How Range Rover Went From Off-Road Beast To Status SUV

- Опубликовано: 19 май 2024
- Sport utility vehicles are all but taking over the automotive market in the United States and the luxury segments are no exception. The Range Rover - which celebrated its 50-year anniversary in 2020 - is one of the originals. It continues to be a strong seller that commands a lot of respect.
Brands such as Porsche, Lamborghini and Aston Martin are all making sport utility vehicles - that means that the rarified air Range Rover occupies could soon see some new entries that chip away at its market share.

How Range Rover Went From Off-Road Beast To Status SUV 
Авто/Мото
You’ve forgot something, the loyalty of the customers... even when it’s not always faultless, you can see the customer’s won’t change brands.
I’ve only owned rovers. My first car was a 1965 IIa ... haven’t been cured of the affliction since.
It's a pretty toxic relationship yes.
The thing is that the people who use them to off road and know how to work on them, actually like them a lot.
When they're working, and you're not affraid to scratch them, they're incredibly capable vehicles
Agreed. My dad also belongs to this group. Not really care about features, as long as it is same brand.
I’m one of them heheeee🥰
A Range Rover, an iPhone, an iPad, a Rolex... Look mama I've made it! - That's how people value life. Lol
Damn looks like someone is broke
They have tbh.
tbh apple prducts lost their "flex value" bcoz many windows and androids products caught up but its so annoying that if you have a $1500 android phone and a iphone 7 the person with the iphone 7 is "rich"
@@pink_mellow4846 umm windows and android clearly haven’t caught up yet Apple still leads the way in mobile soc’s by a wide margin. and by releasing the M1 MacBooks they’re rattling Intel’s stronghold in the pc industry. i think Apple’s case is similar to Range Rover because their products are incredibly capable and push the limits of innovation, but Apple has now become more of a status brand in the eyes of consumers as opposed to a tech firm
@@user-gr6cy8nx3z yes apple has become more of a "status brand" thats why people keep changing it not because their phones don't last but because they want to have the newest apple phone, android has caught up alot in the years example the google pixels are as good as apple phones but again it's about what you are looking at both of them give different things, even samsung oppo etc have become way more expensive than what they used to be even dell laptops have become huge competitors on macbooks but people still think that apple products is more of a status with all those "last one to stop eating wins a iphone 12". also apple and windows use different chips like i5-i7 chips run same as the m1 chips
Let’s be honest here, it became that much more popular thanks to hip hop music videos, similar to Escalade back in the early 2000s.
👍🏿
And they are both vehicles with horrible quality
@@Eye-it-azz bro do you know how often Escalades and Range Rover break down. They literally have some of the worst servicing and reliability. People aren’t hating because they are broke, but because they know that these cars are not actually good and are just status symbols

It’s a status symbol SUV. You gotta have a lot of repair $$$ if you own one. For the high income people and the rich that’s not an issue for them.

95% of Range Rovers sold in the last 5 years are still on the road today. The other 5% made it back home.
Jokes aside, Range Rovers are actually pretty fuel efficient because of their lightweight aluminum bodies. *Check out the Range Rover fuel economy on our channel.*
no they all broken
And that doesn't take into account the percentage of owners who took their Range Rovers off-road.
😂
Lmao
I wished they were reliable tbh they probably have they best luxury suv
Bmw Audi Mercedes even a Porsche Cayenne no matter how big they are when a ranger in on the road you know the dominance and presence it brings just pure class
German SUVs (except the G-Wagen) are not really off-road worthy.

