It’s a Range Rover, so it will certainly not be the last time it will be on a tow truck, where it will indeed still look good.
Lucas Electrical systems?
Got 15 months on my rover, so far so good. Love the vehicle after coming from mostly German brands.
Lol...same thought passed my mind. I warned someone recently who was all excited about buying one. I told them about the mechanical issues and that they are a wealthy persons status symbol because you have to be wealthy to keep it running. They bought it and went through a nightmare experience and sold it within 2 months. They didn’t really learn because they bought another vehicle I consider to be a high maintenance brand but haven’t been as talkative about this one.
A buddy of mine got a spectacular used one last year and... brought it out to the ranch :-). This was the second time he’d brought an all wheel drive car out with pretty well used tire’s and ended up going home with 4 new, since you can’t put one new tire on an AWD vehicle. Plus side was he saved about $700 over buying them in NorCal.
The vehicle is awesome, but realizing there is a hard drive in its computer system that will punish you if it fails would be a definite drawback for me.
I can see you are familiar with RR reliability!
