The Range Rover Sport is not cheap; with the V8 engine and top-end Meridian audio, mine was all but $100k on the road. But you get what you pay for - stunning performance, great handling, the best driving position of any car I've owned, and a luxurious ride that can go anywhere ... and I'm getting 18 mpg in stop-start motoring. After 3 years this all remains true and there have been zero faults with the vehicle. After 6 years, I am just as satisfied as when it was new. No unexpected maintenance and still the best vehicle I've ever owned. Now 7 years on, first unscheduled repair was headlamps - expensive at £400 each, but that's all in 7 years and the car still looks and runs like new. Sold the car on leaving the country - best vehicle I have ever owned. PostScript: I bought the 2016 model of the same vehicle on moving to the UK - still as great as ever

Quite and amazing vehicle. Literally 5/5 in all categories with the exception of the infotainment system. This is about 5 years behind leading competitors like Audi. Fortunately I predominantly use my iPhone for music/GPS so it's not a huge problem for me. The 510 hp is absolutely insane. I highly recommend this to anyone who can afford this.

I loved my Rangys I've owned 2 now and I'm on the fence about buying my 3rd!! Let's just say this ....RR are the coolest looking whips and so amazing in the snow!! I love the horsepower and big gas tank , premium sound system and that the back seats fold flat so your cargo space is huge and flat no seat bumps!! I will say don't own one unless you have warranty or extended warranty for sure!! I had to have a lot done to my second one well over $20,000 ( car shield paid for it np best extended warranty for rangys ) worth of work including new engine and I was out of a car for a year due to waiting on parts ...also the up keep and maintenance is more pricey then most cars and needs to be done more frequently them most cars ....so my advice is yes buy a rangy if you don't mind spending some dough on your vehicle .... I myself don't mind but if you can't or don't want to spend 1000 at least each time you take your car in and don't mind waiting for parts for longer then normal , don't want to pay for top insurance and 200 a month for extended warranty then either buy a new rangy under factory warranty or don't buy one ..... I knew what I was getting into and I'm ok with it I still love rangy more then anything but she isn't for the faintest of hearts and she will cost you a pretty penny but if you pick the right one she's worth every penny ;) love you rangy wish you where more reliable and long lasting / value holding .... talk to Toyota get some tips from them maybe idk .. love German cars for their luxury, power , look, and comfort but wish they had Toyotas reliability and value holding lower maintenance qualities!!

I like cars. I've owned some nice ones. I'm particularly fond of Rover since my grandfather owned the British Leland franchise in Victoria, Australia. But I've completely divorced myself of Land Rover after two very unfortunate experiences with an LR4 and a Range Rover Sport V8 Supercharged Dynamic. Here's my summary of main issues with the RRS; I Won't even start with my LR4 needing a new fuel injection system and transmission at 54K miles: The RRS is FAST!!! Like scary fast. And I don't mean that in a good way because the car is scary to drive fast. Edmunds track tested my vehicle at 4.2 seconds 0-60. But what good is a car that can't break quickly, feels like it's ripping itself apart, and can't handle around mild corners while accelerating or going fast. When accelerating in mine, it felt amazing, but I never felt confident that I could turn, swerve or break quickly if needed. So anxiety ensued with most of my opportunities to accelerate during daily driving. Second, the car's build quality is horrible for the price point. My vehicle rattled at the glove box, at the center console, in the driver and passenger seats, at the A pillar of the driver door, in the ceiling somewhere, and worst of all it rattled badly if I turned up the premium stereo. If you like luxury, you'll love how the RRS looks. But take it for a 10 minute drive and you'll be bothered that your nephews Toyota Carolla is quieter and doesn't rattle. Third issues was the breaks squeaked the day I bought the car and through a set of break pads (my wife's LR4 did the same through 3 sets of pads). Near $100K for a vehicle that sounds embarrassing pulling up at a stoplight. Not cool with me. Fourth and maybe most important, the myriad of issues I had with the car were well overshadowed by the HORRIBLE service experience at Land Rover Seattle. I could call about issues and they'd sometimes never follow up. I would complain about issues at multiple meetings and be promised follow up only to have nobody contact me. To be fair, the staff was pleasant. But when I purchase a $70K and a $95K+ vehicle from the same dealership I expect exceptional loyalty and customer service in return and that most certainly did not happen. In the end, I sold both my Rovers in the same month and took a massive loss on the RRS. Then I bought a Model S Tesla. And that car... well let's just say every issue I've pointed out is no longer and issue and I'll never own another vehicle but a Tesla.
