‘Second hand cars have gone up in value, so I sold my Range Rover’ - Profit ✅
‘Then I bought while prices are high’ - Priceless 😂
I should know better
@@HighPeakAutos it’s your money Matt, I’m not one to judge, hope you and the new one will be very happy!
Man maths at its best
Stonks!
@@HighPeakAutos I've heard people say that sellers are the easiest to sell to... don't know if it's right though... 😉
When you genuinely love a car and it’s your job and hobby then you’re absolutely right to make yourself happy Matt. Life’s much too short.
couldnt say it better myself
Have to admit, after changing from the r/rover sport to the full size one, even though its a few years old, it makes me feel special every time I drive it. Like you said in one of your earlier videos, I also don't feel worthy of it, it's one hell of a car in many ways.
Totally agree
Why would driving a large box with 4 wheels make you feel special cannot understand it larger fuel costs and running cost strange how folk love material things
@@theequaliser8026 I take it you typed that comment using a large screen phone. Why would you buy a phone that big when there are smaller ones with cheaper price that works just as fine?!
I got angry when I saw the title, but I calmed down when I started watching the video. I absolutely love the interior of this RR, and dare I say it looks better than your older RR Vogue's interior. Congratulations Matt, and cheers to 20k hassle free miles in the pinnacle of luxury 4x4.
Glad you liked it!
Congrats indeed 👍
You hit the nail on the head when you called that interior "opulent" . Yes... black interiors are ok but cream/white interiors feel so classy to sit in and since watching your videos I am growing to love the full size Range Rover more than the Sport models.
The sport model has lost completely his charisma in the L405 era !!! Can’t even bother to turn my head on … the classic one looks so chic and cool at the same time … “ tranquille charismatic elegant articulate road presence nothing to prove !!! “
I literally could'nt agree more about the whole "having a nice car" thing, if you work hard, and that's you're thing screw what people think, it makes absolute sense.
Very nice new car by the way! 👌👍
Exactly! Thanks
However irrational the anger might be, once something starts bugging us it can ruin anything. As soon as you notice something like the seat warming delay it's going to eat at you until you throw 8 grand at a couple of radiators.
Haha exactly
I know exactly what you mean. I sold my Boxster for more than I paid for it, then immediately went out and bought something I could never afford to run in the UK, a V8. A Ford Falcon XR8 to be precise. It's more Australian than Mick Dundee drinking Castlemaine XXXX on Sydney harbour bridge whilst chucking a shrimp on the barbie. It's not that fast, so big that it has its own postcode, and it drinks like Oliver Reed on a pissup. But it has masses of personality, and to me that is A Very Good Thing.
My mate in Melbourne has one of those. I can see the appeal
What an EPIC color combo. Beautiful car Matt. Since this one is such low miles, I look forward to the 6 month and 12 month cost of ownership updates. 😁
Well done Matt, you deserve to treat yourself once in a while as you work very hard. Lovely cars, Rangies!
Thanks 👍
"You end up thinking to yourself 'What am I doing driving this ?"" : I bought a 7 year old, 1987 1.1 Ford Fiesta Popular as a first car with the air of keeping it for a year to get used to driving, and then getting something nice. But I got so used to it, I drove it for 6 years (no laughing !), and only changed it as my sister was selling her car, and it was too good a deal to pass up ( I "upgraded" to a 12 year old Volvo 343 ha ha ).
Nice vehicle Matt, you wear the Range Rover well. Be careful of the romantic interests chasing your Black RR though, it might not end well. Having a jumper knitted could be bliss in comparison!
Haha true
Congratulations Matt! She's a beauty indeed and I love the lighter interiors. However, I cannot help think that something has been lost in the exterior design. With the latest range rover this is even more so. The L332 will probably always be the best looking range rover mixing luxury with rugged looks.
This is absolutely stunning, congratulations on the new Rangy!
