Range Rover Review: Should You Buy A USED Range Rover? 

No

Can’t risk it

@@samiraescobar7222 lmao

@@SeanGriffith7 fair

What was the vibe of this guy 🧐

Well said!

Thanks for the advice.. 2017 hse fully loaded. Supercharged, all black package. 84,345 miles., fig, enclosed, fully warranty,$217, car sheild. Going to get it, good looking

@@fordstone2725 Another thing I advise - because I always do this when I buy a used vehicle - take it to a dealer or reputable Rover mechanic as soon as you buy it (I prefer the dealer for my Rover) and have it put through the most intensive service they have, to include looking for problems not currently known or seen, and fix them if found. Doing that has always kept me out of service departments after that first initial service. Then I absolutely know I'm starting off in good shape. You have a warranty, but I think you'd come out even better spending your money on the front-end and hopefully never need to use the warranty. Just advise that has worked for me. I hope you enjoy it. I really really like mine, and it's my 3rd. Ive had a 2010, a previous 2014 with the V6, now this insane V8. I've never had any problems.

@@carycoller3140 of course that’s my plan already, the car also comes with an 90 day warranty, and that’s an plus, there’s also an dealership not to fare from me and I have already made an connection with them about the truck, looked up the vin and it was in deeded serviced with range over, also going to change the rotors, brakes, etc, but their also willing to change the brakes, but not what I would like, therefore going to do that on my own.. ceramic brakes, etc. good looking, be safe out there. Also did the Kelly blue book, so there asking price is on time also, but going to see if we can negotiate on the price as well,

@@fordstone2725 That's what's up 🙂👍. And you're putting on ceramic brakes? Wow!

How has it held up

Thanks

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾as a seasoned euro auto tech I approve of this message.

100% on all points!! Thank you!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Definitely agREed!!

Nah it’s really that awesome

Doesn't sound too bad!! Range's get a bad rap, but many "high end" cars experience small electronic issues with time and use...

Appreciate it dude! That’s kinda ‘my thing’ now hahaha

@@Reoniz it’s nice to give those visuals and comparisons. Channel looks good just not sure why you chose to crop yourself into the video thumbnails with a mask and gang signs lmao very immature looking can kinda steer away potential viewers.

Well.... I don’t think a peace sign is immature or a “gang sign” ... but I have changed my thumbnails up a bit if you check out my new videos !

Appreciate it man, I’d love to do either, I’ll try my best!!

Great comment!! Thank you for sharing your experience, sounds like quite the stable 😎

Haha ya I’m not a huge fan of debadging myself... but I think the first owner did it and my buddy didn’t bother putting it back on

When there are 20 badges in and out of the vehicle, debadging the most visible and ugly ones IMO makes it look more sleek.

I don’t like debadged look but talk about being transparently shallow. I guess a guy like you should buy enlarged badges and extra ones lol.

All fair points 👍

I bet its so quiet esp with the 5.0 , I personally think RR/LR age very very well compared to most and at 2015 RR will have all the mod cons that some cars dont even have today.

At least you know what you like!! There's nothing wrong with paying the associated price of having what you like in life! Enjoy!! (And the newer RR's are more reliable than ever, at least power plant wise)

Where did you buy the warranty?

Thanks for sharing this!! I was on the fence!! But looking at a bmw as well

Which warranty would you suggest for a used RR? And how much is it approximately? I am planning to buy 2014-2015 RR and do not want to have a surprise 😳😳 thanks a lot!

Thank you for your honesty Mr. Gardner. It's greatly appreciated. 👍😎

The windshield is a bit annoying yes!! This one has the heating function too, and I can't stand it in direct sunlight

That’s smart, keep looking and I’m sure you’ll find the right example !

Love to hear that! Enjoy

Word

There are many factors forsure, and maintenance, when it comes, will be expensive. My opinion is that if you enjoy the car and drive it a ton, some maintenance is worth the experience !!