I’ve always loved the “look” of Range Rovers, they are simply put-Beautiful Vehicles. But I’ve always avoided them, because of hearing all the “reliability issues”. I’ve owned 60+ vehicles in my adult lifetime...and nearly every brand.
Last year took the plunge on a “used” Range Rover Sport.
I’m absolutely in love with the car...it is just amazing in almost every way. At nearly 70K miles...never been in the shop.
Even if it does require repair...I could care less....It’s “worth it”..
You mean you couldn’t care less.
60+ cars in your lifetime, obviously you don’t care about reliability 🤡
How much did land rover pay you?
Don’t you worry, not if it’ll be in the shop, just when.
Lies again? Ramenten Rakuten Sperm Vagina
We owned a Land Rover LR4 in Saudi and it was the best vehicle we've ever owned. The only downside was that it cost me 3 times as much as a Toyota to have the car serviced.
Which type you got ? Sport ? Which model .. I’m in Saudi Arabia i want to buy one but they told me it’s not reliable car .. and can’t stay with you more than 3 years.. and you will sell it
14:11 Tata motors worth nothing without jlr....😂😂😂😂
Joke of the decade😂😂😂
It's true. Tata Motors have the respect they have just cuz of JLR Legacy.
@@singhshobhit11
Ok..then you have to research on Tata motors...
Upto some extent I agree to his points...mainy in passenger car market, Nexon or harrier is based on rovers.
Tata Motors is one of the biggest heavy vehicle manufacturer in entire asia.
Their small cars are not good, but they produced some excellent SUVs in past like the siera and safari.
Pure western propaganda against Eastern company.
Read somewhere “If you want to go for a long road trip, buy a Range Rover. If you want to come back, buy a Land Cruiser”
Xd
😉😉😉😜😜😜💣💣💣
Land cruiser anyday everyday
or Lexus GX 570
Yep!
In Korea, there's an old saying.
"There are 2 types of Range Rovers, one coming out of a repair center, and one going in."
This is one of the best cars I have ever driven!
My boss has the Range Rover Sport 2019 model with the 5.0 V8 Supercharged with 504 Hp!
It’s like flying a rocket, danm it’s fast!
Have you ever heard of a car called BMW X5M (2019 - 2022 model)?
Ancient middle eastern proverb: If you want to go to the desert, take a Land Rover. If you want to make it back, take a Land Cruiser.
as a middle eastern I can confirm this
I didn’t understand. Do you mean like land cruiser are better? Or Range Rover isn’t reliable for long drive?
@@robinsingh4373 it's a joke for broke people
So where does the Land Cruiser come from?
According to Jalopnik that Land Rovers are for fancy idiots and Jeeps are for idiots. Lol.
Because you need status to be able to afford to fix it when it breaks down.
Gotta get that Carmax bumper to bumper warranty
I remember 1985 K5 blazer, you could sit on the radiator with your feet inside and work easy on a small V8.
$25 2 bolt 2 hose fuel pumps, On The Engine, were standard everywhere.
The Volkswagen Beetle was a Tank @ too.
36hp "lawnmower" engine.
They were Everywhere.
Range Rover are so bad they don’t even offer warranty unless you buy it used
@@yungactivist It’s a premium brand. What does that mean? That if you can afford buying that car, you can afford fixing it.
@@Pea-G
"Premium" doesn't necessarily mean "the best".
Take Apple for example.
You'll get a better PC (hell even a gaming one) for the price of a single Mac.
Same goes for their phones or the headsets they sell where you'll get better headsets or speakers from Sony, JBL, Harman Kardon or even Bose.
"Tata is nothing without range rover" according to CLSA ltd (a hong kong brokerage owned by citic group, a chinese state owned investment company).
Fair enough 😂
Right 😂
I was laughing when i heard that. 😂
Hahaha he thinks TATA is only about cars 😂
😂😂😂
Actually its true. It’s worthless without JLR. Look at the valuation if JLR is sold/taken off
Having a Range Rover says that you have money because only you can afford to repair this thing every time it breaks down.
Can say the same for Apple, they constantly have design faults with expensive out of warranty repairs, brand power and image is what everyone wants because no matter what you do its power.
@@jonnymacn9457 I have a lot of Apple products and I have never taken them into a shop. My 6yr old Macbook Pro is still running great, I just wish I bought it with a bigger hard drive. No issues with my iPhones that didn't result from tons of drops.
@@quietcorner293 my 2012 rmbp had screen issues they sorted it out for free thankfully years ago, but the keyboard disasters, cable issues and overheating to name a few just shows that even halo brands get it wrong but we buy them for the brand image and functionality.
@@quietcorner293 A lot of people have range rovers that never break down.....go think
I doubt the info that Tata Motors is nothing without the Rover brand, its India's second largest producer of consumer vehicle and first in commercial with exports quite big. Post taking up JLR Tata has brought in very good cars for India too which puts safety first (unlike other brands) eg: Altroz, HBX(to be launched soon), Tiago, Tigor, Harrier and iconic safari coming back in line up. Harrier uses the same build architecture of Land Rover but at a smaller ticket price.
its reality tata motors is nothing without JLR. JLR is biggest portion of their sales, tata motors is just very small in front of it. Just dont be illogical that its tata so it gonna be big.
tata motors dont even have 10% market share in indian passenger market right, just bec they launching cars doesnt makes them the best sellers.
they are still behind maruti, hyundai who controls more than 50 to 60 percent of the market.
Tata is good. But only for India.
Na bro, JLR is key for Tata motors...but it's not much to the big Tata conglomerate
I've been to India and I know Tata is huge in India, but I doubt even 5% of Europeans and Americans have even heard of it. That's what it's implying, not only in financial terms, but in brand popularity. Now more and more westerners will hear of Tata because of Range Rover.
@@andrewhartmangunsmith2755 tata sons is one of the biggest conglomerate in the world,there are 100's of companies, brands & subsidaries under the control of tata empire. Tata motors is a small part of tata, one among the 100 companies. Most of products including tea, steel etc in Europe are produced by tata. It owns many brands in Europe, America & Asia etc

