I bought this to drive in comfort on the highway and never get stranded offroad. It excells at both. I hit a deer head-on at 65mph and was able to drive 80 miles home with all lights working and no steering problems-a very solid vehicle! Had the bladder leak on one of my suspension bags- replaced it with Gen III air bladders from Arnott and Bilstein shocks-now it's awesome squared! It's just a real pleasure to drive it anywhere. I want the most bang for my buck and I've got it with this. So far, except for more horsepower, the later model styles don't appeal to me as much as the P- 38. Turning radius and maneuverability is amazing. The first day I drove it I parallel parked it in ONE move!

Love/Hate Relationship

I love the look and image of Land Rovers and Jaguars. The 2001 Range Rover that I purchased has had way too many problems, but it still has an appeal that makes me continue sinking money into to keep it rolling. The styling has a classic appearance that makes it's age irrelevant. I like to fly fish and this vehicle is a perfect match to my bamboo fly rod and Filson vest and waders. Once I reach 200K miles in this vehicle I will likely buy a newer Range Rover and go through the whole love/hate routine again. -------- Several years have gone by and the Range Rover is still on the road. It is a great off road vehicle and has worked well for our personal interest in Fly Fishing and Snow Skiing. We have given it plenty of chances to get stuck, but it seems to be up for any situation. Reliability is a continuous challenge and the gas mileage is poor. We now have 155,000 miles on the odometer and just got it out of the shop for $1,000.00. We hope to get to 200,000 miles. Engine and transmission still doing well. A Range Rover is not for everyone. Sometimes I wonder why I still enjoy driving it. I guess it's because there is nothing else on the road like it. ------------------------------------------------------------------- It is now late 2018 and will provide more feedback. We still have the 2001 Range Rover and it has about 170,000 miles at this point. Within the last year we had repairs totaling about $2,500. It is running reasonably well but has a slew of minor/major irritations. We are still trying to get to 200,000 + miles and if/should we get there this will be our last Land Rover of any kind. Maybe this should be a warning. DO NOT buy a vehicle from this brand unless time and money is no object. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Hard to believe we still have this vehicle. We are even considering the purchase of a 2012 Range Rover SC to replace the 2001 RR. After all these years Range Rover still has a unique blend of qualities not found on any other vehicle.

