  Worst Car Ive Ever Owned - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By es - April 19 - 10:03 am

  This car has had the computer system replaced 3 times, cannot be made to drive straight, had the leaky-whistly windshied problem, had the naviscreen replaced twice, the air suspension raises and lowers at its own mystical intervals, et, etc ,etc... If I could tell everyone thinking of buying this vehicle, I would let them know that $20,000 of the purchase price is to cover the warranty work that they know they are going to perform. When the computer went out the 3rd time, I was asked " did you just wash the car?" because apparently the rear windows leak right where the computer resides, and commonly shorts the system out.

  Computer Issues - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By IROC - March 6 - 12:16 pm

  Bought the car 2 weeks ago, has been in the shop the last week because the stereo and navigation system keep going on and off. The service people cant figure out the problem and seem like they are clueless all around. Have always owned BMWs and regret switching. I would wait a year before I bought this vehicle, let them work the kinks out. Car is new so they are trying to fix problems on the fly.

  great on the outside - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By great on the outside - February 27 - 11:56 pm

  I have owned this car for 6 months and want out of it. I had the 04 Range Rover with the BMW engine and loved the car. I thought the new Sport style was really hot, so I changed models. what a mistake. Its a lot smaller, and seats are not comfortable. The bluetooth is great to have. The side bags for storage are too hard to get to. The center console is narrow and the cooler is great if it was able to fit a normal size water bottle. Key ignition is too hard to get to and the other keys on my chain touch my leg! Car lags and jolts into another gear from a slow stop, drives me nuts!

  Range Rover Sport - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport

  Many problems with our RR Sport. Fuel pump went out at less than 500 mi while we were on the interstate. Car came to complete stop, we were nearly killed. 5 months later the differential went, 1 after that back in shop for transmission problems. Back in shop again today at 1 year with bad alternator. Very unreliable for a $65k car. Love the look, comfort, amenities, etc..., but if the car wont run, none of that really matters does it?

  2006 Range Rover Sport HSE Review - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By Aaron Yeung - December 7 - 10:36 pm

  This has to be the best vehicle Land Rover has come out with. The engine (4.4L) and transmission are improvements from the 4.4 and 4.6 L engines of the Land Rover Discovery II and IIa (1999 to 2004). The smooth ride rivals that of the Lexus GX470. The interior is well-appointed.

  New purchase - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By kungpao - September 7 - 11:20 pm

  Gorgeous car to drive and very luxurious interior. My favorite is the body style. I looked at several other luxury cars and when this version of the Range Rover came out I was enamored with the price point and I already owned a Land Rover Discovery so I traded it in for this one. Body style really mattered to me so I loved this when it came out. After all the bells and whistles/dvd/rear entertainment/aspen leather/bluetooth/navigation/heated seats etc...It came out to be 63k. It could stand to be a bigger as far as the rear cargo area is concerned, but if I had wanted the LR3 I wouldve had to give up the rear body style and it was just too boxy for my taste.

  Best of all worlds! - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By BGreig - July 1 - 3:43 am

  I traded a Mercedes S500 and gained a vehicle that handles just as well. Great fun to drive, with the off road capability I needed for recreation. The engine is a dream, and the sport shift works amazingly well to match gear to speed or allow manual shifting. The sport seats provide lots of support, and the leg room is sufficient (I am 64").

  I still love it after 33K mi. - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By Emmett_III - July 1 - 3:43 am

  After 33K mi, I have had zero problems. My only visits to the dealership are for the free maintenance included with the purchase.

  Better than ever expected. - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By Razor - March 31 - 9:46 pm

  I had previously owned an LR Discovery and wasnt too thrilled with the design or performance. I thought Id never own another LR until I saw the Sport. I had to see it. Then had to drive it. Then had to own it. The car is incredible. Most nimble SUV on the planet and with classy style to boot. Plenty of power, interior space, and creature comfort features.

  Awesome ride! Superior handling on city streets. Had somewhat of a slight inconvenience occur while out shopping. Had to FOLLOW the culprits. They were driving a Chevy Impala (Pursuit Package). I was driving my RRS. This baby gets UP!!! I was highly impressed with the performance of this sweet SUV. Only problems have been the reverse tilt-mirror feature activates on its own on some occasions. The suspension warning light occasionally activates and will not allow me to change the height of the vehicle without turning the vehicle off and then restarting it.