BList anyone that can afford the maintenance costs.
I own 4 Range Rovers. 1 is the SV Autobiorgaphy LWB version, and a brand new Range Rover 50th Limited Edition model. I also have 2 Range Rover Sports one Hybrid Autobiography, and the other is a SVR. Love them to absolute hell!
Nice Fleet.
I’ve dreamed of this car since i worked at Sonic at seventeen years old. I am now 38 and I will own this truck before I leave this earth
i honestly don’t understand everyone defaming the range rover’s reputation online but my family has has over five range rovers and from 2010 and on the quality, durability, and performance has drastically improved. I honestly think it is the best suv at its price point on the market. Perhaps it’s just me but range rovers has been very reliable. The build and drive quality is sublime. Maybe actually drive one before slandering it.
Some of it comes down to model and luck. My parents had a Range Rover and loved it, few years later they got another, and it broke down all the time. They ended up selling it quickly and leasing them. Now, they just lease all the new ones so they don’t have to deal with reliability issues.
@@ryanmccaffery9027 but yes I see your point definitely, but I think that applies to all cars not just rovers
@@christopherl5456 yes and no. For luxury German cars, always lease. I love BMWs and that’s what I personally drive. Had an old 328 that broke down all the time but I loved the car so I also just started leasing them. If you have your own business, it’s also a good tax right off. However, reliable cars that don’t cost a lot to maintain don’t need to be leased because you pay a premium to drive the car with free service but never truly own it. With a BMW, it’s worth it because if something goes wrong, you’re screwed, but leasing a Volkswagen is just throwing money away.
LMAOOOOOOOO
lol, your family has had over five range rovers because they keep breaking down
I fell in love with range rovers before I even knew they were a popular brand. I just remember thinking that their design was so elegant, and had a bit of uniqueness as well which really appealed to me. So I think there is also Range Rovers owners who buy for that reason. Not that I'll ever be able to afford one though haha.
Yeah, I remember watching the movie "The Kingdom" and thinking that is one hell of a car. Have loved them ever since.
I remeber I saw my moms bosses range rover sport and it looks so cool inside and out
It was always a popular brand, the only difference is that it was popular around those that could buy them cash and treat them as a commodity.
It’s really a status symbol
Why wouldn't you be able to buy one? The people who own one are not smarter then you. Change your mindset. Everything is possible:)
When I was young, I thought range rover was related to the Mars rover...
I thought land rover is used in road building works
me too :D
Lmaooo
Interesting and nicely unbiased report. I’m a Brit that lives in both U.K. and USA. I’ve owned a Land Rover discovery (LR2] since 2004 and other than standard maintenance it’s been fine, even though been abused off-road. In parallel, also owned 2 x RR Sport, RR Vogue, Jaguar F Pace and now have Discovery 5, MY2020. Did any break down at side of road?? No never. Did any have small niggles.. for sure yes, but so did my Porsche Cayenne / BMW 3 and 7 series sedans. Look guys, you pays your money and makes your choice.

