Will,
Yes, I realize that. What I was really referring to
were the comments by the guy with the '97 Range Rover.
If he bought that truck in the US, it would have
already had R134a refrigerant in it. Not sure about
the refrigerant used in vehicles originally delivered
to Europe, though. I wouldn't be surprised if R12 was
phased out even earlier over there, though.
