    No one would ever argue that a RR isn't highly capable, the concern all boils down to their reliability over time.

    The thing with Land Rovers is if you don't maintain them then that's when your issues start. The first owner ignores things but gets them fixed under warranty then trades it, the second owner buys it and is super thrilled they have a Land/Range Rover but an issue happens and ignores it for a bit, then maybe something else happens and then they get it checked. So begins the "that's too expensive to fix right now" and then they eventually sell it or it breaks down completely. Then the second owner bashes it to everyone.... I have a 2015 Evoque with 160,000 miles thats been serviced by myself religiously and the only things that have been replaced were Ford parts like the boost control solenoid (uses the same one as some early Focus ST's and they died early too) and I replaced an O2 sensor a month ago. Typical things that go with age really... it's been a trooper of a little SUV and an absolute beast in snow. Take care of anything and it will take care of you.

    I live in Mongolia, offroading is not a choice, it's the only way to go. In the capital plenty of new RR's. But all owners have a LC200/300 for when leaving the comfy city streets. You can repair most LC issues with a wrench, but RR's need a computer. I do know some that bought the computer to do the resets in the desert, but even then, the risk is too high. You cannot bring all parts, plus passersby drive Toyota, so can't help you. If a part fails, you need to order it. Good luck when your car is in the middle of nowhere and months later when the part arrives. If everyone would drive RR's, it may stand a chance, but the high tech needed to solve issues is probably why no one would date to take one on the road. Same with Defenders.

    @@stlwrxWrong. Maintenance doesn’t mean you won’t have breakdowns. I’ve owned 3 LR/RR’s. Maintained them properly-even more diligently than recommended by the manufacturer. For example, I did oil changes at 1/2 the mileage intervals the manufacturer recommends (1 year/15K miles)--they still broke down. Certain parts have a 100% failure rate, such as the air struts for the suspension (dry rot). Door lock mechanism, climate control panel, supercharger pulley, etc.-failed failed and failed. I even had a wiper motor fail on me-never had that happen on any other brand car I’ve owned and with way more mileage.

    The Range Rover was also optional with a rear locker. Shame you don't have that one (on the infotainment screen, the lock icon would show in the rear differential just as it does in the center), but they are pretty rare. Another problem you'll have with the supercharged v8 is that it's harder to fit smaller wheels on them. The smaller engines can fit 18" wheels, but I think 19 inch or 20 inch wheels is the smallest you'll be able to fit without swapping out brake calipers.

Air suspension, engine work (oil leaks, faulty wiring, coils going bad, etc) not to mention EVERY SINGLE ELECTRONIC FAILING!!! Most problems started happening just before the end of her extended warranty, and after the air suspension failed for like the 3rd time my aunt ditched the car. It was about 7 years old, and only had 88,000 miles. Taught me to never buy a Mercedes.

    Recently purchased the identical vehicle with 27,xxx miles for $36k. It has been a dream to own, especially the long wheel base. The space in the back seat for the car seat has been life changing. The larger door makes it so easy to put the car seat in, and I can adjust my driver seat to any position i want with plenty of room to spare. Good to know these perform so well off road. The wading depth is nice since we often get flash flooding here in Florida. If you find the right vehicle that hasn’t had 6 owners, i think these are excellent “bang for your buck” vehicles with the help of depreciation. Thanks for sharing! New sub 😊

Right now I plan to get some KO2's in 275/55/R20. I am interested to see what you guys do with the wheels and tires. Voyager Racks makes a cool safari style roof rack for Range Rovers. Also, there are factory mount points for after market rocks sliders. When I spoke Voyager Racks they where looking at designing and producing sliders to mount to those points.

    I’ve only broken down twice in a Land Rover Product. I’ve owned 5 different ones. The first one to break was 1991 county, with 70,000 and a cracked cylinder sleeve. The second was 2004 RR that had a really great BMW motor and there was some plastic internal cooling piece that broke and needed $1300 repair. It had 102,000 miles. The rest was some expensive maintenance and repair items, but not causing me to be stuck.

    When you fit a set of 18" wheels with a decent set of off road tires, it might be really capable. That would be an interesting project / video. Assuming, of course, it doesn't break down.