Possibly......No....... (it is) The worst vehicle I've ever come in contact with (my wife's truck). Thing was a ticking time bomb from the moment we purchased it. Wished I did more research on it before we bought it. She's always loved Range Rovers. I happened to be looking around on craigslist (probably the reason it was such a lemon to begin with) when I came across this nice 2001 HSE in (what seemed to be) good condition, with 110,000 miles on the odometer. Test drive (of course) went good. Truck started right up, shifted smooth, had plenty of power (thanks to that gas guzzling 4.6 V8), rode a little stiff but figured that was do to the air suspension and low profile tires. All seemed well, so we bought it and took it home. Maybe an hour goes by after its been parked from not being registered yet. Come outside and the front driver's side of the truck is dropped to the floor. Low and behold that infamous Range Rover air suspension (that I now know about). I should've been more worried about the up arrow (indicating an issue with the air suspension) on the cluster being illuminated but the fool (me being more of a fool) who sold it to us says "I think it means its fully lifted". So I look around online and see that the air bags are pretty cheap and somewhat easy to fix. They also refill and lift the truck after its running so I don't worry too much. I'll just do them myself when I have some time. About two weeks later, we drive the truck up to my father's house for a visit (1h 50m drive). All went well until it was time to go home. Started it up to let it warm up for a few minutes, then it randomly shuts down. Try to start it back up and nothing. It cranks but never fires. A couple minutes go by and it starts, but maybe 30 seconds later it shuts down again. At this point my wife is fed up with this thing since we just got it. I do a quick search on the forums and describe the issue. Crank position sensor is the culprit. We have it towed to a local mechanic my father goes to and luckily it was a pretty easy fix. All seems well again until the following weekend when the Mrs. goes out to the city with some friends. I get a call and she says "the truck shut down, is in the middle of the street and is smoking very bad". Now I'm completely pissed and ready to take this truck to a junkyard and get to crush it myself. I asked her if she noticed the temp gauge over in the red zone and she said "yes". Now I'm more worried since she doesn't know how long it was overheating before it shut down on her. She rarely pays attention to her gauges while driving. Her mother just so happened to be meeting up with her at the event her and her friends were going to so she wasn't alone since mom was nearby. A gentleman was walking by and helped pushed the truck off to the side of the road. Luckily she wasn't on the highway anymore but on a busy city street. After the smoke somewhat cleared he reveled one of the top radiator hoses came loose and popped off. I'm still home at this point since she said shes going to leave it where it is and her and mom are going to head to the event. Next day comes and we drive to where the truck is. I get the hose back together, fill the radiator with some antifreeze and we start on our way home. Not long after, its starts overheating again. I'll skip ahead since this story is already long enough. We eventually get it home from NY (we're in NJ) after repeatedly pulling over and stopping to let it cool off and refill. First thing I notice after getting it home is there is a huge hole in the Y connector pipe connecting two upper radiator hoses down to the lower radiator hose that also connects to the external thermostat housing (first design I've ever seen like that but whatever). Hole was more than likely a result from overheating. Anyways, get that replaced. Still overheating. Replace the thermostat, still overheating. Replaced the water pump (which was surprisingly easy), still overheating. I even go as far as drilling out the thermostat (from within the ridiculous housing that doesn't let you replace it the normal way) and running it straight open and the b**** is still overheating. All that trial and error and the head gasket was the cause from the beginning (which caused it to initially overheat and pop that hose loose). Antifreeze level was always good and wasn't leaking but hey I guess s*** happens, haha. All in all, maybe we just so happened to get a lemon and you'd never have those same issues. But after owning it and doing some extensive research, the bad faaaaaaaar outweigh the good with this truck. I remember one person even saying "It should be illegal to sell this thing". Sorry for the long story. I just wouldn't want anyone else to make the same mistake. If anything, buy one new and get a full lifetime warranty because apparently even the new ones are a big pain in the arse as well. You and your dealer will become very acquainted. Hope this story helps. ~peace~

My parents first purchased this car, and at first I thought it was the ugliest thing they could have bought, but after a few years I really started getting attached and when I got my license my parents let me have it. Within the year I drove i but 18,000 miles on it and it already had 186k so it was at the end of it life, so expected there was wear and tear but mostly in good condition. What broke was the suspension (EAS fault) which probably costs more to replace than what the car is worth currently. I used this car to drive friends around, haul grain for the horses, and we took many family adventures in it threw the cascades. Over all it was pretty reliable

This SUV is a blast to drive...on or off road. Took it out the weekend I got it and made it clawl through 2 feet of mug and forest (snow too) it never even flinched. drove it back on the highway at 130km per hour, like driving a regular car. city gas milage will shock even the non-enviromentalist, but highway is good for a truck this size. 22.8 mpg

This has been a terrible vehicle. Since owning i have replaced the transmission at 45k, replaced air shock system, and now a new head gasket with only 72,000 miles on it and it has never been off road or out of the garage in the weather. Land Rover and Bear Valley Rover have not stood behind their product. It is a poorly made vehicle. I have owned BMW, Chrysler, Pontiac, Fiat, Oldsmobile, Buick and they were all better than this product. Even the car tag screw holes were drilled off-level so the car tag sits crooked.

I have always admired the Range Rover from afar, and knew one day that I would have to get one. That day finally came and I must say that I love the Range. I read people reviews and with any product your going to have the good with the bad. The Range Rover is "King of the Hill" hands down. This SUV is in a class all by itself, case in point the next time you take that baby out for a ride count and see how many other Ranges you come across. You don't see them all over the place like the so-called- comparison SUV's BMW X5, Mercedes M- class, Cadiallac Escalade. You can pull up to the light and literally count about 3 BMW's and at least 2 Escalades. The Range reign supreme.

