TFL Team thanks for having me back on the channel! Much love!

love the honest feedback/ review. As a 4runner and a wrangler owner, I applaud your choice. Not everything needs to be built to crawl rocks. Love the premium interior and confident driving dynamics. While my jeep is awesome once off the tarmac, carving canyons is on top of my wishlist. Anything that gives you daily comfort for your use and as long as you love it that's awesome. No hate. The community needs to chill and let people enjoy choices.

This guy should get some kind of incentive from the manufacturer - he basically tested the car in real life and gave honest review

“Haven’t really had too many issue” proceeds to list issues over the next 7 minutes 😂😂 Seems like a great dude and he really does wheel it hard so kudos.

This guy is the 1% The 1% who off-road these vehicles! Seriously, great job keep up the good work

I was a sales manager at a Land Rover and I was amazed how much owners would buy again and again. He’s right don’t buy into the hate.

He must be a Land Rover salesman… I like how he listed the dozen fixes and replacements with ease and excitement, I almost wanted one!

I love buddy's passion, and the fact that he actually gets out and beats his ride. Great vid!

I really enjoyed this video. I’m a Defender p400 owner myself. You nailed it. Life’s too short to drive a boring car ! Work hard and play hard and enjoy!

As an LR4 owner, I agree. I wheel and have modified mine and have had very few problems. Owned mine for over 6 years and am sitting at over 110k miles now, and laugh every time the Toyota owners chime in on a Land Rover video with "things they've heard from others who heard" so they can feel better about owning boring vehicles.

As a fellow Range Rover Sport owner who takes it every where - you summarised the vehicle perfectly - a superb vehicle with a few niggles, but nothing you would kick it out of bed for.

Cant be understated that no vehicle on earth is free from issues so at the end of the day get what you like, enjoy it and ignore the haters. The haters are always the ones who bought the one they thought was a safe choice and they need to justify that choice by trying to make others feel they made the wrong choice. Love this video and the messege it sends, and love the Rover too, looks like a ton of fun.

Some of my favorite REAL LIFE video accounts of their true experiences with their vehicles!

Fantastic stuff Such a great and honest review He drives it hard It has a tune He goes off road etc LR dealers have given him great service etc and looked after him If u use ANY vehicle off road a lot, then of course the vehicle is getting more wear in those tougher conditions. And he is so correct when he says U only live once Buy a car u really want and like Enjoy it Kudos to this guy 👍👍

This guy is great. Terrific personality for youtube. U guys should try to work him in more often somehow.

Great honest review! your comments at the end really hit home, ignore the haters - agreed, know what you are getting into - absolutely, and that feeling you get every time you climb in. I get that same feeling every time I climb into my LR3. I absolutely love my Land Rover. The character these vehicles have is second to none. I hope you continue to enjoy yours for years to come!

Great real world review by an ACTUAL LR owner. The haters are mostly uninformed dudes who never drove/owned and who just recite LR lore from back in the day when the Rangies (2nd gen, looking at you) actually did suck. I've had an Evoque and then a Discovery Sport that were super reliable and never got me stranded. On top of that they have pretty much the nicest designed interiors for my taste, are super excellent, comfy road tripping cars and its really, really hard to get them stuck unless you're hard core rock crawl off roading. I'm ready to get my next one, but for me it has to be electric and it looks like LR is missing the boat BIG TIME on electrification, otherwise I would already have a Defender in my garage. Maybe the R1S might fit the bill, if it ever becomes available.

Sharp vehicle in red. Don't think I've ever seen a Rover in anything other than white, black and silver. Kudos for being bold with the color.

I just love British vehicles, my first love was the E Type Jag, then MG’s Triumphs McLaren’s and of course Range Rovers, won’t ever be well off enough to own a new one or afford repairs on a used one, but I can dream. Great video, seems like a great person!!!

Love the color combo and solid advice on a proper extended warranty on such a vehicle. Remember this is a unique vehicle in terms of on road driving dynamics and off road ability. Something like a 4runner is a total bore on road, where they spend 99.9% of the time.

I love people that actually use their cars like this.

Why wouldn’t you link his driven hard KZfaq channel??

Love how you've been actually driving this! Can't say it's the be-all end-all vehicle for carving through mountain roads though...

