This is the greatest car I have ever owned and I have had it for a few months with no issues. It has great space whenever I need it. It is great to have third row seat that fold into the floor because I dont need it that often.
Completely disappointed, cheaply made

We sold our 2 year old GMC Denali to get the LR3, and have regretted it every since the first week. We have had nothing but problems, one thing after another and live 3 hours from the dealership. The Land Rover is built like a car 1/4 of the cost. To pay 50+K for our land rover, you should expect more things standard like a navigation system or at least something that tells you which direction you are headed. It seems the LR3 is poorly made and we will not be upgrading to the Range Rover sport as initially intended. I would NEVER recommend one. I am a mother of three and drive very conservative, still after less than 20K miles we are having to replace the brakes and tires. WHY? Cheaply made.

My last 3 cars have been Land Rovers. I like them because they are so big and roomy. I dont ge't claustrophobic in them. So as usual I got a land rover when it was time for a new car. I don't recomend this car one of the worst things with high gas prices is the 15 mpg and premium gas. The first few weeks the engine was smooth and fast but now it is pretty loud and a little bumpy. All the features are a little hard to remember how to use. Folding the second row seats flat is a little bit of a struggle and there is not as much leg room as expected in the back seat. The third row is pretty comfortable but with the third row up there is only a couple inches to put bags. And only 1 of the three sunroofs open
Wish we had two

Bought our LR3 and we love it. Very versatile seating, makes it easy to have multiple seating combinations, no other vehicle we know of has this capability. The body is well built with solid body panels not a tin can. The frame and suspension components are a superior construction. Very capable off road and just as comfortable on the road. One minute you can drive through trails in the elements the next pull hit pavement like a refined performance vehicle. Great visibliity. Ive had an engine light for a MAF sensor only because in Vermont you can go from 60 degrees to 35 if you drive up over a mountain the changes of climate so quickly trips the MAF. Maintenance has been average no different then any average car. Just never want to bring to a dealer. The interior has plastic but less then Toyota and the fit and finish is clean and tight, on the up side easy to clean. I had a Benz GL 450 which was like a land rocket all the way up to the day it threw a tire rod and the cpu tried to drive for me to prevent a collision and bounced off two Jersey barriers. Air ride had bugs worked out and is leaps and bounds better then Benz. The air bags are covered with aircraft alum. Unlike Benz where the bags are exposed to elements. The rover is not as fast but lets face it with laws that enforce how fast you go the rover is just right. I personally get 21 mpg average with the rover. That's driving following speed limits and not hitting the highway like I'm about to take off. This is a great truck. We have one and I would like one in every color if I could.

I traded my 335 for an LR3 so the dog would have her own area in the back. She’s big and the kids are getting bigger. So everyone fits in their area nicely. Great sound system. Great ride. Great site lines. I’m not big on the 4 or Range Rover. Too slick for my taste. I like the utilitarian feel of the 3. It’s light gray / black. It’s now got over 200,000 miles and feels as strong and smooth as ever.