After buying a used 2000 HSE and putting about 40,000 miles on it, we've been pleasantly surprised by the reliability. In that time, we had the tie-rod ends replaced and the driver's seat heater element replaced. Nothing else has failed and it still drives like new. The Michelin tires are hardly worn (original!). The small details (side mirrors dimmable, etc) are welcome, but it's the solid, unflappable performance on poor traction surfaces that makes it our favorite vehicle.

I absolutely enjoy driving this solid truck (body-on-frame) Mark II 4.6 HSE, P38 (“Pegasus” engineering block 38A), Bosh engine from BMW 7, with the solid-axle suspensions that made the RR king of the off-road, now discontinued after this model. Even my Prius driving husband loves being a passenger. I’m a slight 5’4” woman, my visibility is awesome with numerous seat adjustments and massive window space, interior is sporty but luxurious (love the wood), great sound system, I feel in complete control driving Los Angeles freeways especially in the rain, and couldn’t live without the EAS that addressed the roll over issue. Had it totally replaced – no springs. I’m a dog performance enthusiast so going off road into the field with a 4-wheel drive is a pleasure. I lower it for my Labrador to hop in. Love the tailgate feature for unloading gear/stuff and sitting with friends at an event. IMO, the key ingredient is to find a mechanic you trust and enjoy working with. Someone that could rebuild this truck from the ground up. Mine is terrific. I was told to expect to put $2,500/yr into this vehicle. I purchased it just out of warranty with 60K mi? Currently at 132K (I have a home office. My mechanic says I need to get out more and drive it.) Took out an extended warranty which helped. I might be ahead of the game with cost. Did the headliner last year, and recently finally addressed the 3 oil leaks. Ready for family road trips. I look every so often, but can’t find a compromial replacement. The LR4 with third seat would give more AC in the back for my dog, but hard to find with features and I’d be starting all over again with unknown issues. I just love the look and feel of my Rover.

Reliable so long as it is maintained. Diesel would be ideal but not available in North America!! Fuel economy for a v8 truck is pretty good at about 18mpg combined and 25mpg hwy. Offroad performance which is a reason for my purchase is phenomenal and this is proven, living in Salmon Arm British Columbia. Overpriced but just buy a year-old unit, then it is a steal!

This the 2nd Range Rover I have owned. The first was a SE 4.0 1998. That model was under powered but other than that very reliable. The 4.6 HSE 2000 model is a great improvement. More power with about the same gas milage as the 4.0. Navigation system is much better than my wifes 740IL. Great highway car, supurb towing boats, and unmatched off road. This is not a car to just drive around town in. Buy it because you will use it for what it was designed for.

I have loved owning my Range Rover. I can tow our boat behind, put a canoe on top, and drive in comfort down the highway. My kids and I love to take it off road. It really can go anywhere the tires can get traction. I have not had any breakdowns with it, however I do maintain my Range Rover religiously. If you are thinking of buying one of these make sure you get a certified Land Rover preowned with a complete warranty. They are very expensive to repair and maintain. My Range Rover is well worth the money- it is the most fun I have had with any vehicle, it can carry all my recreational toys with ease, go anywhere up mountains and through rivers, the kids love it, and it looks great too!

I bought my truck in November 2000. It was a special edition, in which 25 were made (125 were planned, but 25 only made it out). I love the car, plan on driving it into the ground, however it still is a Range Rover. To begin with Rovers are not well known for their reliability. It isn't the question of whether you have a good one or a bad one, it is more like I have a bad one or a less bad one. So far during my ownership, I have replaced a fair amount, about $10,000 worth of work since new. I also know that since I came out of warranty, I need to put in about $4-5k. I would avoid a Range Rover and go Japanese, unless a Land Rover/Range Rover is a must have

This vehicle is quite complex, so there is higher chance of a failure. Body is extremely durable in a rollover. Absolutely beautiful interior. Body panel fit could be better. Engine is a very old Buick design with modern Bosch controls. Solid axle can provide rough ride. Great to tow horse trailer, exceptional off road. Very nimble in traffic and to park. Outstanding brakes. Very good handling for an SUV, air suspension is very adaptable. We love this car.

