Former Q7 driver currently with the L494 Range Rover Sport - love the feel and look of the Range but absolutely hate the constant feeling that everything that goes wrong could cost an arm and a leg (or crankshaft) to fix. Summary - makes you feel wealthy while categorically ensuring that your family can never recover from the financial decision to buy one...
The quality of these videos are just something else. Looks really nice on a 4K QLED display, and some of the shots are just spectacularly beautiful. The background sceneries with the car as the focal point is just yoh, chef's kiss. Very well done!
Great video. Fantastic footage, well suited to the RR Sport. I recently purchased the D350 Autobiography, exactly the same interior which is such a refreshing change to black. The D350 is returning 45+mpg. Amazing car. Delighted with it.
This is the GOAT Review ever. May you please review a Drag Race style Comparison btween the Lambo Huracan STO VS Porche 911 GT3 RS. This Friday please.
Being a Range Rover owner (big body) no matter how nice it is , it really is an expensive mistress , no matter which Land Rover produce . They love to be fondled by men with dirty hands , yes they all have a codependant relationship with the workshop , at first , you just take it in and they sort it , after a while you get tired of it and realise the car has been cheating on you all the time .
British designer and made in the UK too. Imagine all those hard working Brits drinking tea and dunking biscuits while they make amazing Indian cars 😛🤣🤣
Land Rover should make the off road stuff optional in all cars except the Defender and Discovery to reduce prices. The 1% who actually take these cars off road can option the stuff. I'm happy you didn't beat the reliability drum because Range Rovers are only unreliable to people who can't affords to maintain them properly.
Reducing prices isnt the point of the market this is pitched to. Its either you can afford it or you cant. Luxury brands dont have sales unless something has gone horrendously wrong.
How the presenter didn't talk about those noisy wipers in a R2.5 mill car is beyond me but if indeed they do make so much noise I think that's unacceptable. Any car above R500 000 shouldn't have noisy wipers....
Good enough technology, great interior, enough power and off-road capabilities. Nice. But the picking up of the nose during acceleration and those small tail lights, a useless wireless charger and that huge screen that will have prints all over. Nah. I’d still buy it though.
The Range Rover Sport 🥺🥺 I would sell my soul for it. The design is perfect, even better than the Germans, minimalist yet detailed and simple. ❤ I would definitely buy it besides the so called reliability image of Land Rover but it's like that ex you keep on going back to
"Im gonna survive"...yeah...when its working...when its not working,old isuzu pass thru you on the side of the road with your range rover waiting to be towed 😂
For 2.4Mil, I would expect more. Useless phone holder, wireless charger holder not rubber. Besides, it will be worth R500k in 5 years... Used to be a fan...
@@Carscoza as a disco and land cruiser owner, it's the greatest thing. It's like braking your little toe. You don't know how much you use it until you can't.
The first SUV in the 2000s to introduce the "bully-ish gangster look??" I'm sorry but what about the 2nd generation of Cadillac Escalades? the G55 AMGs of way back then or better yet, the 2003 Hummer H2 that graced pretty much every chart-topping hip hop and Big Nuz music video??
There are people who prefer to use the money to buy this car to buy assets instead and use the money they get monthly to pay for this car so when they are finished they still have money coming in at the end of the month👀
I'll never buy this car cash, you don't do such on a depreciating asset. Buy an asset that appreciates in value like property then use the monthly rental you recieve to pay for your car. Five years later you have a paid off car and you still have your property.
How do you define "best?" To you, it may be a spec sheet, to Ciro, it may be its road manners, to Nicol, it may be efficiency. To me, it boils down to longevity, reliability, comfort, practicality and, essentially, total cost of ownership. You won't be able to test my criteria in anything less than a decade. As time needs to prove the product. The assumption that Japanese appliances are "better," falls flat in the face of case studies proven that those don't fare better in terms of reliability. Only deluded fanboys are so clouded by their own biases, that the can't discern facts from opinion. Best was my old Mercedes-Benz Diesel with OM616 engine. Sold at 768,000, no repairs ever needed. That's best, to me.
I bought a new 2024 Range Rover SV. Can't start the vehicle. Can't open the doors. The vehicle has been with Jaguar Land Rover Sandton for over 60 days and they can't resolve the problem. Jaguar Land Rover South Africa is not interested. So going legal. Stay away from the vehicle. Stay away from the brand - if you have a problem, you're on your own.
It is opulent ill give it that, the Chineese can do it cheaper but in a market like this, that point is moot. I cant help but thinking what on this car is going to break first, the aircon display screen? The sensor that controls the back axle? Im not saying this out of spite or stereotype, but 3rd hand experience. But again, unless youre financially suicidal you can afford those dramas.
A good mix of good looking and chinsy design elements. Screams BEE and money pit. Never met a nice person who bought a new RR. Worst resale value you can get so makes a good used buy.
Thats the nature of luxury cars, their value drops like a stone off a 5 storey building. In 3 years the price of this will probably be on the border of sensible, but even then make sure its checked out properly because at that point thats when the electrical gremilins start showing themselves.
It's not worth the money I'm afraid. Most SUVs have as much luxury as this with even more tech and are a fraction of the cost. Land Rover mark these cars up by 150% and sell them just because ofbthe name. Jaguar dropped its sedans (big mistake) and also only concentrates on models with shared platforms from Range Rover. Talk about skinning a sheep twice. I would never buy one of these because when they're 5 years old and depreciated close to where they should have been when sold new, they break. Air suspension issues, electronics noblonger working and massive maintenance bills on suspension, engine and tech. Blech 🤢
People who can actually afford this car dont really care about any of that. They care about the badge image, the back seat space and amenities and what is next from that brand in 2 the 5 years when they change it.
There's something about watching videos of what you cannot afford
True, early in the morning listening carefully like I'm about to buy🤣🤣

