After 12 months of ownership of my 2010 Range Rover Sport L320, how much has it cost to run, and have I had any problems with it. The answer… fairly costly and none really. However a few potential issues have surfaced on and off………………..

Am I the only one who thinks the above doesnt make sense?
How can it be costly , with no problems really. And if 'no problems really', where did the "few potential problems" come into it?
If I had a year with 'no problems really,' I wouldn't say my L322 was costly to run. In fact in her first 3 years she wasn't costly, the problems and cost came afterwards, from incompetent mechanics. I have been playing catch up since.

It's just a review........ yes, in terms of maintenance it was a cheap year..... fuel costs were relatively high...

Fuel costs are high for everyone, from the little 1litre car mascots, to a Bugatti Chiron. Can't buy a Range Rover, even the Sport , and start worrying about fuel costs. That's the basics, and IMO, should be taken into account before buying, then just accepted, unless mpg changes dramatically and points to a problem ( other than lead right foot )
So fuel aside you've had an easy year. Go out and celebrate.

I'm more than happy with the car and I'm certainly not surprised or moaning about the mpg. If you watched the video I gave a breakdown of the accurate mpg I experienced. I certainly did my research, and I hope this video is informative for those thinking of buying..

I started writing something else but have decided, why bother. Everything you write contradicts everything you wrote the sentence, or post before. So, enjoy.
