England 2007 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE Manual Blank
Four day week

I thought I heard today that Land Rover are going on to a four day week. Anybody heard that? If so, does it mean problems for owners? I'm already struggling to get warranty work done. I'm a bit worried now... Someone put my mind at rest - please! Crying or Very sad

It was not mentioned at the factory yesterday Confused I cant see how it could possibly affect your warranty though, most parts used would probably come from outside suppliers.

Its only the RRS and D3 thats not being built on Fridays.

And it represents a tiny fraction of the annual output.

That's good news then.......... If they don't make D3s on a Friday, we won't get any Friday afternoon problem cars Thumbs Up

or will they become Thursday afternoon cars? Confused

So no one is buying D3's in the UK at the mo. I'm always too late to the party! Laughing

I also read that 300 LR staff have moved to the Jaguar XF production line. Seems that LR's best year has come and gone....

Hope the Govt get a grip and stop adding to the woes of the UK Plc.
