This Year's Model Updates:

As this is just the third new Range Rover in 31 years, one might hope that the 2003 Range Rover hosts some significant improvements. Indeed it does. Land Rover has focused on improving drivability and livability. As such, this updated flagship SUV features unit body construction, a four-wheel independent suspension and a BMW-engineered V8 mated to a five-speed automatic transmission. It also boasts more interior space, greater ground clearance and a beautifully revised interior.

Pros:
  • Vastly superior to the one it replaces, sumptuous interior, nonpareil off-road capability.
Cons:
  • Price premium, poor reputation for build quality, difficult to use stereo and navigation system.

    This is my third range rover and finally I got what I paid for. They did it right.

  • What a car! - 2003 Land Rover Range Rover

    We have owned LRs in the past and this is by far the finest vehicle they have ever made. It is truly increadable. A little large for some, but extremely agile and quick. Extreme comfort and capabilities combined with a increadable design improvements!

    This is the pinnacle of my rover experience. My very first car was a rover sedan. It is unbeleviable how good these vehicles have become. Definetly, the best british vehicle I have ever owned. Fit, finish and comfort are first class. On a recent 5000 mile trip from Chicago through the canadian rockies and back to Chicago the truck performed flawlessley. Fuel mileage has been very acceptable. On one leg of my journey 21.5 MPG highway. I would definetly recommend the new Range Rover to anyone in the market for a SUV in this price range.

  • The Ultimate SUV - 2003 Land Rover Range Rover

    The new 2003 Range Rover is the best SUV on the road. I should know, I have an H2 Hummer, Mercedes ML 320, Lexus RX 300 and the Range Rover. The Range Rover is the best one, it has everything standard and it is great in bad weather. Its AWD gives it great Traction and the air suspension is a lot fun to play with. The Navigation system is great. Cons - Fuel economy and no DVD Entertainment.

  • I love it - 2003 Land Rover Range Rover

    This truck is by far and away the best vehicle I have owned. Ever since a kid I have always wanted a Range Rover. I finally got one and I havent been happier. This car is beautiful inside and out. I have the Navy Blue with the Ivory seats. The car is very reliable as well. I have driven it close to 10k miles and I havent had one issue with it. I bought it at 59k and it drives as if new. I would recommend this car to anyone.

  • very nice vehicle - 2003 Land Rover Range Rover

    This is a very solid car. After 10000 miles nothing has failed. Average mpg on the road is 18.5 in town 16mpg. This is a very comfortable car to ride in with surprising performance for heavy vehicle.

  • WOW - 2003 Land Rover Range Rover
    By -

    This RR is head and shoulders above the previous modle. I had a 1994 LWB that I really loved. This one is far advanced from the modle after mine. I do take my RR off road and this on performs very well off road as well as on the road. It finally has good power to weight ratio and is fun to drive. My frind has a Lexus 470. I used to like to take his places, including off road. Now the RR is vastly superior to the Lexus so his is not much fun to take anymore. This is an impressive vehicle.

  • Not bad! - 2003 Land Rover Range Rover
    By -

    I have been very surprised with the reliability of this vehicle. I bought it mainly for the looks, but I am surprised by the durability. Rides smooth, not as big as you might think. I would definitely by another. Not the Ford one though, only the BMW model.

  • The Best Vehicle Ever! - 2003 Land Rover Range Rover
    By -

    If this vehicle doesnt do IT for you, nothing will. The new Range Rover is light years ahead of the luxury SUV market and right in the middle of the luxury sedan / $70,000 market. Trade in your "S" class and forget about driving your "7" series. This vehicle will knock your socks off.

  • Clearly a Bimmer - 2003 Land Rover Range Rover
    By -

    The new Range Rover is by far the best SUV I have owned (and there have been many). The interior design is like a well-done Manhattan living room with its cherrywood (not that plastic-looking veneer crap) and buttery leather with contrasting piping. The 19" wheels are stout and lend way to great handling for a truck. One would have to be trying extremely hard to roll this machine. I have the same 4.4L V8 BMW powerplant in two other cars and it is bullet-proof, quite smooth, and reliable. Just about everything else save the box-design of the body is easily recognised as BMW as well, again speaking volumes about the expected reliability and thoughful design.