I really like the uniqueness of the Range Rover--the style is superb if you like to stand out. But BE PREPARED for the maintenance costs-- they will kill your pocket--average visit to the dealership is about $2000- -and believe me this truck can go frequently of it wants to--the annual checkups range from about $1300-$1100 and are done every 15000 miles and there is always something extra to be done while in the shop. Remember to get spare keys--all keys are made in England and may take from days to months to get here.

A great vehicle which I have had converted to lpg. I have added a sport exhaust so that it sounds like a proper v8. Never had any problems since purchase in March of 2007. Electric seats don't work and the rear wash has died but the enjoyment I get when I drive this superb piece of machinery far out weighs these trivial problems. Haven't been off road yet, one day soon i hope.

In the past 6 months, the car has broken down 3 times and had to be towed to the dealership ... this is my third Land Rover, and this is by far the WORST! The first 2 years were fine .. then the car started to fall apart ... and only 22K miles. Run, don't walk away from these cars.

We bought this Rover certified used with 20K miles on it in 2003. We have used it ever since, and have put 51K more miles on it. We had issues with the air suspension (replaced under warranty) and the radio (an amp blew) but otherwise the Rover has been rock solid. We get a solid 17mph, which I consider fine given the size of the Rover.

this is one of the most comfortable vehicles on the road, you feel like you are in charge and own the highway, it has some quirks, but what car doesn't, i feel very safe and that is a big factor in driving on the roads today, it is a driving dream, feel as though i could drive it coast to coast non-stop, the biggest thing is keeping up on maintenance, preventive is always the best way, get a feel for your rover, it's a status symbol that you will always enjoy, mine has a 102,000 miles, going real strong, if you do buy one make sure the air ride is in place, a little maintenance, but the ride is worth it.

We fell in love with the drive and look of the car, but our love quickly faded when everything started to breakdown and cost a fortune to fix (not to mention that the Land Rover repair shops are so overbooked because these cars are lemons-- most places can't even look at the car for a week they're so booked up). Electrical system is a disaster. 3 times the car just died on me while driving my kids in our "safe" SUV. In the last month alone I have taken my car in 3 times for various major problems-- Electrical failure, alternater failure and hydraulic failure. It looks cool, but don't be fooled!

I'm on my second Range Rover. My family has 4 of them also and we're all moving away from Land Rover. Don't let the extended warrany fool you. You will spend 4 times the vehicle price to maintain the vehicle! Don't ever buy a used Land Rover! So many problems and not worth the headaches. Land Rovers are kind of like horses, the best two days you have them are the day you buy them and the day you sell them. Get Ready for $1000 brake jobs every 8,000 miles. Make sure you like the dealerships loaner car before you buy because thats what you will be driving most of the time. Everyone of our landrovers has had MAJOR problems. Please don't make this mistake.

So after owning two Acuras, I stepped down apparently into a Range Rover. Problems: Handle broke off when opening hood, plastic. Door handles breaking off, car's suspension deflates in the cold, takes 15 minutes to get it up. A/C didn't work well in summer, screen went out. DVD player doesn't work now, CD player doesn't work, back lights went out and bulbs don't fix it. Back lid won't stay up, pieces break off of this car constantly. Hood thinks it's open when it's not, key fab broke, and door locks don't work right. Sometimes car won't start and give reason why. I've spent about 3,000 on this car in less than 8 months (about 1/3 what I paid for the car in first place. FUN TIMES!