Say that again 😂
Hits different 😂😂😂i NEVER watch reviews of affordable cars😂😂 only high end cars as if I'm rich

How's that different to Audi?
Land Rover have really stepped up their game on this one, perfect vehicle 👌
How's the reliability now?
@crazygrey8706 class, off-road capability, space, power, comfort, technology etc you name it💪

Filmed in Constantia. Definitely a gangster paradise vehicle there
Best person for a car review, well done
Wow, thanks!

Just need to know how reliable this is. Currently have a 2020 GLE. Would love to upgrade to something different like this range rover sport

Aren't the wipers supposed to be quite on this premium SUV??😅😅
😂😂😂
The interior is perfect better than a BMW X5
But is uses old x5 v8 😂😢
The previous model was so sexy and so beastly the newer one isn’t as beautiful as the previous one , so if I was buying I’d buy a 2021 SVR.
I totally agree with you. That angle is only 90 degrees mate

I would still got for the q8 but this is a worthy contender.
One day one day
It does have some niice touches but the pricetag is something else. They have presence on the roads.
Plenty of options for that money.
Yes,like a house😂
Is the new Range Rover Sport just the right amount of British gangster to star in a Guy Ritchie film?
Is this the PHEV
@@thetad1242No. The one Ashley reviewed is the 3.0 diesel with 257kW and 700Nm. Particularly the D350.
Ash the color looks like Burgandy
Yup.
Constantia locations . Lots of crooks there 😂
I'm a beemer guy but this one is lit.. Yooooh
It is STUNNING
Yeah Ash, more like a Tendaprenuer mode of transport me thinks.
Great review, as usual.
What a great review 👏
I honestly cannot understand why the RR Sport exists. If you cannot stretch the budget to get a proper Range Rover, a Defender makes much more sense.
I think it exists for people who want a sporty SUV not necessarily a serious off roader.
@@danielmosinyi7163 I think the real Range Rover is just a sporty as the "sport". If you want a sporty SUV, I would rather go for the Cayenne Turbo...
It's now owned by Tata and it's powered by a bmw engine. Should it still be considered British?
It has been owned by Tata since 2008…
British designer and made in the UK too. Imagine all those hard working Brits drinking tea and dunking biscuits while they make amazing Indian cars 😛🤣🤣
Claret is like dark purple Maroon & Burgundy like Dark Red Turquoise light blue Teal Greenidge & Magenta Blue wish .
Land Rover should make the off road stuff optional in all cars except the Defender and Discovery to reduce prices. The 1% who actually take these cars off road can option the stuff.

Most cars pick up the nose when they accelerate hard, and since we are in the era of touch screens it's Inevitable, just like your phone.

Nothing feels like a range Rover spot

If range rover have the british gangster look,whats the german gangster drive?
New 7 series 😅

Made by Indians now also
@@sebbya8370 where did you get that information?
So classic 👌 ✨️ 🙌 I'm fan of Audi
I'm in love❤
Another amazing vehicle thats abandoned its best feature, the split tailgate. 😢😢😢
A split Tailgate does make for a nice place to enjoy a picnic or a view.

If 2.4 mill is a bit too much for you.... what the heck?? 😂 how do people have this kind of cash?
Thats one of the questions in this life you are better not knowing the answer to.

Deep red wine the rich red leather.
Why use 6 feet when this an south African channel we not in USA
Probably because there are tons of American subscribers 😉
😂 😂 It looks like it comes fromthe underworld
beauty
Maroon interior nowadays looks average, i bet on Range looks great
never buy Range Rover second hand with more than 100K on the clock. thats all i can say
My neighbours RR has 300k 🤯
Not for sale! 🤣
R2.4 million 🥹
Where’s the other presenter 😕
Life is unpredictable,no one knows what tomorrow brings
That's why yesterday is my favourite day 🤣
This car is the reason why I hate the automobile campany
If you have to finance this, you don't afford it

Range Rover is owned by TATA Motors. Not a British car anymore.
Owned by Tata yes but it's run, designed and built by the British. Tata just pays the bills and takes some profit.

@@mindfreeze0838 Always keep an extra 30% of the purchase price aside for repairs with these when used.
Unreliable and now so easily broken into electronically, they can't give them away in the UK since nobody wants to insure them. Pass.