I took my Range Rover sport autobiography off Roading and I’m not gonna lie. I wasn’t shocked because I knew what the car was purpose to do but I was very surprised it did that so well it’s insane. It’s ludicrous does everything car it goes fast. It’s amazing at offloading it’s a luxury it’s a status symbol, and it’s really fun to drive if you have the money I definitely recommend you buy one
a similar trend can be seen on the Mercedes-Benz G Class ... the old ones were meant to take the beating of rough offroad conditions, while new ones might technically be able to go there, but no-one would take their luxurious G Class in actual offroad conditions today
By being a real off-road car manufacturer.
Each range rover spend at least 50% of its time off roads... At the mechanic's
"They had us in the first half, not gonna lie".

Underrated comment. 🤣🤣
It’s a real shame.
As a master tech here youre not wrong!🤣 I left toyota to work at land rover to keep busy
5 Range Rovers in since 2004 and they’ve only needed routine maintenance. No complaints here.
So how many miles was the highest one before selling if you said one since 2004 I would have more faith but no matter what brand car you drive if bought five new in that time you should have any issues
@@monicachandler4655 I trade regularly and don’t put on many miles. It’s wise to move on from any car after the warranty expires.
Does that mean you've had each Range Rover an average of 3 years each? Three years isn't long enough to know how well built a vehicle is. But glad that they've held up. Would love to own one, but not enough money. :)
@The Redmond-Beam Family I’ve been trading one for the next
So when are you to going to start driving them?
I been against RR for YEARS! But after testing driving several lux SUVs I ended up with the sport! I got it for me...the body, the ride, the feel. I love it.
My neighbour has a Range Rover Autobiography, it looks amazing! I wish to buy one before turning 35 😅

As a full time mechanic all I have to say is;
only buy brand new as a second vehicle.
Give it back before warranty is up.
Those cars can bankrupt someone who could only afford in the used market.
The Toyota Camry or a Honda Accord is a sign of true status of being sensible and modesty.
Land Rover is a symbol of more money than brains

Well, status symbol is very important to many people. It's about keeping up with the Joneses and showing people how successful you are.
Two things: first I don’t care who is making them Land Rover is an iconic British brand.
Second: there have been a number of really good American SUV’s over the years. The problem is they can’t leave well enough alone. Change for the sake if change is idiotic. I owned and drove a 1994 Chevy Suburban 2500 6.5 litre turbo diesel 2 wheel drive with all leather interior. I drove the vehicle for 21 years and loved every minute of it. In all that time the only thing I did other than regular maintenance was to buy two new batteries for it at the 10 year point. That vehicle took me and my family absolutely everywhere we wanted it to go. It got surprisingly good mileage both highway and around town. It had loads of power for passing on the highway and for off-roading. It handled well on dirt roads including crossing streams and going through mud. I used it for camping, hunting and general exploring and without fail it did it all. This was all done with only 2 wheel drive. I credit its weight (heavy) with a powerful engine for such incredible performance. Of course the first time it needed new tires I skipped over the street tires it came with in favour of some very knobby all terrain tires. That choice in tires made it perform off-road even better than before and yet it still got good mileage on-road. It had more room inside than any vehicle I’ve seen then or now. And it had the absolutely most comfortable seats in any vehicle I’ve ever sat in. When my family from the U.K. came over to visit they referred to it as an “estate” car lol. As we toured all around the Pacific Northwest they behaved as if we were in a Rolls Royce or Bentley lol. When my dad died in his will were instructions that said if I didn’t buy a brand new truck for myself then I wouldn’t get the rest of my inheritance lol He new I would probably drive that vehicle for another 21 years lol So I did what was required and bought the new truck, but I kept that suburban in the family lol. I gave it to my son who is now raising his family with that vehicle lol. He and his wife love that thing! lol. It had just over 200,000 miles on it in 2015 when I gave it to my son. Now almost 7 years later it has over 300,000 miles on it and the only thing done to it besides regular maintenance was to replace the batteries again lol. That’s what I mean about change for the sake of change in that they had the perfect vehicle but changed it anyways. It’s a darn shame too. At least I get to see it every time I go to my sons house or he comes to mine lol. And amazingly even the paint (champagne colour) has lasted all this time. That Suburban is now 28 years old and still going strong. You gotta love a well built diesel engine. Cheers
Definitely need a off road car for a whole foods and trader Joe's parking lot. 😂
I live next to a volcano and a lot of people go to the forest sorrounding it. I've seen Defenders, G-wagens, Jimnys/Samurais, an UAZ and some good 'ol Jeeps. You know what I haven't seen? Range Rovers. Their owners are so posh they don't even take them to the city park.
for some reason this reminds me of the time I see these high dollar SUV's outside of dollar general. like... you pay all that much to look fancy just to blend in with the not-fancy?

