And saying FACT, doesn't actually make something a fact.... It just sounds silly....
Sorry man, we have to disagree on this one. They're lovely to drive, but the software in the user-facing displays is a dumpster fire. It's dog-slow, unresponsive, badly organised, poorly implemented, the hardware is underpowered. My wife owns a Velar - currently maybe 10K ahead of yours - and it's got the same internals as your Sport. The software lets it down so badly, she only ever uses Apple Carplay. Even the remote app starting is patchy and doesn't work half the time. Also - you've only done 25,000 miles. If you've had an engine light already, I mean... FFS. Your car has actually been
I know that you like Range Rover a lot, mate, but saying that "I haven't been left stranded" when your driver door is not closing... That's not serious, I am sorry. Of course that you are left stranded. You needed to call emergency service to help you sort out the problem. What if you were on a motorway or out of town? Moreover, it happened twice. I am not saying that it is an unreliable car, it actually looks like the perfect car. I am saying that you are not being honest about this situation.
Great cars, but NOT dependable. I’ve owned and have had 3. I like to buy and hold onto my cars. Now I just buy a seven year extended warranty and get rid of it before it ends. All started having problems from 13k - 20k miles, Fuel pump failed, ac compressor, etc. this does not include gremlins, which disappear when you show the dealer or restart. After 40k miles - it’s 4-8k a year in service and repairs - why I get rid of them before extended warranty is over. Wonderful design, very capable, but I think I’m a sucker for punishment - having said that my friends Mercedes are not great either - I suppose that’s why everybody leases.
Nice spec. Two engine lights, a drivers door wouldn’t close. 1 roadside call-out as stranded, 3 dealer drop offs, 3 pickups, 3 non scheduled days without the car, £1k without a warranty. This is low level reliability.
Love how you belittle all the evidence of it's unreliability..😅
A Green Flag break down guy, without any hesitation exclaimed that the most break downs he has attended was Land Rovers or similar.
You need to rethink your gauge 😂…. 10,000 miles and talking about reliability…..Seriously 😂😂😂😂😂
Ripped-knee jeans? Really?
I suspect that level of reliability is simply unacceptable to anyone with less job/time flexibility than you enjoy.
I own a 2018 Range Rover D300 Velar with 38,000, under warranty and it’s been in the garage 5 times in the last 6 months.
If I spent 70k odd on a car I would be pissed off if ANYTHING went wrong with it in the first year of owning it. Ridiculous.
To be fair profession car reviewers and insurance companies world wide all say that the RangeRover is not very reliable. It’s not just the man on the street who has never had one.
Having the engine light coming on is not ok, having this happening on a new car is not acceptable. My 10 year old 100k miles BMW X5 has never had such an issue
I don’t think the more things you have the more you can expect to go wrong is a justification. A £100k car shouldn’t have multiple issues in a year. My Merc doesn’t, I’m not saying Mercs are reliable btw as I’ve had numerous issues with them previously. Manufacturers really need to improve quality of their products
10k miles is nothing! 3 times in the shop in 10k miles is horrible.
I've only had 2 cars actually let me down in the last 30+ years. Both JLR products. My 3.0 Velar stranded me in Devon with 2 passengers (one disabled). It was 18 months old. Personally, if I had this RR it would be gone by now. 3 visits in 10K miles is a pain in the arse. You're an enthusiast Matt, and absolutely nothing wrong with that. Some that are harsh on the marque are so because of experience.
The need for a warranty does not support the argument for getting one of these cars. For that to work, your statement should be 'I paid for a warranty, but it was wasted money as it wasn't needed'
nice video, BUT, I'd go for for a Toyota, every time!
Great vid, as always.
