    Probably shouldn't make a crankshaft out of cardboard derivatives.

    However it does look to be out of its environment.

    Can it still kill me if I don’t have a Land Rover?

    One chance in a million. Especially after the rest of the car has been completely towed from the environment.

    That area beyond the environment really is full of broken things. And oil.

    Chances are higher as you're then dealing with a Land Rover driver with you as either a pedestrian or another road user, arguably these are much more dangerous positions to be in when talking about Land Rovers

    Although a chocolate crankshaft is disappointing, its hard to imagine it being fatal?

    Really can't see how that's any more dangerous than any other mechanical failure?

    If anything your Range Rover not working is only going to make it safer as they don't have working indicators or mirrors and can't stop at red lights...

    Reliability problems? With a Land Rover? Unheard of, I'm sure.

    That just really looks like a puny crankshaft for a diesel engine.

    I'm no mechanic but that's a crankshaft, not a ticking timebomb.