The best vehicle for a *Bumper To Bumper* warranty :)
There's nothing like the presence of the Range Rover but sad it is indeed unreliable
Makes a great "presence" as driveway ornament. Knew a guy that had one . He said he got fed up with every time he took it in to the dealership the bill was $1000.00.They always found something wrong with it. He got fed up and bought a Lexus RX 350. He says much better he takes it in for an oil change and before he is finished his complimentary coffee they have the oil changed.No other repairs.

imo the G Wagon has more "presence" than the Range Rover, probably more reliable as well. To be fair, the Range looks like any other SUV.
@@lettuce1305 your opinion though

The negative comments remind me of anti iPhone users lmao 😂 it’s just a car. If it’s not for you, it’s not for you.
Awesome! 😂
Fair comparison.
There's nothing special about an iphone

Loved this clip...only thing...a small part of me was waiting and watching for my ride to make the clip. The forever LR4/Discovery 4.
Tata is stepping up right now. They're really pushing their products, especially in Africa.
I mean if you want the status of the guy that’s always on the side of the road then sure go for it
many people end up leasing expensive cars nowadays, so repair bills and msrp doesn’t matter at all

😂😂😂😂

Comments from people who can't afford them.
After watching this i want to buy one, oh wait!.... I don't have much money
There’s your status symbol 😆
Tata can
They are more affordable than you think....go buy one...fantastic
Thank you Land Rover for my defender and thank you Tata for my SVR
SUV not SVR
@@manojramesh4598 no it’s a SVR
JLR is just 10-15% of the Tata Motors portfolio, Tata Motors major revenue comes from its commercial/industrial vehicle arms
Range Rovers were ALWAYS, as in, since the first one, a status car.
“And Kim kardashian” like who cares lol
Exactly... they have more plastic in them compared to the rangerover vehicles
@@vishnunirvana701 🤣
He was just showing how much it showed status.

I'm in love with land rover Evoque ❤️
The latest Evoque is wonderful, even more stylish
My dad has had over 15 Range Rovers. We have had so many JLR products in the years why you wonder? Because you feel comfortable in them you feel relaxed. One has never ever broken down and never had a dashboard warning light on. Perfecto reliable and bloody brilliant. Does what it says one the tin. What all British products should do. A Range Rover, Land Rover and Jaguar will never let you down.
I bought my first one and it’s awesome - comfortable for 5 people and our dogs, luggage, can go off road anywhere and it’s both fast and actually pretty economical. If you think it’s unreliable I would point you to a lot of other unreliable cars. It’s an amazing family car really.
Yes. There are a number of other "unreliable cars". I wouldn't buy the either.
@@cats0182 LoL for sure!
Others try but nothing ever beats the Range Rover.

