The radius arm snapped good old landrover quality steel

yeah man couldn't believe it. just went outta no where!!

Wow, we never had that happen to any of ours, and we've had four, plus three Range Rover classics. That said, all of ours were 300s, not 200s. The 200s had a less powerful engine, crap headlights and rubbish suspension.

Yeah my first car was an old 200 and it just rusted away. the one that went bang was mine before me dad had it. done a fair amount of work on it and it never saw any hardcore stuff.

but yeah ive never herd of em doin that i must admit, should ave got a suzuki

As Suzuki owners maybe we shouldn't be commenting on steel quality

Hahahaha! Good point.
Though generally it's just bodywork for us.

Thinking about it.... I've broken several springs, a shackle, shock mounts, etc...
