Breaks

[jcasteel]

I'm sure that I am the only person bothered by this but...

When your land rover breaks then you need to fix it.

The things that are supposed to stop our rovers are the brakes. You might fix the brakes. You do not fix the breaks.

Now that I've gotten this off of my chest you can go about your business and ignore this information. :thumb-up:

FWIW, that drives me crazy too.

[Jim-ME]

Me as well.

I don't know about you guys but when mine breaks I try to fix it.

Especially if it is the brakes that break.

[leafsprung]

Them's the breaks . . .

[pisten-bully]

I thought using the term "breaks" was a clever way to describe Series LR stopping systems. Instead of saying "my brakes are broken... again", all you need to do is tell someone is "it's the breaks", and if they know their Series LR's at all they'll understand.

I'm sure I'm guilty as charged...
bad spellers of the world untie

Haha. Me too.

Another beef is "their" vs "they're" and "your" vs "you're".

If you're breaks aren't working rite you might need to blead them.

Ah but then we get into American english vs real english. Surely, given its manufacture, you should be asking what colour to paint your truck.

When my brakes break, I often break from breakdancing and enjoy breakfast prior to breaking out the breaker bar and breaking my knuckles on the break-in procedure.

Alternatively, once my brakes broke, I broke from the pack watching brokeback mountain and broke off my brokers brake pedal after his Rover repairs broke the bank.

When talking to my friends I try to impress them by calling my tires tyres but they don't get it...

Is it bad that I don't know what colour my series is?

I've never washed it.

I could get a shock if I did.

Before this thread ends, there is one more word I need to mention.

[cscutt]

We can either laugh or cry about it, but the courage of the ubiquitous downtrodden landy owner is tested every time the key is inserted.
