My 2006 Range Rover Sport Supercharged was a NIGHTMARE! I only had it about 3-4 months! Bought it on a Saturday night, and it was towed into the dealership on Monday morning. When I would put the car in Reverse, the A/C would blow warm (the dealership had NO idea why, and could never fix it)!! Adjustable air suspension would raise, lower and drop on it's own. Navi screen/radio/CD/Sirius would freeze without any warning. Various warning lamps and messages. Car would not start at least 2-4 times a week. Just dead....and then 15/20 mins later, it would fire right up!

My 2008 Full Size Range Rover HSE was leaps and bounds better, but still in the first 2 months the steering column and seat memory ECU went out (and it took 2 months to get the part). It was bad, because the steering wheel would lower itself to the lowest position....and I had to drive the car with the steering wheel hitting my legs (and it was hard to get out of the car)!!!

I love the looks of Range Rover, the ride quality, the comfort, performance, heritage... but I think it has made my list (along with SAAB) as NEVER AGAIN!!! :-o

But wait.... Jeremy Clarkson thinks the gods spent a few days in the Range Rover HQ when those were made... Are you telling me I can't believe everything I see on TV?

^^^ Very good point, he took a shit on both the X5 M and also X6 saying they are crap and RRS is the best thing

Interesting (recent) history for Land Rover. That car was a BMW design, back when it owned the Rover group. Then it became a Ford, and they replaced the engine and electrical architechure with Jaguar stuff. Now it's a TaTa. Indian curry, not to my taste.

Recently test drove a 2010 Range Rover Supercharged back to back against a 2011 X5 5.0. IMHO, the X5 blew it away in all performance categories except AC. Now whether that impressive AC in the RR will continue working is another matter altogether.

I am not sure I would have been so calm on the video. Guy has the patience of Jobe.

He may have the patience of Job, but I am not sure about having Job's smarts, if it took him buying three of these vehicles to figure it out.

Possible. Honestly, I only watched bits and pieces. Had no idea he was on his third. DOH!! :dunno:
