Umm - I don't think I was sniping? The design issues are well known - safety issues are also well documented. And other vehicles have the same or similar challenges especially older ones.
But the subject is Land Rover. And unfortunately many people equate the name with capability when that may not be the case. You've got to realise that there are lots of 2nd hand spares in the boonies. For a reason - lots of Land Rovers never left.
And the same is true for other marques.
But this thread is about Land Rovers ...
PS - note I've not made any comparisons to anything else and only noted my joy at swapping a LR for a Unimog in a conflict zone - which most people would be happy about because you can add armour to the 'mog fairly easily
