  Anyone ever owned one? How was the maintenance? I've heard they are bloody expensive to repair and maintain, is this true?
  anyone have any PERSONAL experience with them? oh and I'm talking about newer ones, like 04 and later.
  I love the old ones, but I know they are tough to maintain.

  I hope you have deep pockets and like owning something that depreciates in value by the minute.

  It's a good wheels if you own a rainy estate in England and like to check on the wild peacocks every so often.

  not too sound like a hippie, but if you are about to buy a car, get a used hybrid. you will be thanking yourself by the end of the year, when gas prices are 2 dollars higher than today.

  • indeed, they're probably on the 12 liter per km scale. Nothing compared to a common car in the US, though.– Corvo1/3

    12L/100km, sorry.– Corvo2/3

    12L/100km if you hit the road often. It's probably more on regular urban driving.– Corvo3/3

  My brother has a Mobile Mechanic business. RR's and BMW's have more problems than any other brands. BTW they're really just glorified FORD EXPLODERS.

  • no way..
    a RR rover is not a ford explorer..
    sorry I can't believe that– Meeklo1/2

    You tell em Meeklo!– Mr_1000002/2

  With a comment like that, you've proved that you know absolutely nothing about Land Rover.

  • Now, he was talking about the Range Rover not the Land Rover.– Corvo1/2

    Land Rover makes Range Rovers.– Mr_1000002/2

  hey M. if that was a response to me, than you are right.
  I'll tell you more, I know nothing about cars.

  But something tells me that a RR has to be at least a little bit better than a Ford Explorer..

  • Nah, not at you Meeks. Was directed at industrialidontknow above. I agreed, they aren't glorified Ford's.– Mr_100000

  puro e duro... pure and hard... south EU ad phrase for the "cosmopolitan weekend naturalist" ;)

  • catch-phrase.– Corvo1/4

    "pur et dur" is a mocking phrase for the city folks who come to the mountains over the weekend.– Corvo2/4

    They usually dress up like astronauts, and take it very seriously - like their life depends on it :D– Corvo3/4

    we say it in french to make it look more posh and ironic ;)– Corvo4/4

  I don't know anyone with a newer RR, but I have a friend with an older one ('80s maybe?) that has had almost no problems.