Tbh some days I would rate my Range Rover as one star, and other days i'd give it a five star rating. Today it gets four stars. There's way too much stuff to fix always something breaking, and wiring problems in perpetuum.. It's like, the engine and transmission are very well built. You can get in and start my range Rover up and drive wherever you want, but you can't roll up the back door windows. The running lights and blinkers only work on one side, but it starts right up every time. The transmission always shifts smooth, but the windshield wipers come on (and stay on as long as it's in od) when it shifts into overdrive. There's more, but I think you get my point. I recommend don't buy a Land Rover vehicle. At least not an older one like I have. If you do buy one be careful as you might become a Range Rover addict like me. I may not ever buy another one, but I ain't getting rid of mine. It's like a love hate relationship I have with my Range Rover. 😁

The best looking SUV by far, and the most comfortable seating position of any vehicle I've sat in (someone over 6'1"). It is not a sports car, but you definately OWN THE ROAD. The interior design is quirky/different which is what I like about it. All materials are solid/ heavy/ luxurious. No plastic or "designed style". This is minimalistic, but quality styling. I got a 2001 leftover for less than a Navigator, Escalade or now even prices on high-end Yukon's! Price? No COMPARISON!

Definitely NOT worth it

Can't say too many good things about this car. Price comparison was similar to an S-Class - should have bought the S-Class! Resale value is extremely poor - it been less than 4 yrs and the re-sale price has already dropped 60%. Can't even sell it if I want to - too much of a loss! Technology was really old when I bought it compared to available technology at the time. Unless you are into serious off-roading...its defintely NOT worth the money.

I just sold this car back to the dealership I bought it from. I drove it for 8 months/ 5000 miles- 4 trips to the dealership and one breakdown. The car had 20,000 miles when I bought it.

I use my Range Rover--and it really performs. Snow, mud, sand, up hills and down without complaint. Towing is a breeze--very stable frame. Throughout it all, my RR has been outstanding. Excellent driver visibility and superior lighting make it a treat to drive.

Dont You Be Sorry

22.8 MPG? Never happen. More like 11 in the city/16 Hwy. VERY disappointed in fit/finish, quality, and warranty efforts for amount of money spent. I am SURE it is off-road capable if you can suffer the repair work afterwards. With only one dealer in most towns you are at their mercry. Roadside Assistance? A joke. Rattles on a $60,000 car? Sorry but not covered by warranty. Wind noise? Will if you insist, guess we can cover it. It's a cool looking car. . . but like the Hummer, its a bummer.

A delight to drive on or off road. If I want a sport car I will buy one, but I was looking for a well built and safe vehicle for me and my Wife. Superior comfort with a real luxury SUV feel. Has power and with the automatic suspension you can adapt to the road. If you can't afford 60k don't try this vehicle, but if you understand safety/luxury be my quest you won't be disappointed.

I have enjoyed my HSE far more than I expected. It is a work horse, yet comfortable and elegant. No issue so far at all, very reliable.

Range Rover? In a heartbeat!

This is a 5000 lb. truck, not a sedan. If you want a highway poseur stationwagon, buy something else. I've taken the RR camping in the mountains, & it simply goes wherever you point it; no drama. The only real competition for this vehicle is the Mercedes G-wagon, which rides like a tank on the road. I can go off-road with modified trucks, and cruise home on the highway like a limo. Absolutely, the BEST 4x4 by far! Find an independent shop that knows Rovers; only a fool would use a dealer for service!

There is a reason it's called a Rover

There is a reason it's called a Rover because it's a dog! Love the styling, but the reliability is horrible, resale value is pretty much zero. The electronics are so far outdated and the interior is still way behind others in the same class. I would never buy one again. We thought our 745li was bad on reliability, but this thing is horrible. Run and run very fast to something else. We traded it in for a loaded Lexus SUV and gosh what a difference! Talk about creature comforts, yet still have towing and off road capabilities. The 745li is going to be dumped for a Lexus soon.

Worst Car Ever Owned

The best day of owning this vehicle was the day we sold it. And even that was a loss. Vehicle was always breaking down. No heat on driver side. Brake job. Heated seats never worked. Driving around town I would get cramps in my arms from the effort it took to keep this vehicle driving straight. This vehicle was a gem to drive on vacation or long term trips- and the AWD was amazing.
