Must Have Cash Reserves
Admittedly one of the most refined and capable luxury SUVs made...when it's not in the shop. Most common trouble spot is the air suspension system, which will leave you stranded when it fails. The complex electrical system is British...not high in the reliability category. Don't expect much warmth from the heated seats, if they're even working. They're prone to early failure. Make sure that you do not own this vehicle without a warranty as the average trip to the shop is in excess of $1,000, not including a rental car and flatbed.
Long Time 1998 Range Rover Owner
I have had my 1998 Range Rover since new. Problems early-on were numerous, but after changing out the failed air suspension system to a manual one several years ago, this has been a great vehicle to own. It now has just over 100,000 miles 20 years out, and is no longer a daily driver, but gets annual trips totaling 2000 miles or more. New headliner last year, replacement climate control unit this year (now inexpensively available rebuilt). Bottom line, at this point it is truly a classic that retains its iconic looks and great SUV/off-road/snow-performance ability.

long time owner
I am a long time RR owner and have never experienced any problems. Dealerships charge thru the nose for service.. Local mechanics can do the same thing for much cheaper..
Best 4X4 ever!
I bought my Range Rover with 190,000 miles on it. I am a mechanic and am in awe of the craftsmanship in this vehicle. Equiped to hand exstreme conditions will you are in comfort. Plus you drive out of the wood onto the road and never miss out on an exceptional ride. I drive it in 30" rivers and up 45 degree inclines with ease, drive on 4wheeler trails and watch the looks on others face with amazement. A lot of fun in the woods.

I really love our Range Rover. It truly is a great vehicle. It fits five people just fine, and handles great on slippery conditions. Thinking about getting another one. You will truly love how this car drives as long as you keep it maintained.