You sir are a true Petrolhead, money in the bank, money out the bank! 😂😂😂👌🏻
I lasted one year without a Lexus ISF after 5 years, love being back in one and yes I paid over but every time I drive it I just think “I love this car”.
Hahaha thats right
I’m on my fifth RR once you’ve had one your hooked . Best car ever . I’ve looked at other brands BUT nothing comes close 👍
Mercedes GLC
This is the kinda video I wanna see when I open RUclips. Such a treat!
Awesome upgrade, great catch! Always fun and never tire of the landscape. Thank you Sir :)
Glad you enjoyed it
Brilliant decision Matt, totally get the feeling is for you and not to show off, as you state, work hard so play hard, still an awkward choice for me though between this and new XC90 and Q7! All too damn good!
Dont watch Harry's Garage you'll want the 2022 starting at 94k for the SE SWB, it's amazing
I predict in 7 years time, we'll a salivating video with the 2022 model. :-)
I saw it on CarWow absolutely gorgeous
No you won't. Those are hideous.
@@cadillachernandez2271 why you think L322 more in beautifuler shape sort of ?? Than L405 .., ?? Those one are roundish like female 😊
Love a Range Rover - very nice upgrade over the 2013 car. Great color combo 👍
Nothing makes you feel as special as a Range Rover - I have had 14 of them and would never be without one. Great video Matt - enjoyed it - thanks
Congratulations! Lovely motor. I was considering selling my Landy - I bought it at the start of first lockdown when prices crashed, I could sell on now for a tidy profit after over a year's motoring... but I love it too much, so I'm keeping it. (Unless I see an L494 that I can afford - which is unlikely!)
Thats the thing. I didnt really want to sell my old one
Beautiful machine Matt 👌 I couldn't agree more with your sentiments on who a nice car is for. I couldn't care what other people think. Getting in my XF every morning is all about my individual experience being the way I like it 👍
Stunning car mate congratulations you can only replace a range rover with another to be fair. My dad's just treated himself to a 2014 XJR so he's feeling very happy with life.
Very nice. Good choice
Nice👌
Just bought myself a black Velar D300, R-Dynamic, fully loaded, 22s with the ‘deployable side steps’…love it😁
Good choice!
What a lovely example this is. Well done Matt. You will definitely enjoy it.
You know what you like. I have the same problem with Ducati's. I know their faults (well not all of them), but I like them. That is why I have three of them.
When you have a passion for something, you often get pain with it, but it is usually worth it.
Matt you are legend😂 „knitting their own jumper”. Thats one Of reasons i watch your channel. Thanks a lot for bringing me laughter.
Haha thanks for watching
Hi Matt, beautiful car. I couldn't agree more. I reckon, if you want to own and drive the car of your dreams, then you should just work hard and do it. My passion is buying and selling cars and I love the whole process of finding a vehicle, checking it out and seeing if I can derive a fair profit from selling the vehicle while also enjoying the short ownership of the vehicle. I suppose it is why I enjoy the job so much, it never feels like I am working lol. Keep up the good work Matt. I am from South Africa and would love to visit one day.
Hi Matt !
New one definitely looks Loverly
Best colour combi , as you say the light moonstone silver interior just makes the car , ok you might get a bit of blue Levi jean stain now and again but the trade off is so worth it
And I’m sure with the spec and colour combination again it will hold value
Those wheels 😍
Thanks
R
Thanks! 👍
It's a crime to wear blue jeans in a vehicle with such lovely soft and light coloured leather. Have some people no class?
You are hand down the best car reviewer on RUclips your humour and delivery it’s top class..
Wow, thanks!
Hats off to you Matt. Nice to see someone doing well. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
In the nineties I ran around in a regular red Golf. Then traded it for a red GTI and no-one noticed. I didn't care either!
You’ve made me smile and happy Matt. Awesome cars Range Rovers 👌👏👌great addition Matt, turbine style wheels look fantastic
Glad you enjoyed
Fair play mate, that is a lovely motor. I hope that one day I can own one of those myself, but always conscious of what family may think. Keep up the good work.