I’ve just picked one of these up last month, love it so far. Replaced a beat up pickup truck and a Mercedes CL500 with the one car - no regrets. It does most things both those vehicles did, only better.

I love how you mention ignore the hate at the end. As of me writing this comment, the only other comments are hate. I like these segments TFL keep them coming.

Showing LOVE for my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE CHANNEL PERIOD Thank You and have a Blessed day y'all

I live in the Aussie bush. My 09 tdv8 off roads every day. Water in times of flood often over the bonnet crossing my creek. She has a hard life, lotsa dirt n pot holes. No more problems than any other 4x4 ive owned. Ive ownwed just about all makes over time. Yep they can be infuriting at times. I own an iiD scan tool run off my phone. Saved me a fortune so far. Do most of my repairs etc and change my oil ever 6 or 7 thousand kms and let the engine run when stopped to cool the twin turbos. Love my Rangey , but like a good woman she lets you know when you disrespect her. Nice review mate. Liked the bit about the missus being peeved about costs. I just stopped informing mine. No more spousal issues.

Now you know why people lease cars. Lower payments and no worry about maintenance. Perfect example for Audi, BMW, MB, Land Rover leases.

Solid review bru.

Small detail but I love the placement of the gesture tailgate sensor as well. Added benefit Is that it seems to work nearly 100% of the time whereas my old bmw was hit and miss.

this is awesome!!! nice to see it being used properly!

I had a Chevy service guy give me a bunch of BS(similar to what you say you were getting from LR) when the transmission failed in less than 30K on a 2006 Trailblazer SS and they would NOT cover it under warranty. Needless to say be weary of the BS fed to you. ;) A lot of manufacturers are notorious for feeding people BS in order to(try)convince you your bad experiences are normal.

Facts! Life’s too short to be driving boring cars…

Dude skipped leg day on his body and Range Rover Sport. Get some bigger tires and some Johnson Rods. Beef it up man.

good review video

I enjoyed the honesty of this video! I love my Range Rover l405 with warranty of coarse! They are amazing cars that will put a smile on your face when you punch it off the line or go off-road (v8 supercharged). I work for a luxury Japanese brand that is considered reliable by “society standards” but those cars don’t do anything for me and yes they do break like every car out there does just depends on how much you want to spend on proper maintenance and repair! Loved the video on someone who really drives their Range Rover properly!

We love our 2021 Range Rover Sport. Just a great road trip vehicle, super comfortable, smooth, powerful and plenty capable off-road.

This is the only Range Rover sport that a second owner has to be wary about

I have had the same weird issue turning on uneven ground in 2 of my 3 Sport's. In my 2014 V8 AB a new diff cured it. In my 2020 V8 AB, they've refused to take it that far to cure it. My SVR didn't have the same issue. I'm told by a tech that he thinks its either the diff or a clutch in the transfer case slipping.

We have 6 Rovers, 3 RR, 2 RRS & 1 LR3 and absolutely love everyone of them, but only 1 has had that weird grinding noise when turning, we ended up changing/flushing the transfer case fluid and have not had any issues, so that’s what I would try to solve that issue.

Great review, appreciate the tips and your excitement for your vehicle. Ignoring the hate!

Excellent video! Did I miss it, what is the extended warranty info? Thanks in advance!

that interior is NICE!

Well at least it not a video of "my long term review of car that I only drove 1k miles in".

For a car of that age and mileage thats a shxt load of warranty work on the car shocking in my opinion.

Well, at least someone takes it off-roading. BTW, he looks and sounds like former Mr Olympia Phil Heath.

Hey man, did you upgrade your fuel pump for the tune?

What brand of tires do you have on there?

I remember this a while ago. Cool to see him back on

Love the color and the wheels.

All winding roads are fun as long as there is no one in front of you driving below speed limit

$1200. for a starter, I'm out!

Best review of a range rover I've seen lol

My friend has a 2019 Soport HST. He loves it but scared to mile it up lol. Hasn’t even hit 30k yet

I love my 2012 RRS LUX she is a dream . Haters just cant afford it

A guy that talks sense that what I like, these get crapped on by people but they are such great vehicles to drive. Like you said if you go off roaring expect things to go wrong, most work horse vehicles go wrong

They all think it makes 600hp and it pushes you back into the seat until a tuned subaru gaps the living crap out of them then they start asking questions 🤣

Well said 👍

Cool rig, nice color.

