Exceeds Expectations

2008 Land Rover Range Rover HSE 4dr SUV 4WD (4.4L 8cyl 6A)

Gambled and bought a Rover - and glad I did. Buying experience fantastic. Car is rock-solid - like driving a vault, very BMW-esque. It feels heavy (and makes my larger GMC Yukon seem flimsy in comparison). Thought at first that it was underpowered, but at about 500 miles it loosened up - and the mileage got better too. Suspension sporty but not too rough. Build quality appears to be excellent. Things that at first seemed not to work correctly were actually just a lack of knowledge on my part. It's a complicated machine and it takes some time and effort to understand (but some controls are just bizarre and unintuitive, i.e. radio tuning). Owner's manual worth studying closely!

I've only owned this Range Rover HSE for a few months, but in the time, it has performed beautifully. It truely is like driving a status symbol. The ride is unbelievably smooth, and the ability to lower the car a few inches when in a parking garage or wanting an easier 'fall' out of the car is very well thought out. Off road, there is nothing else I would rather be in. Build quality is good, but I have had some minor glitches with the satellite radio and the built in DVD entertainment system in the rear headrests, but they corrected themselves. Truely an excellent truck.

My 2008 Range Rover a Supercharged Lemon

This is a $96,000 LEMON! I bought it new in January 2008 and from day one it has had many issues. The first week we discovered it had a cracked exhaust system that need to be replaced. The drivers ventilated heated/cooled seat was not working and after many attempts it had to be completely replaced. The rear brake light had filled with water after it rained so that had to be replaced. The adaptive head-lights that are supposed to turn as you go around a corner they ended up being "cross eyed" so they replaced the entire passenger side head-light assembly. The memory functions for the seats, radio and steering wheel have never worked properly. Search user rover73 on you tube for my video.
Love at first site!

In 2018 I did the unthinkable. I fell for a USED Range Rover Sport HSE. If I had read all the reviews by so called experts and people who never owned one but could recite a plethora of reasons one should never, ever buy one I would have settled for a hummer or Dodge Nitro or Durango. Thank God I didn't . Yes I have had some issues but very minimal compared to what I've been told to expect. She had 90,000 miles when I got her and now she's just over 150,000 and doing fine. I love her and would gladly get another.

Owned previous model, 2004 before interior update and this one is the best ever. Even the floor mats exude quality. Fit and finish is probably the best I've seen in a long time. Owned Lexus LX470 and it is just a plastic Toyota upside this vehicle. The constrasting stitching, smooth drivetrain is second to none. Expensive, but worth every penny!
