"Best Vehicle Ever!!!"

I usually flip cars every two years. I bought this one w/ 10K miles and have had it for 4 years and will drive it until my daughter starts driving. It is super fast and performs well. stops on a dime...saved me from several accidents. I have done all maintenance and have never had trouble with it. Overall performance and looks and comfort are outstanding. I also have an LR3 which is amazing and has been a great car as well. Dont be afraid of Land Rover.

"GORGEOUS CAR FUN TO DRIVE REPAIRS YIKES"

Bought my 2005 used and was so in love with this vehicle that I did not have it checked out thoroughly, my own fault. Probably would've learned a valuable lesson by reading a lot of these reviews as most sold theirs or traded at 70-100k miles. Costly repairs after warranty but what a gorgeous vehicle. Fun to drive and super comfy. Would not recommend investing unless you have an extended warranty, a small fortune saved up if you intend to keep it till the wheels fall off. Sturdy vehicle. I'm in the market again and it is killing me to NOT buy another one. Would not buy another simply because of the costly repairs and how much I shelled out for various repairs. Radiator, transmission, fuel injection system, engine valve covers.

Descent 4wd, 50/50 on the i6 3.2 liter
Pros

Nice looks ok suspension, 3.2 lacks power at times but very reliable

Cons

Maintenance cost, becoming harder every year to get service done. It's obsoletely

Good suv drives great, only issue is maintenance cost are ridiculous..if you can find a mechanic that will work on them!

Sadly saying goodbye to mine today at 275,000 mile

I love this car, the air suspension finally went and I can't justify fixing it with this many miles on it. It saved my husbands life, literally, it handled it's way out of a high speed accident. The best car, my favorite of my life so far. Handles great, is beautiful, high performance, all weather beast, we even hauled a horse trailer with it for a few years.

I love it but:

If you have to ask how much it is to repair them Don't buy one. Overall it's a real good vehicle luxury vehicle time in chains went out $7000 heater core went out after Range Rover fixed the time in chains. $3000 in on but it? Stabilizes after a while and it's a good ride.

Trying to boost the economy I see...

This website is supposed to be Kelly Blue Book, but I feel like I'm walking through a homeless encampment and at every turn I'm being asked for some spare change. How does 2 stars equal fair? I'm deducting a star for being too thick to realize that Fair Average the difference between a 2-3 star rating. "Poor" hardly sums it up .

Best vehicle ever
Pros

Fun to drive

Cons

Noisy engine due to direct injectors??

Fun to drive and definitely a head turner. I’ve owned it for 6 months and we’ll worth the price. So far so good.

Best SUV I have known
Pros

Fast, quiet, great ride, roomy and heavy duty

Cons

Expensive to fix compared to Toyota, etc.

I have owner my Range Rover HSE for 4 years. The V-8 is smooth and fast. The ride is quiet and very good. The space and cargo room are awesome. I really like the ability to raise and lower, comes in handy in snow and low parking garages. This is by far the best vehicle that I have owned.

Comfortable
Pros

Great options

Cons

Knock in motor

Auto and options are.excellent however, reliability is suspect. Great for disa led military veterans and families. Maintenance is also fairly expensive and gets poor gas mileage.