Well, as long as he’s happy with it. It’s not something I would want and I’d be pretty pissed to pay that much money and then have so many problems. But it’s not my money. Best advice he had was to maintain a warranty. Smart move.

That starter motor sounds like it shocks have a snorkel or something. They’re meant to go through water?!?

looks awesome....

"What problems, what's broken, what nightmares I've had with her? Honestly not a ton" - 2x starter motors have already been replaced (he's on his 3rd starter motor now) - Front end/sway bars bushings keeps wearing out every 12k miles - Squeaking noise when turning left that is unfixable. 10K USD worth of suspension parts were used to treat the problem yet the issue remains - Issues with fuel system - Brake system leak/vacuum leak - Windshield has been replaced 3x times. Current windshield already has a big crack His Range Rover is a 2020 model year. His excuse: "i dRiVe It HaRdd DuUuRr!" A purpose built off-roader is supposed to handle driven hard off-road. That's the whole point of an off-roader. And then the audacity to compare his RR to a Land Cruiser. This is why people make fun of Land Rover online because the reality is they are not built to last. My parent's 80-series LC is 30 years old now and with over 500,000 KM. You wanna know what broke on it? Nothing. And it's used daily on my family's farm.

Don’t think a 4Runner needs an extended warranty. I didn’t get one for mine.

So the wading depth specification assumes you never need to start it again?

My LR2 and LR4 have been eating em alice. Just the Alternator for LR2, $2,500!

Tommy is never going to recover from this

It's not broken, it's British!

I've always liked Land Rover, more power to those who can afford a luxury vehicle like this. About the only thing I can think of when it comes to the noise you described is a cab/body mount but isn't yours a unibody instead of body on frame?

This guy rules

If you drove your vehicle fording a stream or any body of water in which the water depth was in excess of Land Rover’s recommended maximum depth and the starting motor malfunctioned then I understand why you would pay for a new starter. However, if the water depth was within the fording depths approved by Land Rover then the starting motor should not fail.

This car is a beast "on the road"

Ummm, are sway bar bushings something different in Britain? That's like a 20 minute job including raising the lift and grabbing the 10mm and rachet. $20 in parts?

100%. Well said.

Windshield-------Chassis flex

Good suv 💪💪💪💪💪

13:50 compared the reliability of this to the Toyota Land Cruiser. Cute 😆

I was always told “rovers and raptors: best Offroad vehicles, but won’t see dirt til their third owner”

$1,200 for a starter

Curious what was overall cost of all repairs on this vehicle?

It certainly confirmed my decision to buy a Toyota.

Jeez he beefed up

There has to be a Last Man Standing match between LC 300 and Range Rover Sport as in Africa we say: Take a Land Cruiser to Africa, you will come back, and take a Range Rover to Africa you will not come back" Anyway, who buys a Range Rover for Off'- Road?

Nice to be able to beat the crap out of a New Land Rover you're buying at MSRP ++ up grade / mod's nah... no hatters here.😁 ☝️This guy is the reason why you never buy a used Land Rover. As for used ones nah.. no brainer, those are always sold to posers. 😉

First in thought its Pimp my Ride show

Confidently comparing that with a Land Cruiser? No way in all aspects! Not amazing at all.

3rd starter motor and he says "not a ton"

for too that much still too much maintenance required

1200 $$$ for a starter?

So you pretty much confirmed to everyone that land Rover is a POS

You like spending money🤑

sell it, now.

Ill keep my 07 4runner sport edition with everything original except brakes what a piece of garbage, when warranty is up lets see how happy he is..and ive 240k miles not km

All this is great and what not, save for one fact: Every Land Rover vehicle is a he, not a she :)

Hard to believe...man...seriously...all FOC?😳😳 Could have shown service docs as proof🤷‍♂️ 100k kms is easy for any SUV but not for RR cos they know guyz who buy it can afford to spend on it🤷‍♂️

Some guys like high maintenance cars and women. I'm not into either of them.

Bad cars like this exist bc people are irrational.

Too slow, but he's not a professional so I grinned through it.

Didn't see any off-roading.... all talk...

It’s just a vehicle. A tool. Not a she. 😂