How much did it cost to service brakes and how service it? Thanks

@@sidneyhill7064 - I took it to a LR dealer where I use to have faith in their service department. New GM fired all the service managers that had been their for years to bring his own people in. I was told I needed new brakes and tires as well as a minor service. I honestly don’t remember exactly what the brakes/pads cost but I do remember when I went to pick it up the service receptionist gave me a bill for $4,000. Obviously I went slightly postal when I saw a $750 service charge for something I was texted that it needed but had not heard of it and a $500 increase in the quoted price of the brake pads. The next day I entered the service area being sure they and every customer knew I was there. After demanding the service manager he proceeded to tell me he made a mistake in the quote for the brake pads because mine was a 8 cylinder Supercharged model and he quoted based on a 6 cylinder. I found this funny considering he was looking at my truck on his computer when he quoted me. The $750 charge, according to the service manager was a service for models with either 50,000 miles or 5 years old. I pointed out mine was 1 1/2 years old with 9,000 miles. I said what the hell then. He said we texted you that you needed this and you ok’d it so we cannot refund you but since I would not have recommended this service I will discount your new tires by the $750. Yea right. So if you take the $4,000 and deduct the $750 and $500 you get the approximate cost of the brakes plus the minor service which would be $2750. I went down the street to a Mercedes dealer, ordered the tires, had the, put on, aligned and balanced and it was still cheaper than the LR dealer with the $750 discount. I do not blame my RR, just the crooked dealer.

The dealership for the most part are crooked, I have a certified independent mechanic I deal with, I could get brake pads and rotors all around plus service fee for under $900. Theirs alot places you can purchase tires like Simpletires.com for example and have them shipped to wherever you want them installed at. As a matter if fact I will be doing that in the next 2-3 months on my 2015 range rover hse 22 inch tires. Depending on the tires I choose I'm looking to spend $900 -$1200 on tires plus installation.

@@sidneyhill7064 - Thanks. That’s good to know. My problem was that no one could order the 22 inch or at least that is what they said. I do need to find a good independent service place. The dealership I was talking about had a fantastic honest service department before the change of the GM.

That’s a smart strategy at this point !! Considering the all new model is likely coming in the next 12 months or so, waiting for the facelifts is a good call

Haha thanks!!

Thank you!!

Thank you!!

Yo!! This made my day :) congrats on the sport, drive safe!

@@Reoniz Thanks man, you too! Looking forward to the upcoming videos!

Hi mate, how’s your sport going?

Sounds like a great deal for you!! Congrats

Do you mean no Range Rover badging on front or back similar to the car in this video? If so, someone likely debadged it, which isn't a huge deal and can be reversed for a low cost. I personally prefer badges though, so I certainly understand!

There you have it folks!!! Thank you, you just validated my opinion with actual tangible examples :)

Thank you! Beautiful island you live on, I've heard there's some Ranges there?!

how does someone avoid that damage or its inevitable.

Apparently like this: Oil change every 10,000 km Avoid high engine speeds. If possible, avoid engine temperatures that are too cold, so head to the garage. Nevertheless, there remains an increased risk of engine damage due to incorrect engine design.@@luberengajohn3463

Very nice! 😎

Appreciate it!

Happy to hear it! 🥳😅🙏🏼

I have a 2015 hse for about a year and 0 problems

@@sidneyhill7064 Awesome! I believe that Mercedes, BMW and other brands are jealous of Land Rover. Looks like they pay a lot of money to have magazines say bad things about it. To have a reliable vehicle you must take care of it, or you’ll have problems, no exception.

@@falima2000 how do you take care of it?

Only one oil change in a year? Lmao

Really?? That's unfortunate.. to bad the liberal globalists are taking control.

That is unfortunate :/

Awesome 😎

That's a good strategy! The 4th Gen is lovely, especially the facelifted version 😎👍

Ya the newer stuff is a good deal more reliable than a 2000, but that's tough

Well said, I think they’re definitely beasts with the supercharged 8, solid SUV’s

Thanks I was trying to decide on the v8 or the diesel.

Wow another testament to the Range!! I used to be a skeptic, but you guys are seriously proving the old me wrong. Drive it in hood health, sounds like a beast 😎💪

Thank you 😎😎👍

No problem! I have an Evoque review as well if you're interested !

I bought one last month.

@@michelleg7360 😎

Appreciate you!

Thanks brotha! Good luck on your search 😤👍

You’re right, and can’t go with that diesel torque 🤤👍🏼

I own the TD6, it could be one of the best cars that I’ve ever owned, and I’ve owned nearly 60 cars. Super cheap-“used” because everyone is “scared”…. Not a single issue and we’re at 75K-miles

Gotchu! 😎👍

Thank you 😎👍

Hey that’s a hell of a way to live life !! And the new Range Rovers are awesome cars. My only suggestion if you want to buy a p525, would be to find a lightly used one for a bargain :)

Thank you!

Haha ya it's pretty crazy because those cars about the polar opposites in terms of reliability -- with Toyota and Lexus, reliability comes before anything; with Land Rover, it's like 4th on the list. They still get a bad rap, partially undeservingly, but it's quite the jump nonetheless.

I love the SVR Sport

what's the point of having it if u are not going to use it? I'm confused

They almost all do, especially newer ones!!

