Excellent to drive if not for twrrible problems - 2008 Land Rover Range Rover
By bns2013 - June 18 - 8:16 pmBought the 2008 supercharged with 8000kms and have been using it for 1 year now....Done just 25000km as of now. Excellent car to drive but with problems of transmission. Gear change was knocking at low speeds. Took the car twice to the agents but came back saying nothing is wrong wasting my time. Third time, I had to insist them to do a proper check and they found that there were residue in the transmission oil. They changed the full transmission (at least this is what they said) and released the vehicle after keeping it for 10 days. Was driving good for 3 months and then came the problem again. Took it to the agent and they have to replace transmission again..8 days and still with agent...

08 Supercharged - 2008 Land Rover Range Rover
By tm - December 14 - 2:23 amFourth Range Rover. Supercharged is very powerful with a great drive look and fit. Nevertheless, terrible reliability!!! Blocks on supercharged not moulded properly. No car for a month while engine repaired. Good warranty but have to spend around $300 at every visit for tire rotation ect. Next problem occured while on interstate as power decreased while in fast lane. Supercharer pump and electrical problem. Unfortunately, dealer where Rover was purchased went out of business and car must be sent 70 miles to nearest dealer. Lots of money for such poor reliability but if near a dealership and admire vehicle, grab one. GREATEST ADVICE, trade before warranty expires!!!!!

The Best Car Iver Ever Owned - 2008 Land Rover Range Rover
By LeavingLaguna - May 26 - 2:53 amHaving driven Mercedes cars for the past 15 years I was nervous about trying something different. I am totally in love with this vehicle. It screams class. The ride is superb. I feel like royalty. The fit and finish is awesome. Its no green machine but I get about 17 miles to the gallon which is better than I expected. I was shocked to read some of the experiences other people have had. This car is very reliable - even better than my S-Class. Anyway, I do have a few grumbles (see suggested improvements)

Not Worth The $ - 2008 Land Rover Range Rover
By Virginia - March 4 - 7:36 amTraded in my BMW X5 (8 Cyl) ...and totally regret it. I paid $85,000.00 for my Range Rover, I had extras installed in addition to fully loaded. I have had my vehicle for 2 months and I am already having problems with it. I do not recommend this vehicle, unless your not looking for reliability. I am very disappointed.
