How bad is the transmission? If the air suspension is naughty I’ll just get some shady shop to throw some regular coils under it.

I would look SO good standing next to one on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck.

So this expensive modern SUV had depreciated down be being only twice the value of a fully loaded Mercury Sable? I think my work is done here.

I love Range Rovers but the reliability on basically all of them is supposed to be beyond the help of even Tavarish.

They are multiple disasters waiting to happen but why you are waiting they are the best cars in the world.

Nope he owns one too, I remember him mentioning it in one of his posts. You see it in this video.

So, is there anyplace you have to be, and be on time?

Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. I worked for the only Range Rover dealership in Indiana and the number of L322 Rovers that would come in with catastrophic failures would make you wonder how people actually drive them. They are truly awful, and extremely expensive to repair. There is a reason that they’re worth 1/100th of what they were new. They got much better after 2010, which is why those are still worth at least a bit of money.

I have an armored 2004 with 40k miles in blue with the cream/blue interior, nothing has gone wrong so far and it is supremely comfy. Get a low mileage one.

Life is too short to worry about reliability. Do it. :)

Have you never read any of DeMuro’s Landrover articles?

Buy through CarMax, and have a backup vehicle: No worries.
