      I've been a petrol head from birth that's for sure..! haha. On a serious note, please continue with the excellent work in the videos, I watch every single one of them. I'd love to come up to your dealership to have a look around. I'm currently running a C Class C230 V6, used to have an SLK250.

    Just subscribed to your channel. I really enjoyed this review. I recently bought a 2012 Range Rover Sport Autobiography to replace a 2008 Range Rover Sport TDV8. Very impressed so far. I agree with your views about the way they drive and the way they make you feel. Phenomenal vehicles. I have a Mercedes SL and while it's nice to drive, the Range Rover is so much more comfortable and with a better all round view. The commanding driving position is so good. When trying to pull out on a roundabout, someone is in the lane to your right you can easily see if the road is clear. Can't do that in the SL. Can just see the door handle of the vehicle next to you. Loved the setting of this review. Definitely going to visit the area and take in the countryside. Thanks again for a fantastic video.

      @@BarrieCrampton that's what I think too. Ever since I was a lad growing up in the seventies, I always wanted a Range Rover. I had my first when I was 28 and this is my fourth. Had a fair few other green oval products too. The SL was another boyhood dream. I count myself very lucky to own both. Next time I'm up your way I will try to pop in and have a look at the stock. The wife is currently talking of changing her car. All the best 👍

    Brilliant video - I have recently purchased a 2012 Range Rover sport I have a few questions if you could answer them that would be amassing
    1) how do you enable the eco shop / start feature
    2) how do you use the headlights washers?
    Thank you

      Thanks for the compliment, and thanks for watching
      Headlight Washers come on every 10th Windscreen Wash (i think) but lights have to be on
      not all have stop start, if your does there will be a button to switch it off

    Great video, I’m looking at purchasing a 2012 model. Really worried about reliability as Iv heard some horror stories. Cold you tell me what mpg you usually see on the 2012 3.0 v6 diesel models? Thanks

    • @BarrieCrampton
      @BarrieCrampton  4 года назад +2

      we have sold loads, i suppose the thing to look for is that the air suspension works, but even that is not as expensive to fix as it used to be. Just make sure that the car has a full-service history and has not been used as a working vehicle (Farmer or anyone that hauls a massive trailer round all day) and you should be ok. But to be fair all cars go wrong these days, it's just about limiting your exposure. We had a Mercedes M Class and one of the LED's in the rear light had gone, now in the old days that would have been £1 for a new bulb, but the Led's cant be replaced as its a sealed unit and even though all the others in that lamp were working (about 30) it was triggering a warning light on the dash so it had to be replaced at a cost of £390, what a complete waste of money and what an idiotic design, but that's the motor trade for you

      Barrie Crampton thanks for the response. Yes that’s very true. I hear a lot of talk regarding pre 2012 models having major crank shaft issues which have been noted by Land Rover themselves. Is this something you have come across? Would you recommend he SDV6 engine for the TDV6? Thanks

      Fantastic cars, just make sure you get one with a good service history, and make sure the air suspension works

    • @cocolocot
      @cocolocot 4 года назад +1

      Barrie Crampton thanks! Would absolutely check for full service history and probably do an MOT check as well. Regarding air suspension, is this something that is likely to go wrong?

    • @BarrieCrampton
      @BarrieCrampton  4 года назад

      it can do, and used to be very expensive. Not too bad now but still the best part of a £1000. The trouble is that no one uses it until they buy a new one then they test it to make sure it works, as its never been used it then breaks :-)

    Hi Barrie just a quick question! I have no reception with dab and tv on my 2012 sport is this software update issue. I cant seem to find anything online to say.

    • @BarrieCrampton
      @BarrieCrampton  5 лет назад +1

      kevin pirie kevin pirie cant be sure but it sounds more like an antenna issue, there is a diagnostic menu that you can access, from memory you put the turn the ignition on but dont start the car, put the radio on the home screen, put your finger in the middle of the menu band at the top and count to three, then do the same in the left hand corner, another menu should pop up, enter 753 and you are in, i think you should be able to check the signal and a load of other things too

      get one with a good service history, that has been well looked after, and they are just as reliable as any other model, just make sure to check the air suspension , and the previous mot's for play in steering advisories, make sure the previous owner is not bailing out before he has to spend money
