Fantastic powerful ride - 2011 Land Rover LR4
By BK - March 9 - 10:00 amBeen driving my LR4 Lux for 2 weeks, nothing but good things to say, powerful, luxurious interior, easy hands free. Lowering of vehicle 2" is great for my 2 young kids to get in and out, they love the ambient lights in the doors! Drove a 06 RR sport, this vehicle is better appointed more powerful and cost $15k less! I use this vehicle for work. hauling virtually everything and anything, slick back seats. iPod cord transfers everything to the display easy to use. Cameras are a little over kill but have come in handy parking tight to curbs!

1st time LR buyer - 2011 Land Rover LR4
By batesoh - April 14 - 1:38 amBought the LR4 LUX (new) over the BMW X-5 turbo and Volvo XC90 V8; Mercedes was +$12,000 for similar engine/options. An absolute pleasure to drive. Plenty of power for all 7,000 pounds. An absolute delight on the freeway. Excellent visibility from drivers seat. A few electrical/communication issues, but dealer has been there to support us all the way. 19,000 miles and counting.

On Going Electrical Issues - 2011 Land Rover LR4
By landrover5 - April 3 - 8:31 amWe purchased the LR4 LUX with every option that Land Rover offered. Total price was around $65,000. The vehicle was great for the first couple months but then we noticed the rear fog lights would not work. We took the car back to the dealership, by that time the lights worked again. (very strange) The electrical issues went up to the windows, the steering wheel buttons then the car just wouldnt start. It was towed numerous times back to the dealership but they could never find the problem. The vehicle was just taken back under the lemon law. Land Rover agreed to place us into a new vehicle but were still not sure about it??

6 Month Report - 2011 Land Rover LR4
By tanker6 - March 31 - 12:38 amI had been looking to replace a 2001 Toyota Landcruiser with a new one. The Toyota dealer said he did not have one but if he did, it would have been $75,000. So here I am with a 2011 LR4. 6,000 miles/6 months and I could not be happier. No issues to date. Very fast, comfortable and well designed. 22 mpg on the highway 15 mpg in town. Extremely competent off-road, and I am off road a lot. Also great on road. Smaller than the Landcruiser but every bit as functional.

An Automobile with a Custom Fit - 2011 Land Rover LR4
By bjlondon - March 26 - 8:32 pmThis is the fifth Land Rover we have purchased. The previous four Land Rovers were purchased with my husband as the intended primary driver, and then subsequently passed on to me as we replaced them with newer models. This is the first LR purchased primarily for me--a petite woman. I feel as if this vehicle was custom-designed for me. It is absolutely the most comfortable auto Ive ever driven. Everything w/in the cockpit is at my fingertips. The body is compact and easy to maneuver and control. Despite having the controls close at hand, this is an extremely roomy automobile. You would be hard-pressed to find a more comfortable or luxurious ride in a more expensive luxury car.

Far and away better than the competition - 2011 Land Rover LR4
By safari_tested - March 19 - 10:27 pmI have owned seven Hondas, a BMW, a Ford a Chevy and three Olds before I tried Land Rovers and Jags. Despite the scare tactics which seem to abound even on reputable review sites I have nothing but praise for my Land Rovers (Dicsovery2, LR3 and now a LR4) along with my Jaguars (an XJL and my current XJ VDP). Where does EPA get these MPG figures? My Hondas NEVER got the predicted MPGS always falling a few miles below the hopeful predictions, yet my LR4 (and LR3) get a full 2 MPG higher than those on the EPA sticker! Reliability in the first weeks through 2,600 miles has been perfect, not a single flaw. My previous new cars from other manufacturers never accomplished that.

LR3 vs LR4 - 2011 Land Rover LR4
By billybatts - March 17 - 9:51 amTurned in an 06 LR3 for an 11 LR4. On the outside, the initial look is the usual Jedi mind trick of changing the tail/head lights and a few other cosmetic alterations. However... the first word that comes to mind is smoooooooth. LR3, rough transition from a light, very jerky. LR4, smooth as silk. Improved suspension and ride in the LR4, sharper interior. More power!!! 375 hp.

2011 LR4 HSE - 2011 Land Rover LR4
By red_rover - May 11 - 8:11 amAfter years of debate, I finally bought one of these things despite the warnings of high costs, poor mileage, and electrical problems. Now I have an LR4 and am experiencing high costs, poor gas mileage, and electrical problems. That said, I love this truck. On-road it is elegant and well-behaved; Off-road it is unstoppable. However, the LR4 is not for everyone. It should be a purchase based on emotion, as it is primarily an off-road truck that happens to drive quite well on the road. If you think youll like it - youll love it. If youre worried about cost or reliability, or if you never go off-road, then you may want to consider something else. But then again, life is too short!