Congratulations Matt, it's a lovely looking car, with a smart bright interior. I like the sound of the colour, which is on the edge - not black or purple, somewhere inbetween, which is intriguing.
I know exactly how you feel about driving a JLR product. I like you took advantage of the hike in second hand valuations and recently traded my Discovery Sport for £2.5k less than I purchased it for 2 years and 30k miles ago. Our 2018 Jaguar E Pace arrives tomorrow, thankfully no time without a JLR product on the driveway. Not the brightest decision in light of price paid but still worth it. That paint is amazing. I nearly purchased an Evoque in that colour and when the sun caught it wow. The JAG is Santorini black but still smart against black alloys.
Whew!....for a moment there I thought you were going to become "less eligible" by design...good move on coming to your senses. Love that purple black; Lincoln used to offer one similar called Deep Orchid.
I've always lived by the motto that you should buy the best you can afford and that which makes you happy; driving around in a car that you dislike only gives you a negative outlook which will translate into your personal and business life, so it makes perfect sense to drive a car that you like and gives you a positive outlook on life, the benefit of that is immeasurable.
Love it!!! So nice looking. The wheels, the colour and the shape go so well together and looks so aggressive and intimidating, which is a complement. Enjoy your new car - you deserve it!
Thank you
Lovely car Matt , very envious I am.
That interior is beautiful, good choice 👌
I would like one in a nice deep cobalt blue pearlescent colour personally, with the same interior. I just think light interiors lift your mood, and "curb your enthusiasm" to feel like a boy racer.
Well done fella, certainly deserved, respect.
I always tell people who can't see through the fog of life, success and wealth mean nothing compared to the type of person you are.
Thanks!
did the same this year. bought a 17 Jag F Type R then decided to complement it a week ago with a 15 Range Rover Sport Supercharged. all lightly used 1 owner cars. JLR really makes cars that make you feel special for every occasion.
I love them. Good choice
You need to move to Alderley edge, I'm sure you'll find an orange bird to take the rangie to waitrose for you .
Well done, good move if it makes you happy. And I fully agree what you say about jealous people and nice cars. I love driving my nice car, it's like a coat you put on, it makes you feel good - you wouldn't put on a shabby one would you?
Quite right
Good for you Matt. Lovely motor and a reward for all the graft. Keep up the good work, your channel is the nuts 👍
Thank you!
With the same number plate on, no one knows I have changed cars - Just the bank manager and he is still trying to figure out why!
Well Done! I looks amazing. I drive a Nissan Leaf and I let the mother of my children drive my XC90 Inscription. I can 100% relate to your reasoning. I work so hard for my family and driving the Leaf is taking away my motivation. Need to find a way to afford another XC90 (or RR) 😂. I can’t live like this
Haha I totally sympathise
U need to get a life I drive a twenty year old car it's fine
@@toy838 Im driving my old XJ for almost 20 years. Why wasting money on sth. newer. I dont care about scratches or transporting a christmas tree... Its still elegant. Let others burn 700 Euros a months on some ugly new cars... I rather have the money invested
A completely understandable purchase . Why wouldn’t you ? Welcome BACK to the club 👍
"Range Rover.. the only car you'll ever need." - Alan Partridge
"Jean how many times, I AM NOT driving a Metro, and i'll keep saying it, til you get bored"
Although with Matt it's plural: the only cars.
@@hermanmunster3358 On the Rover 100: "they've rebadged it you fool!" (* it's Lynn, btw ;))
Prestige Black/Black is always a taxi no matter the make/model. Black/Light interior is always a private buyer and always looked after better. My A8 black/cream is awesome.
Well said
You were gonna sell the discovery to your friend, ended up selling your range just to buy another one. Total bonkers Matt, but heart overruling head is the same disease that most of us have.
