  Amazing SUV - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By mrjohnnycat - December 1 - 1:03 am

  I bought the Rover from a private party, the guy only had 18K in two years. I bought it for 40K it was in perfect condition. I bought someones supercharged pipes for and put also purchased chrome caps for the side mirrors and most importantly 22" wheels. The car gets a lot of attention! Everyone digs this car because it is very clean but not over the top. We just took it up from Orange County up to Carmel, Northern Cali up PCH and this car drove like a champ! No power lag for a two ton and I avg 18 mpg, not great but hey, if you dont have money you shouldnt be buying this car period. I havent had any problems from random lights a couple of times put I have been very happy with this car.

  Emphasize Sport in SUV - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By J.D. Giovinazzo - November 27 - 4:40 am

  This is a great SUV thats fun to drive. This heavy vehicle is a bit thirsty for fuel, about 16.5 avg. It is a very quality built machine that moves well in sport mode, and even better in the well positioned manual mode. Ive driven several vehicles in manual mode and this vehicle is the easiest and ergo thoughtful of all of them, less vehicles with paddle shifters. The interior is classy and with the real wood trim, looks great. With the weight of this vehicle, be prepared to replace brakes every 30k or so, depending on driving habits. The brakes will run about $1,400 at the dealership. Only issue is the rear tailgate struts went out, otherwise, great Sport UV. JG

  Got One - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By Simper - October 25 - 3:20 am

  I just purchased the new RR Sport. Its excellent. The car looks and feels gutsz, but drives smoother than a truck. The interior feels like a combination of a BMW and a Range Rover. Very high quality, but now with a driver intended focus. Its pretty quick, nimble and sounds mean. Its definitely a guys drive. I could be happier.

  Sport Rocks! - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By KRBJr. - March 13 - 7:46 pm

  Best looking SUV on the planet. Ride and handling are close to the best as well. A real head turner with the guts to do more off road than most are willing to try. A keeper.

  Nice Sled - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By Happy Camper - March 9 - 6:06 am

  I grabbed one of the first Sports to hit the lot in LA and have zero regrets. This SUV is a superb driving machine. But its not until you het the rain, mud, snow, and ice that you know you got what you paid for - its off-road prowess is unequalled. An unsurpassed engineering marvel! And it looks and drives great, too. Handles like a sport car and accelerates like one, also.

  Best of the Best - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By Faisal Farooq - January 5 - 10:40 pm

  I traded in my Escalade ESV for this RR Sport. I just love it. Better Ergonomics, much better quality and handling.

  Bullet proof - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By Jim D - January 2 - 9:16 am

  I bought two for my business. Both have had zero issues. Handling not as sharp as my old FX35 but the car feels a lot more expensive.

  My RRS HSE - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By Charlie - November 29 - 10:53 pm

  I bought this truck the weekend it was available to the public back in July of 2005. I cant tell you the goose bumps Id get when people on the street turned their heads to check it out, saying, "I thinks thats the NEW Range Rover Sport", and "NICE TRUCK!" I still have the same sense of excitement every time I start the ignition now at 5,500 miles as I did the day I bought it! If you are looking for a sports sedan - scrap that - a sports car feel but in a full-time all wheel drive luxury SUV, this is your vehicle. I challenge you this...if you have the means, just test drive it and I bet you buy one.

  Love it! - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By Rover Mom - September 19 - 4:33 am

  I bought this car brand new. I had an MB E Class. The Rover sport is cute seems a little small when all adults are in the vehicle. Ive been told the head rest are uncomfortable in the rear. I had a short in one of my headlights the 1st month I owned the car. I dropped it at the dealer they gave me a loaner, I picked it up 3 days later and never had the problem again. I just got rotors and brakes all around $1500, I never had such a high maintenance bill ever! I love the Rover sport I just wish it was a little more roomy, better on gas, and its a little slow to take off, have to work speed up. Im thinking about going to the full size HSE, but I wonder will it be worth it...

  Very Happy - 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  By Dave - August 28 - 10:10 pm

  I love my car! I was really close to buying a garden variety 750i, but am so glad I got on the long waiting list for the Sport. Every time I drive it I get asked about it, and subsequent nods of approval. The interior is comfortable, and the industrial look rubber mats are perfect. The touch screen navigation is much better than last years knob control, and the variable traction settings worked flawlessly on my road trip from Portland down to the OC. The new Jag engine concerned me while I was waiting for the car, but it is silky smooth. Also, the infamous British electrical system has not given me one problem, so far so good. All I can say is that I am one happy owner.Buy this car
