I hope you have learnt your lesson, people here no nothing about Range Rovers etc, and certainly don't care about their reliability as we will never drive them. But do let us know if a Toyota gets burnt.
We prefer stories about Va-China and Vera Sidika You and who? Bure kabisa, I wish you knew people.   I may be wrong..but then I could be right

@Dr Dre pole. Care to tell us the whole story, like what happened after that? I saw one too burning too near Sultan Hamud when coming from Mombasa from Easter holiday.However when your car gives you issues let it burn and let the insurance sort you out less the excess.The beauty with burning is that the evidence is burnt!!!! I have just googled "range rover fire" and it appears it's a problem. Like in these cases: http://globalnews.ca/new...lowna-range-rover-fire/

@Dre. I would have loved to know where your left hand and some fingers were just before the RR came to a halt. I have heard a theory regarding a gas released..

Oooh! Didn't expect this. Some comments are just hilarious! To those saying labda ni kuzoea Probox, hapana. I drive a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland which gives me no problems even on long trips. Secondly, the guy got in touch with his insurance company and they're working on it, though hakusema it was with someone else. Ilibebwa to Nrb the next day. Finally, I still got some 'consolation' that night from the 'new catch' in a not-so-clean motel somewhere in the middle of nowhere. She could understand that it was an emergency so hakuna kuchagua where you're going to spend the night. Don't Work Harder...Work Smarter!

And the way it leaves me with my mouth.....every time it zooms past me? not really. strange that simonkabz can use something happening to a friend of his (who for all we know used a clueless wire guy to screw up the electronics etc) to say that x5 has issues. this can not even pass as anecdotal evidence. or maybe we should read it in context of his disclaimer that he is clueless about european cars.