@Simpa Luyolo he has a 2007 land rover so probably
Yes, he means in terms of repairs and maintenance.
I love them. I keep going to them when they breakdown. Keeps me in a job.
I had a 1995 land rover discovery with the CD changer. It was expensive to maintain in high school.
"there's been quality issues with our cars and we've worked to resolve those"
You did? When? And I don't think it worked 😂
I had one in late 90’s with major electrical issues like door locks flipping unlocked when you’re on the highway. Issues like that are nonexistent today. They just need a good EV at this point.
@@Bxconnect exactly. Yes, they're expensive to develop, but it's not like they're trying to keep it under 30k, they (and they're customer base) can afford that. Plus, reliability would almost be irrelevant since there's so little that can even go wrong with an EV.
@@mattr0103 to own a RangeRover, you have to have a capital to own 10 of them lol...
friend's XJ was at the dealership parking lot longer than him driving the car
Range rovers are junk. They literally don’t last a week without check engine lights.
@@angelgjr1999 absolutely right
The people who are saying how unreliable they are probably have never driven a land driver in there life, in 6 years of driving one I haven’t had a single foult with the car 👍
What’s a foult?
@@jasonmamedov6769 What's a land driver?
i think you had a stroke or the land driver is forcing you to write this? blink twice.
I love my ‘95 classic but I might need to update it. The G wagons and new electric trucks are too cool
I feel proud that this is an Indian brand. 🙏RATAN TATA🙏 JI🙏🙏
The prestige is in the British heritage. Tata indigenous made cars are cheap mass production for the Indian market. It's a British brand.
Range Rover is an Indian brand and this brand comes under the Tata Motors, which is an Indian brand.
🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻
JLR is British brand owned by the India company TATA !
Now these old times British brand .old times build quality not good .and people not but these car that's why whole company sold to tata grp..
The Velar is one of the best SUV’s ever designed.
Not one of the best at all in my opinion. It is simply The Best SUV Design of All Time
I love my Range Rover Westminster. No issues. I don’t think there is another vehicle with this much luxury in it without looking flashy.. Everyone looks at the guy in a Bentley, but Range Rovers blend into the crowd. Most people don’t know how cool they are unless they have one.. if you can only have 1 vehicle, this is the full package
Said every leaser ever
@@THESLlCK Ive loved range rovers since i was a kid in the '70s when the police used them in Jamaica. Was totally in love with that whisling sound they produceds back then. and they only got better.
One of my fav cars🖤
Will definitely get this beast one day🔥
I have a 2008 LR Lr3, I must say it's well built, such as no noise in the cabin, outside all attachments in tact.
However the dash is cracked ,
it has over 188 thousands miles
Motor and transmission still good smooth running.
Need the air conditioner repaired
Alone with the drivers side window doesn't comes down.
There's other things that has been repaired. I would be extremely grateful if someone from land rover could help me with this problem. I love this vehicle
FIX YOUR VOLUME LEVELING.
Yes bro there editor noob
Here in Qatar it is every where you can find in roadsides parked
I’m fully on the SUV wave. Bought a model y this month and I’m loving the extra space. I think a mid size suv is just so much more functional for the average person than a sedan. Range Rover will definitely have an uphill battle towards electric I’m sure, but how quickly they adapt will dictate whether or not they make it. Car companies without flushed out electric options will be suffering come 2025. I love having an electric car and everyone is going to want one in a few years, especially with the luxury of at home charging (pretty sure Range Rover owners will have garages!)
That's interesting because I believe that once the car market is flooded with second hand SUVs the prestige status will burnish. Every thing about owning them is more expensive down the higher cost of the tires. I reckon their resale value will make them have a higher depreciation rate. Lot of car park buildings struggle to accommodate them. Compact SUVs have the interior space of a hatchback and the parking space of large sedan. Yer you sit higher and so you feel more seen on the road. Wait until there's the latex crisis and people skimp on having tires replaced and the class of vehicle starts to make a star appearance in crash statistics. Suddenly cars with 16inch wheels look appealing again. Also could see these types of cars being targeted by opportunists and insurance companies hiking up the premiums. Maybe that's why only the rich can afford them.
Just added the Land Rover LR 4 to our fleet. To me, it's the Ultimate Seven Seater SUV. The Cherry on top is the Heated Seats, Heated Steering Wheel, and the Refrigerated Center Console. "Luxury Trim Package"