Congrats on your new purchase! I was thinking what you had changed to when I read the title... well of course another Range Rover :) I absolutely adore the deployable side steps when I tried an L405 and wished more carmakers made them - happily pay 2k+ for it. Beautiful interior and new wheels are definitely an upgrade!
Thanks!
Youll defo hoover up the snatch in that Matt 🤣
Lol
That is definately not Range Rover speak. Huh!
I fully concur with your choice of a light interior with dark paint although the privacy glass is also a must have; it’s so much classier and a more pleasant place to be than double black which in my opinion is for hoodies! Thanks also for helping me justify spending so much money on a car when I’m retired and only do 8000 miles a year, a RR is probably the best boost for self esteem you can buy.
8000! I only do 4000 in mine 😀 but every trip is great. I have the light cream interior and definitely wouldn’t want the drab black leather. Privacy glass and Santorini Black is my choice.
Your quite right you know the game it’s absolutely stunning interior looks fab.👍👍👍
JLR and many other manufacturers appear to have adopted a policy of producing mega expensive, blinged up, super expensive vehicles, of a low quality, pitched at buyers who are content to pay huge maintenance and repair costs. Sustainability at its best.
Well I am surprised you sold your RR that easily which makes me wonder how long this RR will last before it too becomes expendable! Don't get me wrong Matt, I do believe that if you want something and can afford it then go for it.
Anyway, enjoy it whilst you've got it!
Nice Video! The car looks great a really honest example. I was obsessed with the P38 Range Rover, had the 30th Anniversary and Holland & Holland to name a few
I love the P38. Ive had a few of those
You should review the new Range Rover at some point, as well as the B-Max.
I'd love to
Single man? I assumed you were married with children. Good for you! Fully agree to having a RR. I love it too!
I probably should be by now
Superb video Matt. Superb car! I’m patently waiting for an acquaintance to sell me their 2013 Vogue SE 4.4L (white outside, black inside) with all the goodies. I prefer the colour combo you’ve got, and I kinda wanted a 3.0 for cost, but beggars can’t be choosers!
The 4.4 is far better so it’s worth waiting for
I usually drive an old Defender TD5 or an old 996 Carrera but used my wife’s auto new e class yesterday when I did my 4th 80 mile call out of the day to north Wales.I think I finally need heated seats, auto box , comfy seats a good stereo and space to let my belly hang so I’m looking for a grown up car and I think you’ve helped to convince me that it’ll be a Range Rover
Love the channel, your old man sense of humour 😂
I saw the title and thought you'd sold it to pay for the repairs on the £500 disco 🤦♂️ If you're working all the time might as well spend it on something you desire otherwise what is the point. I think I'll always keep a knock about car for visiting undesirable areas 😂
I have 20 inch Turbines on my L322 TD6 and they set off it's monte carlo blue exterior. Being a car transporter driver I've had the pleasure of driving one or two L405's nice as they are they don't quite feel as solid as the L322, abit like coming from a XJ40 Jag to a XJ350. I digress and love your love for the British brand. Harry's Garage.......
That does look nice. I get what you’re saying about a nice car, having recently treated myself to something that is a massive step up from my old car.
It’s such a stress free and calming experience now getting from A to B. I only use my car for long trips and I now look forward to them
If any car is on a steal to order list I imagine this one is top 5. In other words it's very desirable.
Some cars suit certain people. My brother in law had two at the same time. (I drove his 90’s V8 down to the south of France and back it nearly bankrupted me😂) he once bought a Mercedes SLK and it just didn’t suit him! He very quickly went back to a near new Land Rover Range Rover and all was good in the world again 😂 I guess you don’t need telling the Range Rover certainly seems to suit you and your latest one is a stunner 😳👍🏻 I’ve got to get myself one 🤞🏻
I admire your honesty! Life is too short if you can afford it. I live in the depths of mud infested countryside and have had to get rid of one so my old beater has gone and I've kept my best Mercedes despite it being lagged in mud most of the time as the interior is unaffected and a lovely place to be and reminds me why I bought it.