I'm not 100% certain, but I don't think it covers everything, likely most of these things though! You'd have to speak with your local dealer to confirm though

Gotchu!!

You technically can but it's quite pricey so I would recommend it!! It's not like the pre-facelift looks bad 😎

That's epic!

Lucky you

😤😤 yessir!!

Hahaha!! You got me :)

Old joke but funny because it’s true.

It’s definitely is on a timer ... an actual countdown timer shows up, I’m not sure of any work arounds sorry

Thanks dude , enjoy the beast.

You mean for the driving shots or for the car shots?

@@Reoniz for both. The quality is awesome!! Subscribign to your channel. Amazing!

@@PN-fw4tw thank you! Believe it or not, mostly iPhone and GoPro, nothing too crazy 😤

That's true forsure!

Hahaha thank you!! Check out my latest review... it's the new record holder 😅

@@Reoniz bet

More expensive than a new Telluride that's forsure

Thank you, and fair enough!!

Well that's a major difference in price! Of course the newer (lower spec'd) Range is the one to get... but you're saving a lot to go 16' - sounds like a financial decision to me!

@@Reoniz thanks. Yes, 2016 might be good financially. I will check that .

@@501soap sweet, good luck!

It definitely does not in this application. To be fair, the V8 is very powerful, but the 6 doesn't leave much to be desired. The diesel felt a bit sluggish though

Yes I got your message, it’s all good, the Sticker price was $119,466 fully loaded, got it for $45,446 warranty bumper to bumper, no worries or problems as of yet. But no even worried about it all, I don’t get things to worry about them

@@fordstone2725 that’s very good

Good looking, and with the black out package also, and with 22 inche wheels.

A baller like... Dababy?!? 😎

@@Reoniz 😧 you read my mind

That was only because the car was in auxiliary power mode (the engine was not running while the battery was on)... notice no check engine light in the driving clips!

Lmaooo

I have one sitting on 22s 2011 Range Rover Land Rover Sport supercharged everything is leather still beautiful car I got from a business man in Illinois Chicago he had it in the garage sand for a couple years he never drove it still a beautiful car I got a 17500 from him and I drove it back to Michigan it was amazing I'm passing cars like a still standing it makes a lot of haters turn

@@albujeyash2580 sounds like a beast 👌🏼

Wow... quite the difference

Lmao I don't necessarily agree... but the Land Cruisers a real beast!! What gen did you get?

No the full size Range Rover doesn't have an optional 3rd row, but the Range Rover Sport does!!

I loved that style so much. But it doesn't have a 3rd row. Very disappointed for that nice suv.

@@rya4841 ya it's a bit of shame that it's not even an option, but there's an all new Range Rover full size coming out very soon... so who knows, it might get that option!!

Ya it's the one big risk... but luckily there are both many lower mileage used examples, and Range's with warranty left!

CarMax RR has a bumper to bumper 125k warranty, with $50 deductible, and costs 10k. I bought a 2015 sport supercharged with 56k Miles last year, I’ve used 3,500 of the warranty - 1 air strut, alternator, and shifter spring.

@@kendesilva468 seems like a good deal. With these luxury cars, someone has to pay to play. If not, there are options like cheap kias etc. I rather pay to play because I only have one life to live. 125k is a good deal. How many yrs?

@@nature10879 well said. I feel the same way. I think it added 5 or 6 years from the date I purchased the car.

Damn I'm sorry to hear that :/ hope you're able to have everything resolved or get into a vehicle with less issues 😤👍

Hate to hear that :/

This is actually great advice... while I think Range Rover's get a bad rap, a 45k used Range almost certainly will cost you more in maintenance than a new $45k car... It's just that the new $45k car won't be as luxurious or have the provenance of a Range (but at a cost of course)

Haha ya... I mean the mileage isn't super high, but the trucks coming in on 9 years old in a matter of months! It's definitely seen it's fair share of a beating (trust me I would know 😂)

Me too, I’m considering buying a 2012 evoque but I’m not sure if it’s worth it

This car was right around $100k when new in 2014, and is now worth somewhere in the $40k-$45k range

Vogue! Here in the states it's just called "the Range Rover"

I was referencing the stealership... 😂

@@Reoniz absolutely right

@@sidneyhill7064 😎👍

Haha ok I can dig that analogy 👍

@@Reoniz seriously if Range Rover has a toyota reliability - they can easily become the best ever SUV -

@@jd5179 maybe one day 🤞

I did not!

Which is why buying CPO can often be the financially savvy thing to do!!

I ve sold my 1,5 year old lexus with 20k miles for the same money that we bought it )
