My Old Man, is a good friend of one of the senior management of the old Rover plant , not only has he tried to talk me out of buying a LRD3, he is organising a sweep stake for the number of days of my ownership before my first technical failure.... 
A) Should I risk a £5?
B) If so, what mileage / day should I place my bet?
Time is running out as, collecting Wednesday.....

Top Cat,
What’s a technical failure?
Had mine 12 months on Sunday 23/12 and done 12500 miles. No technical failures. It has only been to the dealers for the enhancement. I’ve had a couple of suspension warning lights but they cleared when rebooting the ignition. The worst failure was the 3rd row auxiliary power socket, which was a loose wire.
Define technical failure, get the best price/odds on none in 12 months and take it.
Can’t find anything I want this year for Xmas as last years D3 is still unbeatable.
H D3 gone for now

What car does he drive? How about a bet on who has the least failures.

Depends if you mean niggles or things to stop you moving. I used to moan about my 06 Model with little things but the new one is about 6 weeks and 3000 miles old and it's perfect.
