Ours usually fully latch with a gentle tug followed by allowing gravity to finish the job. Mine too, in fact gravity will do the job on its own. If you need to slam them I reckon they need adjusting.

A Land Rover owning friend of mine pointed out that the door lock will not work unless the door is fully closed. A useful easy check.

Gravity has no affect on my doors, they stay wherever they are put. I will admit I have had the passenger door fly open on a corner though.
The door lock trick is a good one, I shall make sure my passengers always lock once in. I always wondered why my 4/4 had locks on the inside when it doesn't even have handles outside.

We haven't finished yet.
The lock check is part of our preflight list.

And you have to cover the effect that wearing a Biggles jacket has on the ability to close the door. And dont forget the after market wooden hinges!