Absolutely love the New RR Matt…
U work hard & u deserve a luxurious mode of transportation.
It’s totally different from the old one,I’m assuming it’s the autobiography model ??
The interior is opulent,luxurious & almost regal & majestic…I’d go for that colour combo…there’s actually a new RR out today,u can trade it inn for that in a few years time 🤣🤣🤣💷💷💷
Haha thanks! It'll be a while before I get behind the wheel of a new one
@@HighPeakAutos maybe the lottery will be kind to you mate…but you should be content & satisfied with your new RR…it’s a beautiful example.
Jobs used to switch out his SL 55AMG every 30 days due to a loop hole. Fresh black turtlenecks, and a silver on blackSL AMG to match
Every 6 months
Hi there Matt! I'd like to ask you something about the 2 litre diesel Ingenium engine that you can find on JLR vehicles:
Is it true that the first gen XF with the PSA 2.2 diesel engine producing 200 HP is the most reliable XF, while, on the contrary, the second gen XF is a total disaster? I've read about many people having issues with it......
Thanks a lot!
Hi! Yes I believe the old 2.2 is more reliable generally. The 2.0d isnt that bad though if its looked after
I had a 2.2 and no problems! I've not had an ingenium engined car yet, I avoided it by buying an early disco sport, whilst they were still using the FL2 engine as I'd heard that the ingenium engines weren't brilliant. My mechanic has had issues with them.
I work on land rovers and jaguars and yes I can confirm the 2.2 is a much better engine the ingenium suffers with timing chain issues
If you're going to get a Jag, get a V6 or V8.
Best advice I can give with the ingenium engines is as follows:
1) If you don’t drive long distances- don’t get one.
2) ignore the two year servicing recommendations and have an oil and filter change at least once a year
3) don’t use cheap diesel (supermarkets etc) try and use premium fuel, if you can’t get access to premium fuels use millers ecomax with every tank full
4) make sure your warranty covers EGR valve, EGR Cooler and NOX sensors, preferably the DPF as well
5) keep an eye out for oil dilution issues as well!!
Grey/Silver looks lovely, much more classy than Black, plus Black seats get hot in the sun! All they need now is heated and "cooled" steering wheel😁 seriously I hate when my steering wheel is baking hot after being parked for a while on a sunny day!
8k to keep warm and be able to climb easily into those comfy seats..sounds like good value to me!! No rear wheel steer though..give it a couple of years. As I mentioned…Volvo…hateful
You are absolutely right, life is to short, I run an old Discovery 3 which will be turning into a later Range Rover soon. My weekend car if you like is a 996 Targa, I am on my 3rd 911 and each one was my last for about 2 weeks, we do have a problem 😂
My 18 year old L322 had a nice button to activate the heated seats......even when reversing ......and yes it still works as it should! Keep em come High Peak.... always like your 'land rover' reviews.
Problem with owning a Range Rover is that everything else feels crap once you’ve sold it , despite the repair shenanigans!
That’s the problem. You cannot replace them with anything better. The only things better are Bentley and RR but they’re not as practical or utilitarian
mr high peak,you can use the heated seats when reverse camera on screen, hit back button top left on screen it removes camera
I totally understand what your saying about driving a Range Rover , we’ve literally just upgraded our base model velar to a velar SE R Dynamic, with just 2000 miles on the clock, as a long distance lorry driver, working 65 , 70 hrs a week and away from home and family all week, I totally get what your saying about driving a nice car , something really satisfying about driving a Range Rover. Work hard for it , why not ??
Good choice
@@HighPeakAutos 👍👍
I’m on my 2nd Range Rover. All be it a l322 but I’m working my way towards a l405 !
I totally understand the. I can’t be without one and it helps me out of bed in the morning 👍🏼. Great content Matt
Good choice!
My first d5 Volvo 2003 had remote control pre heater Webasto . Had fun on cold days either manually turning it on or letting the timer/ sensor doing it at a a set time etc .
