After reading posts on LR3, it turned out that the reliability got worst. They even have an ongoing class action law suit regarding some tire issues. Yes, the X5 have issues also but not on the same league as any Land Rover's issues. If off roading is a must, the X5 cannot compete with Land Rovers. Other than that, X5 is the way to go.
If waiting and pricing is not an issue, go with the 08. |
I also wanted the rrs and was not sure about getting one due to previous oil leak problems on my wifes discovery three. Now I have a 3.0d which has an amazing ride and lots of torque. That is on the positive side. On the negative side an oil leak at 2000 kilometers which has already been in three times and still not repaired. I have been asking for a replacement but I am sure they wont.
Not so impressed with BMW this time round.
