    "Breakers" is an abbreviation for "breaker's yard" or scrap metal dealer or vehicle dismantler.  Places that take old cars, break them down and sell parts before crushing what's left.  "Breakers" refers to a type of business, not the name of an individual business.

    Owning a land rover means you becoming very familiar with breakers. Especially freelanders in a frock.

    Did we ever establish why the oil light didn’t come on, or was there a defect on this too?

    "The oil light" is engine oil pressure, not transmission fluid level.
