I have both a 2008 Full Size Range Rover and a 2011 X50. The range rover dealer here in Miami is absolutely horrible. They have not fixed issues, then called me to complain when the survey comes back negative.

I have not taken the X50 for service yet because Ive had no problems. Im sure that I can also encounter bad service there.

I would not equate the car to the service at the dealer as they are very different. I would say that IF you buy a car and CARE about service, then buy according to the dealer you have a relationship with........

Sadly that has nothing to do with the car itself.

Funny you complain about an ipod adapter for the X50 - every try to get an ipod working in a range rover? Cost me $750 and all I could do was play 5 playlist that had to be numbered 1-5

Just to keep things in perspective here.
