I would be very grateful if current Range Rover owners could list the top 3 things that they like about the model and the top 3 dislikes. If the answers could be restricted to 2 or 3 words per like or dislike and based on the vehicle or the overall customer experience.

As a thank you I will select (at random) a forum member from those who have responded before 9am on Thursday 31st March and send them an off road voucher. The draw will take place later on Thursday.

If you could reply to this post as set out below then it would be appreciated.

It's very interesting so far to go and compare the remarks here with the remarks on RRSport and Freel2............. one negative comment comes up in a lot of the posts regarding Land Rover Customer Services........... and not once do D3 owners comment about LRCS, just about the high costs of servicing! 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

Like
1. Refined driving
2. Feeling of luxury
3. Towing - never know I have our caravan on the back

Dislikes
1. Reliability- Very bad on such an expensive car
2. Dealers - Never seem that bothered anymore
3. Both the above

Dislikes are the reason why I am selling / sold both my TD6 and TDV8 and leaving the brand all together. Just not worth it.

And mine then.

LIKE
1. Supremely comfortable
2. Awesome TDV8 engine
3. Excellent tow car

DISLIKE.
1. Parts costs
2. Leather doesn't wear well (compared to wifey's Jag XF)
3. No input to nav whilst moving. Pants.

Here goes:

Like

1. Versatility/capability - this car is all things - it can do pretty much anything you ask of it. UNSTOPPABLE
2. Comfort - need I say more? Long journeys are sooo easy
3. Presence on the road - the vehicle looks AND feels special

Dislike

1. Costs - everything associated with this marque means you pay a premium. Not all FFRR owners are minted
2. After sales service/support from dealerships - also ties in with point 1 above
3. Presence on the road - Other road users perception of FFRR drivers (winter is the only time we are not looked upon in the same light as murderers!!!).