Tata motors worth nothing without jaguar landrover biggest joke 🤣🤣😂 they have zero knowledge about tata's .
TATA today is more like a mixture of all industries, conglomerate. Originally started in British India, now I guess it is everywhere in the world which is good.
And you have zero knowledge of how they came to this conclusion
JLR.....most unreliable
Because of JLR , Tata is popular.
@Kartikey Kasniya I know, and you should know that JLR is much better than half of Tata subsidiary’s, world knows Tata most of us because of JLR
Decades ago off-road vehicles were tools, now they’re driven by tools
This.
Never could put it any better...
For those who want a true off road vehicle, just buy a Toyota land cruiser
@@abysstoid1503 or an old defender? Or is that more of a farm vehicle
I recently bought an '08 Sport. It came with a meticulously documented maintenance history recording thousands and thousands spent in repairs and servicing. Some of the bills... Oh, lord. Scary. But I bought it anyway figuring that at least the former owner had been willing to spend the money. I get warning lights that come and go, a screen that disappears and reappears, wildly varying fuel consumption (quite acceptable on the motorway - 'disappointing' around town). But I really like it. I like the high seating position. I like that it looks a bit timeless. It's very comfortable / plush but also utilitarian. And all for under £6,000. I'm bitten by the bug and am now eyeing the 405 series. That or I'll wince when road tax comes around and move on to something else.
The 2021 Range Rover is the ultimate luxury SUV in our book. We'll be buying one new later this year. :)
Great! Go for it 👍
Get two. To use another one while the first is in the shop getting fixed.
@@mrbubbles6961
How much experience do you have of actually owning one?
Why are used ones so cheap? Go for it get one
Absolutely happy with mine. Everywhere I went, no matter what conditions, it never broke. Just fill it up with fuel and it goes everytime
You enjoy driving bus? Go get a real car Porsche Cayenne or Macan if you like to drive
I definitely enjoy mine. Never had an issue. Its a white 09 hse. Cream interior. It still turns heads all day.
Give it some more time and it will eventually fall apart.
My dad has only ever driven range rovers since the 70s. Funny cause as a 20 something year old he was into 4wding, fishing, etc. Then as it became more luxury he got older and wealthier. It is weird its like they just kept updating their car perfectly for my Dad. I remember as a kid nobody had a range rover. Then around the 2000s boom they were everywhere.
They just followed the boomer demographic. Prior to the 2000s boomers were in their 40s. So they drove sports cars. Thats why there were so many more sports cars through the 70s, 80s and 90s.
I like range rovers and their interiors. That's why I always rent one when I travel to another state. If only they were reliable I'd buy one.
Yea Tata motors probably worth nothing there at that time, but here in India its was, is and will be a jewel 💎
Owned two and can honestly say they are beautiful and have an extremely relaxing and smooth ride but have been just as happy with a Volvo and Acura with much less maintenance issues. There are at least two major issues with Land Rovers every year.
You can't really find anything in a Range Rover that you won't find in a Volvo or a BMW.
In my opinion, Volvo is the way to go, or any of these brands positioned on the "lower end" of premium.
You'll get the same features for a much lighter hit on your bank account, bang for your buck.
@@thetrustysidekick3013 I agree, so true. The one thing the Rover has going for it though is comfortability and smoothness. However having to get new tires and brakes every year or two isn’t worth it.
@@AFCompany And if you're serious about going offroad with your SUV, you can always just get a Land Cruiser or A Jeep.
@@thetrustysidekick3013 many people don’t off-road at all with newer cars, companies like Land Rover and Jeep have turned their off-road cars into road cars, but they’ve given it that off-road capability for the people who need it, why do you think jeep offers sahara and rubicon
@@thetrustysidekick3013 jeep is debatably just as unreliable as JLR nowadays with the involvement of fiat Chrysler even the few rubicon’s i know of in Ireland break down in ways you wouldn’t expect
Watching this on the bus, looked up and I saw a Range Rover SVR at the traffic lights 😂😂
The most comfortable car in the world, I have driven so many cars in my life {Porsche, Rolls-Royce Bentleys and more} I think Rangerover is my all time favorite. You never get car sickness from it. The best model is 2017 model big range rover with big seats. The hardware of the car is very durable, the software electronic system is not because people tend not to use them. If you keep taking the car for off road rides between now and then.... No problem.
