  Worse vehicle ever - 2001 Land Rover Range Rover
  By tripper - October 6 - 2:46 pm

  This has been a terrible vehicle. Since owning i have replaced the transmission at 45k, replaced air shock system, and now a new head gasket with only 72,000 miles on it and it has never been off road or out of the garage in the weather. Land Rover and Bear Valley Rover have not stood behind their product. It is a poorly made vehicle. I have owned BMW, Chrysler, Pontiac, Fiat, Oldsmobile, Buick and they were all better than this product. Even the car tag screw holes were drilled off-level so the car tag sits crooked.

  Beauty and Beast - 2001 Land Rover Range Rover
  By Coolerking - September 2 - 10:00 am

  I bought this to drive in comfort on the highway and never get stranded offroad. It excells at both. I hit a deer head-on at 65mph and was able to drive 80 miles home with all lights working and no steering problems-a very solid vehicle! Had the bladder leak on one of my suspension bags- replaced it with Gen III air bladders from Arnott and Bilstein shocks-now its awesome squared! Its just a real pleasure to drive it anywhere. I want the most bang for my buck and Ive got it with this. So far, except for more horsepower, the later model styles dont appeal to me as much as the P- 38. Turning radius and maneuverability is amazing. The first day I drove it I parallel parked it in ONE move!

  Love/Hate Relationship - 2001 Land Rover Range Rover
  By wytex - November 18 - 12:08 pm

  I love the look and image of Land Rovers and Jaguars. The 2001 Range Rover that I purchased has had way too many problems, but it still has an appeal that makes me continue sinking money into to keep it rolling. The styling has a classic appearance that makes its age irrelevant. I like to fly fish and this vehicle is a perfect match to my bamboo fly rod and Filson vest and waders. Once I reach 200K miles in this vehicle I will likely buy a newer Range Rover and go through the whole love/hate routine again.

  Be Prepared - 2001 Land Rover Range Rover
  By Tiffany - June 29 - 11:43 pm

  I really like the uniqueness of the Range Rover--the style is superb if you like to stand out. But BE PREPARED for the maintenance costs-- they will kill your pocket--average visit to the dealership is about $2000- -and believe me this truck can go frequently of it wants to--the annual checkups range from about $1300-$1100 and are done every 15000 miles and there is always something extra to be done while in the shop. Remember to get spare keys--all keys are made in England and may take from days to months to get here.

  Absolutely Great.....ITS A TRUCK!!! - 2001 Land Rover Range Rover
  By Andy/M - April 24 - 2:30 am

  The best looking SUV by far, and the most comfortable seating position of any vehicle Ive sat in (someone over 61"). It is not a sports car, but you definately OWN THE ROAD. The interior design is quirky/different which is what I like about it. All materials are solid/ heavy/ luxurious. No plastic or "designed style". This is minimalistic, but quality styling. I got a 2001 leftover for less than a Navigator, Escalade or now even prices on high-end Yukons! Price? No COMPARISON!

  Pretty but Terrible Quality - 2001 Land Rover Range Rover
  By cmh - June 12 - 4:56 am

  We fell in love with the drive and look of the car, but our love quickly faded when everything started to breakdown and cost a fortune to fix (not to mention that the Land Rover repair shops are so overbooked because these cars are lemons-- most places cant even look at the car for a week theyre so booked up). Electrical system is a disaster. 3 times the car just died on me while driving my kids in our "safe" SUV. In the last month alone I have taken my car in 3 times for various major problems-- Electrical failure, alternater failure and hydraulic failure. It looks cool, but dont be fooled!

  A complex work of art - 2001 Land Rover Range Rover
  By theschurgers - May 23 - 10:23 pm

  This vehicle is quite complex, so there is higher chance of a failure. Body is extremely durable in a rollover. Absolutely beautiful interior. Body panel fit could be better. Engine is a very old Buick design with modern Bosch controls. Solid axle can provide rough ride. Great to tow horse trailer, exceptional off road. Very nimble in traffic and to park. Outstanding brakes. Very good handling for an SUV, air suspension is very adaptable. We love this car.

  4.6 vogue - 2001 Land Rover Range Rover
  By ash - February 23 - 3:23 am

  A great vehicle which I have had converted to lpg. I have added a sport exhaust so that it sounds like a proper v8. Never had any problems since purchase in March of 2007. Electric seats dont work and the rear wash has died but the enjoyment I get when I drive this superb piece of machinery far out weighs these trivial problems. Havent been off road yet, one day soon i hope.
