Looks nice Daniel.

 

Steve, that's the sort of thing I've been looking at upgrading to.

 

Not sure I dare get involved with that one though, given the glowing reports you've given on it😜

I have a RR Sport, had it 2 and a half years.

I'd heard all the scare stories!

I've spent £560 on it in that time, 3 tyres and brakes all round last month.

I tow my 3 ton Cat and my 7.5m caravan with it. It's an amazing vehicle!

I've also had it places my pimped up Hilux wouldn't go!

I have had mine 9 months it was mint 60k on the clock full lr history. No worse than any other D4 and they will all suffer these problems and alot more. Dont what ever you do spend proper money on these money pits. 10k for a d3 toy fine but a d4 just out of warranty is a gift from satan.

Mine has had since November a complete new front diff, four days later the turbo actuator went, the rear hand brake shoes cooked the rear disc, tlast week the compressor failed and day after touchscreen audio system blank screen, numerous tyres and a proper towbar because they decided the swan neck is no good for proper towing . I would say £5000 and I need to get it through the mot next week and have a feeling the rear bushes have gone.

 

My Amazon is 15 years old and it has had 2 new front calipers, set of brake discs, one complete exhaust and a cam belt, otherwise faultless.

Anything without a Land Rover badge Jon. The latest Landcruiser is expensive and a bit too electronic so could be in for similar problems. Last of the 100 series still good cars but over 6 years old now.