    Sadly with the supercharged model the large brakes mean a 19" is the smallest wheel that will clear, and then you are extremely limited in tire options so most end up going with a 20" wheel. The supercharged motor also means extra cooling that makes it harder to trim inner fenders for larger tires. 32" is about the biggest you'll manage without surgery.

    I have a 2018 GLS550 with 50k miles. No problem. Just the maintenance is kind of expensive. Last service cost over $3000, just maintenance, new tires, and new battery. It is still a joy to drive, and more powerful and faster than a lot of sports cars. Every time some kids with sports car think they can out run me, they are stunned to find out I can stay on their tail or even pass them. I enjoy their stunned look. I’m riding in a 3 row SUV with my daughter in my back seat.

    We have an ageing 2013 TDV8 4.4L vogue SWB Diesel, here in the UK its on 86,000 miles, its use it to haul large boats up a slipway in a boat yard and it parks the boats in storage its rarely driven on road, we find it to be an extremely capable vehicle it tows 6 tonne yachts with ease the torque it produces at 1500rpms is something else, its only issues to date is a cracked windscreen and a water leak into the passenger foot well, only concerns are the rear tyres on the inner edge wear pretty alarmingly , but its used as a work horse so to be expected, we bought the car used in 2018 with 71,200 for £26,000 GBP with a part service history, it s get serviced at the local village garage annually and the bill is usually for serviceable items and is around £500 which I think is inexpensive, not LR, I cannot rate it enough and is as good as the rotten old 4.4L Landcruiser it replaced. The car is a bit battered and bruised cosmetically and it needs a deep clean but we will keep it until the car becomes un economical to the business. What we will replace it with who knows as it not manufactured any longer in the UK with this engine. The car has been 100% reliable. We modified the car to have a front tow hitch and and an extra down draught cooling fan in the engine bay which we operate at the flick of a switch.

    No surprised there for the RR. It’s also possible that it only has the reverse camera. My Discovery Sport only has the rear camera (whoever configured it didn’t choose the 360° camera option - I bought it used). When you first mentioned the incline of Baby Lion’s Back you said in degrees ° but then when driving you were calling out percents! Which was it as I believe LR show the incline in degrees not percent? The RR as far as I know can climb 45° slope (with enough traction of course) and can descend 45°. The new Defender 110 can climb 45° and descend 47° slopes. My 2015 7-seat (5+2) 2.0ℓ petrol turbo DS can climb & descend 45° slopes (traction dependent). It doesn’t have a low range but has 1st gear as a granny/crawler gear and a variable centre diff. My car would easily traverse what you did in the RR including the wading. But the RR should be more capable as I have no air suspension. And I have AT tyres though. Land Rovers are amazingly capable.

    Highly capable for 8.6 nanoseconds and then the shit hits the fan. Yep, you guessed it some factory worker re-routed the overboard shit dispenser and it got redirected to the radiator. The fan blew it over the air filter inlet and the MAF ingested it. The Oxygen sensor was not calibrated for methane and the completely altered the timing causing all 32 valves to smash into the pistons and the exhaust valves went into the turbo, making an enormous bang and lots of smoke. The turbo threw all the bits of valves and turbo vanes into all the 8 cylinders via the missing inlet valves. So much material was jammed in the cylinder heads, that the conrods snapped and disappeared out of the block via alternators, fuel lines, AT cooling lines, intercooler hoses etc. The resultant fireball blew off the hood (bonnet) and severed the head of a passing motor cyclist, whilst the motorbike continued on its way, with its headless rider until and it collided, head-on, with a woman taking her kids to school. Both were killed. Meanwhile the RR had come to a stop and on the verge and continued to burn after the explosion. Several acres of farmland were destroyed as were some very expensive cows. The driver managed to escape unharmed. He was heard to say, "Bollox, the insurers will never believe this, I'll need to buy another one".

    "If you cant afford it new, you shouldnt buy it used". If you are maxing your $40k budget and shopping the idea of this next to a 2023 Explorer, buy the Explorer. But if a 2023 $140k RR is in the budget and you dont need to flaunt the latest and greatest, you will easily afford the fixes that pop up along the way and its hard not to see the value in this 60% off MSRP with nearly all the capability of a 2023. 2017 is GOAT year, keeps the tactile buttons / HVAC controls with the updated Carplay screen.
