Used 1998 Land Rover Range Rover SUV Consumer Reviews
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.
Exceeded Expectations
This has been a terrific SUV for three years. It is a '98 and still gets compliments. The only downside is it doesn't have great acceleration, but then again that's not why you buy a Rover. I've only had to do standard maintanence. Much less troublesome that I was planning on. Would make the same buy decision again.
Rolling Lemon
I bought this car two years old with 32,000 miles costing $ 34,000 down from $ 65,000 new. Thought I had a bargain. Gas cost a lot less back then and repair costs have ballooned. Radio broke, Air Suspension failed twice, head gasket leaking for years etc. Comfortable, spacious car but worst for repair and cost I've ever owned.
gotta love it
i love my 4.6 hse .....however i would highly suggest you buy a used one with a heritage extended bumper to bumper warranty. Landrover are expensive to work on like any hightech automobile
Been Lucky.
I bought new a '98 4.0. Very comfortable and easy to drive. Pulling power is astonishing for only 190HP. I have had a brake job ($1200) @ 40,000 miles - 2 new stereos, a fan bearing fail causing the fan to explode and create a large dent in the bonnet. Out of warranty now (78,000 mi.) and CD changer acting up, noisy air suspension motor. Other than these item, I have been happy with my Rover. I am dissapointed with the accelerated depreciaton. Looking to trade for maybe a '01 740iL.