I was ready to swear at you in the comment.... but thank God you came to your senses and brought another one..... happy warrantied motoring dude 👍👍👍
Thanks!
You should keep the Volvo for the next lockdown round of panicking buying , you can get loads of panicking beer , pasta and bog rolls in the V70 and keep the new Range Rover in pristine condition , 🤷🏼♂️ genius !
Just wanted to say, I 100% agree with your comment regarding not being bothered at all about the prestige/kudos of owning a Range Rover. I'm like you, just really enjoy driving them.
*I've got the same mentality when it comes to rovers. I recently sold my sport. Looking for the identical rover as this one. I literally grab a coffee in the morning and stand in my spare bedroom, looking out the window into my driveway oogling at my range rover lol. Love them.*
Hahaha I think I’ll always have one
@@HighPeakAutos without a doubt. I feel lost not having one currently. Driving my F350 feels oddly depressing lol
Love a light coloured interior - you’re absolutely right. I don’t understand the attraction of black on black?
Well deserved Matt , you work hard enough for it , if I'm ever up your way I'll call in to see if you can sell me something better than my old Volvo . I get what your saying .
Cheers and enjoy .
Paul - near Birmingham !
I work at a dealership that mainly specialises in German performance cars but every now and then we get a range in and just moving then round the forecourt you can feel the smoothness in the steering and everything absolutely beautiful cars
They’re just so much more luxurious than a Q7, X5, ML etc
Hi Matt , I fully agree with your comments on black interiors . Why do so few cars get specked with black leather, white or beige gives a real feel good factor and press trial cars are always with light interiors ! Would like to hear your views
Stunning car mat absolutely love it. one day I will have one.
I have just picked up a bmw g30 520d M sport in black picked it up from Bristol street Hyundai Newcastle. After watching your g30 review lost Count how many time I pulled the trigger and bought one after buying it blind and never driven one. 10 minutes in driving on a1 I was in love what a car. Couple of faults to put right but Bristol street said book it into bmw and we will pay them. Happy days
That cheeky wink will have the ladies flocking to your feet, brilliant videos keep them coming.
Those big alloys do look great, but they produce more road noise & compromise the suspension (I find).
Looks fantastic, and I love the interior good luck with it ,all the best. Cheers Phil
Good one. I bet it’s the brand, comfort and ease of use with most new cars. Very difficult to settle down for older cars. (PS. Moved from Astra to X3)
Hi Matt
Loving the new Range Rover
Totally deserved if you cannot spoil yourself who will ?
Surely the next step is a High Peak knitted jumper and a splash of Brut
I agree with the buy it for you and not for what other people think. In fact if people expect me to get a certain car It encourages me not to get it.
Quite right
Thank you for this fascinating video. I always wondered why people bought cars at the wrong time and at the worst prices and you have helped me understand motivation to do this. I am sure that in your line of work you will sell it and make a profit, and you are an entrepreneur and have a good idea of how to play things. I would have sold my whole fleet of play cars at their max profit and waited until prices dropped and gone shopping. Great news is you have a warranty, which is one of the best ways to enjoy your RR.
Had the 3.0 6cyl petrol 2017 version with that interior.Brilliant car apart from supercharger lag which became really annoying and after 3 years got rid full JLR EV no regrets no lag!
I'm amazed that you didn't use your negotiating skills on the windscreen price. I suppose the saving will be there if you need to use the warranty.
Absolutely love this channel. Thanks for sharing 👍 🇮🇪
Glad you enjoy it!
Fair play, like everyone else I was initially concerned but well pleased with the upgrade, very nice indeed 👌
Following your review on the 4.2 sc Range Rover sport I ended up treating myself to one. I completely ignored your sound advice and bought the first one I saw as I was addicted. Thankfully 5 months later she still puts a smile on my face every morning and hasn’t put a foot wrong. Great video as always, many thanks 👍
Very good. Enjoy!
