Used 2015 Land Rover LR4 Consumer Reviews
Love it
4-year update: 187k miles now and it's still great. Does everything really well and haven't had any new issues, but do need do some fluid refreshes. Update: Another year has passed and I still love my LR4. It really is the perfect combination of rugged utility and luxury. There's nothing it lacks. In regards to servicing, I've got a coolant leak brewing and we'll see what that amounts to soon and I'll update again. I'm over 160k miles now and just got new tires. All good! I've waited through 1 year of ownership to write this review. I drove 500 miles to buy my 2015 LR4 HSE because it was a steal. Yes, 150k miles were on it, but a 1-owner, no accident, mint condition example for only $15k? C'mon! No matter what the brand, if a single owner is willing to drive a vehicle to 150k miles, you know it's been a good ride. Well, it has been for me, too! Truth - after the long drive back, I had a leak within the first week, but the part that was replaced was recommended for refresh every 75k miles, so that is acceptable. Was it expensive? Yes. But that's why you go into something knowing what your budget is and at $15k purchase-price, I've got lots of room to spend. Since then, it's been trouble-free and an absolute pleasure to drive, own, look at, talk about, and just sit in. I saw an LR3 at a car show back in 2006 and was in love ever since. But, I decided to own other fun rides along the way, like a Porsche 968 Cabriolet and an Audi A8, and had to be a dad in-between with minivans in the mix, sometimes my primary. I've owned a lot of vehicles. All of this to say, I love my LR4 as much as I thought I would. It's the right amount of everything. Yes, fueling it is not cheap, but use the ever-popular "compare it to Starbucks" math and I'll make my coffee at home and just drive and enjoy. Why is the infotainment picked on? 2015/2016 system is fine. And no one uses car mapping systems. Plenty of physical buttons to accomplish what you need and it's really not complicated to push "radio" or "phone" to listen to music. Also, I'm a sound snob and the Meridian system is a real joy. Oh, and the whistle thing with the AC and acceleration - yes - mine does it too, only when it's scorching hot and the AC is on full blast. So, I just don't turn it up full blast and I don't gun it. Normal weather, no issues. Speaking of gunning it, this is my first supercharged engine and I gotta say, I like it a lot. The power is always there when you need it, but it doesn't beg you to use it, which is good. I wish they hadn't killed the LR4, but I will enjoy mine for as many years as I can - at least, till I can find one of the new Defender's under $20k ;)

Happier than ever
We traded in a 2011 Ford Explorer on the LR4. My wife hated the Explorer we previously had a LR3 and loved it. We only went to the ford for better gas mileage witch did not exist. This vehicle is far better than the LR3. We purchased the LR4 lux package.

LR3 vs LR4
Turned in an 06' LR3 for an 11' LR4. On the outside, the initial look is the usual Jedi mind trick of changing the tail/head lights and a few other cosmetic alterations. However... the first word that comes to mind is smoooooooth. LR3, rough transition from a light, very jerky. LR4, smooth as silk. Improved suspension and ride in the LR4, sharper interior. More power!!! 375 hp.
Solid Performer
Have had very few problems with this SUV. Excellent towing ability

I absolutely love my LR4. Of all the vehicles I have previously owned, this is by the far the most reliable. its classy, sporty and has "street cred" I will never own a different vehicle going forward. "BRAVO land rover BRAVO"
