm still not convinced!

I'd be interested to know what the median age of a Defender / Disco / RRC / P38 / Tempest / L322 is.  I'm assuming the new ones aren't going to last as long as the old ones, but it would be nice to see.
