1. I tend to do longer journeys with the "workhorse", incl towing, going to countries with extreme temperatures (Northern Finland for instance) 2. I drive my cars hard. If I wanted to drive Miss Daisy, I'd have kept my 3.5 GDI Shogun. Reliable, comfortable, but just not enough power, especially...

Just a question: I understand the system can feel if there is a leak, or a sensor issue. But how could it know the geometry is "off" ?

Top work :)

:D Brilliant ! "I would not recommend one" :lol: Understand the boot is indeed smaller and that is why I am attracted to a Disco 4. Then again, I have had 2 Shogun LWB's and they're equally roomy. Cranks snapping and turbos... not cheap these problems :(

I am actually comparing to the normal Range, not the RRS. The RRS is useless. It's a Disco that is less practical (and as heavy). Lookswise, I really don't care. Same for the image. (I live 2m away from Monaco, so even a brand new Range does get anyone to look up). Purely going by 'spec', I...

Question: I'm looking to buy a second hand Range Rover L322 and meanwhile was looking also at the Disco 4. How come the values are so high in comparison to the Range? For the price of a reasonably "basic" LR Disco 4, you can get a RR with similar mileage, similar age, much better spec'ed and...

Visited this second hand shop that has quite a few Land Rovers. Does anyone have experience with them? http://www.motorstoreltd.co.uk/used-cars/search-results?make=LAND+ROVER&vehicleType=cars Cheers.

Thanks, quavey. At least a nice answer :) Been looking around at few Ranges on Monday (at a place in Amersham called Motor Store)(guys have approx 25 RR's there). What struck me was how badly the interiors had aged. The 2007-2008 cars had very tatty interiors (worn leather, plastics...

I thank you for your friendly and helpful answer. Maybe some people do a search and find that the internet is not as useful as it needs to be. Hence then revert to car fora to find some answers from enthusiasts. Yours seems to confirm that Range drivers also come with a significant level of...

What is RSE? And is the gearbox on a 2006 and 2007 different?

Looking for it. However, I see lots of comments on "fuel consumption" but few on reliability. Also, is there a max mileage to buy either car?

I am looking to buy a first RR. I come from a Shogun LWB 3.5 V6 GDI which was very practical, comfortable and reliable but lacked power when towing. It was used purely as workhorse to travel to Northern Finland, tow, etc. (Got a bunch of other cars). Within the budget I want to spend, I can...

Thanks. Which area of the forum can I post to get to know opinions on 4.2 vs 3.6 and general things to look for?

Yes. Problem is double: 1. They're more exprnsive than RR for a similar car. 2. Lack of power. If I sell a (very reliable) Shogun 3.5 V6 to get more power, it's really to get more power. Not to have a very small improvement (which might be cancelled by the considerable extra weight of the...

A service does not sound logical, neither does a software update. You shouldn't lose power because of that.

On the gearbox: they both have the same issue of being so called "maintenance free". (BMW's have the same issue). Best is to change the oil straight away and give the gearbox a good service. The V8 is reliable (I got the N62B48 in a BMW), but not very torquey. You might be better off with a...

Hi ! I'm a car enthusiast who's been active on few fora in the UK (you'll find me there under the same name). I've been owning "scoobies", still got an Lancer Evo IX and I always liked "big saloons" (got a Merc S63 AMG and a BMW 750i E65). Few years ago, I got myself a Shogun 3.5 V6 LWB...
