I have had an RR Sport with the 4.2 supercharged jag engine for 14 years. 350,000 km. (210k miles). Bulletproof drive train. Longest vehicle I’ve ever kept & I still love it. It has been a great vehicle.

I am thinking of buying one. Are they expensive to run fuel wise? The £695 road tax made me sit down as I nearly fainted. But I like them and always wanted one. I would use it on a long journey once every month and use it at the weekend mainly

Granted, there is always something wrong with it (most little things knock on wood) but don't plan to part with it anytime soon.

Got a 2005 tdv6 with 230000 miles on it. Its the bog standard version, not hse. Perfect for chucking a couple of dogs in back. Had 3yrs use with very little trouble. Had an issue with battery drain which I found was due to an aftermarket satnav. Ripped it out an no problem since. Awesome car👌

NEVER use a LR franchised dealer to service your RRS. There are plenty of LR 4X4 specialists out there that will genuinely look after it properly. But some are still sharks. It doesn’t need a service each year, but it does need looking after. Much better value than a same aged Discovery. Though the suspension is harder on the 2010 and younger versions. Great vehicles and is the first ever truly Sport Utility Vehicle.

My dad had a 2008 3.6 TDV8, only recently sold it. Was great car and not once did it break down. Only issues it had was the noisey air compressor and the speedo stopped working, other than that, fine. Worth remembering, leather seats, look after them! Use leather cleaner an balm and it will keep the leather looking good and help prevent wear!

Really great video and review. Thank you. All I can add is. If like me your using it at weekends or a second car try a petrol. Once you tried a 5.0 you will be hooked. Just watch out for the timing chains. Fuel is not good but if it's a second car it doesn't matter so much. Still get 23 - 25 mpg on a run. Oh and road tax is now £695. 😠 Had my 2011 5.0sc for a while now. 60k miles changed every fluid. Serviced it when required, not every year as don't do loads of miles. Don't drive it like you stole it. The cars fablous in my eyes as of yet never let me down. Has been more reliable than my 2014 Smax. How does that figure????

Thanks Neil for leaving us a comment 🤗 you make a great point about petrol if you are using it like you are. I’ve had a go in the 5 litre and supercharged versions too and they put a huge smile on your face :) tax is crazy isn’t it! Sounds like you look after yours very well and have lots of fun in it. It’s always great to hear from real world owners and hear their experience with their cars so thanks for sharing 👌🏽

@CarChatTV Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the comment. I hear what you are saying, all depends on the car you are looking at, you might find a great deal on one that has recently had a new turbo fitted or not long on its service history and they can last for ages 10+ years. If you are not going to put a lot of miles on it and use it as a weekend car. You have the best options of choosing the best spec ones. I wouldn’t limit yourself to just NA models as you could miss out on some real bargains out there! Let us know what you get. Thanks for chatting with us 🤗

@CarChatTV Жыл бұрын

Hey QP, we have similar websites in the UK where we can check it. Has the seller got receipts/invoices of work carried out and service history? It could be a solid purchase for sure. Have you driven it? Does it feel ok. In the UK if we are really unsure we can take a vehicle inspector with us for a price from a company to give us peace of mind. Hope that helps. Let me know if you get it. 👍🏽

So the mileage alone doesn't give concern?

When we got back I had a quick look and saw this plastic thing sticking out. I asked what it was but he changed the conversation anyway fast forward to collecting the car and I looked again and it wasn’t there….. 3 days or so later bing bing bing faults start popping up 5 or 6 different ones! So off to the garage it went was told it needed £6500 worth of work the plastic thing I was catching my foot on was a diagnostic chip the bloke was controlling from his phone!
