Everything I expected and then some
I am always hesitant to write or, for that matter, give to much credence to reviews as they are based, primarily, on a single encounter with something. Rarely, does any reviewer have the luxury of "testing" multiple models of anything to be able to give a fair review of the overall product. So here is my, singular in scope, review of my 2015 Land Rover LR4 HSE. First off, are you freaking kidding me!!! It's a Land Rover and deserves all the cache' associated with the name. My LR4 is built like a tank and sports similar gas mileage as it thirsts for nothing but premium grade fuel, and upkeep can be a bit pricey. So what! I knew that going in. It's huge and boxy, but I never lose it in any parking lot, as it stands out among the herd in its distinctive look and imposing height. The interior is plush, sophisticated, understated, roomy, and never fails to impress any who have the opportunity to enjoy its spaciousness, even in the third row seats. Fold the rear two seat rows down and the cargo capacity is phenomenal. I was able to put a 65" flat screen TV, in the box, lying flat in the back and still had room. From the driver's perspective, you ride high in the saddle with a panoramic view of the world outside. I have never experienced this in any other vehicle and it is most welcome whether navigating the insanity known as Chicago congestion or the wild country where roads no longer exist. Not sure what everyone else has experienced, but in my opinion the only conveyance more sure-footed off road, regardless of terrain, is a Mountain Goat. Is the navigation system slow and cumbersome? Yep! But, I usually know where I'm heading and have plotted my trip before leaving and.....can read a map if necessary! One feature I cannot speak highly enough of is the Meridian stereo system. I was lucky enough to get the top of the line and is CRANKS!. Everything from Mozart to The Ramones clean, undistorted and loud. I am truly sorry for those who have had a less than favorable experience with their Land Rover, but after all it is a machine and nothing is perfect every time. For me, I wanted a Land Rover since I was 10 years old and watched Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom seeing a Rhinoceros slam into the side of one and it drove away. Took me 45 more years to get one, but it was more than worth the wait and is everything I expected and then some!!!

Review of 2016 LR4 Landmark
Purchased a 2016 LR4 Landmark Edition - great package ! Equivalent to the HSE LUX but a big savings. My wife's car and see loves the space, visibility, and safety. Not as peppy as the old 8-cyl LR4 but will do. Could use a little more leg room and rear seats don't recline. Compared with previous model of Audi Q7, BMW X5, Mercedes, and even 2015 Range Rover Sport and she liked this better.

Got sucked back in again.
Don't risk it! 2016 Land Rover LR4 is my 4th Land Rover in 25 years. Other 3 were Disco's. They came with the usual Land Rover problems, but nothing too major. Bought this one used just like the others, and with less than 85k miles. Should have done my research and learned about the $25k dead cylinder issues that come with this engine. Land Rover dealership, and local Euro Tech mechanic won't do a cylinder job on the 3.0 SCV6. POS! Throw it away, And put a new engine in. Won't even mention the reoccuring air suspension issues. Oh, I just did. I've only owned this thing a year and a half. There, you've been warned.

Reliability with Luxury! 2023 Going Strong
I got the LR4 October 2021 with 103k miles. I had the 100K mile services done and regular oil changes since. I have had 11k trouble free, reliable driving since I have owned the Truck. Smooth and quiet freeway driving. Zippy and quick on city streets. Composed and confident on winding mountain roads. I love driving it! I did my research before purchasing and the 2012 model year has the best reliability rating. October 2023 Update LR4 now at 122K miles! It has continued to run smooth with no issues. I have had only done oil changes every 5-6K miles to minimize timing chain issues. I did personally replace the MAP sensor at 121K as CEL turned on with code P0106. Although the sensor was faulty the LR4 had no noticeable change in driving performance. Joined multiple forums and have learned much on preventative maintenance and repairs for common issues. The LR4 is very user friendly for maintenance and repairs for handy individuals who are not mechanics. I love the LR4! I will keep it until I can no longer drive!

Original Owner LR4
This is my 5th Land Rover and by far the best. I still have relatively low milage (under 30,000 miles) but the SUV is solid. Great interior space. Great visibility. Smooth ride. Classic and unique styling! Land Rover has come a long way in design, comfort, and technology. It is what it is (not meant to compete with BMW or Porsche in speed) but a fine vehicle for the performance purpose.
