Is this the Best Car Money Can Buy?

by BrianCam Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200
Nov 09 '02 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Great to look at, Smooth Ride, Beautiful interior, Much Improved Engine
Cons: Confusing Nav System
The Bottom Line: Go anywhere, do anything and look super doing it - that's the Range Rover in a nutshell. The previous model was a complete toad! The 2003 version is spectacular.

From the moment one lays eyes on the new Range Rover, nothing short of “beautiful” comes to mind. Luxury and beauty are evident from first glance. Noting that the previous Range Rover was stunning only in its mediocrity all the more enhances...

Classic, Comfortable, Capable

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: * Excellent fit and finish * Amazingly quiet * Luxury-car ride * Beautiful interior
Cons: * Horrible Navigation system. * Poor fuel economy
The Bottom Line: If you want a luxury car ride, exceptional off-road capability, and a classy vehicle that will take you down muddy slopes as easily as to dinner,

This is my second Range Rover so far. My first was a 1996 4.6 HSE that I had purchased used in 1998, under the Land Rover certified used vehicle program. I had not been interested in Range Rovers initially, but after my first few days with the old one,...

Very Impressive

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Comfortable + Roomy, Well Thought Out Design, Impressive Feature List
Cons: Poor Tire Traction, GPS could be more Ergonomic
The Bottom Line: Top of the line SUV packed with features

Let me begin by saying that I believe that the 2003 Range Rover is first in its class in luxury, design and features. This Range Rover is a status symbol by all means; if it doesn’t say so through it’s impressive looks or solid presence, then its ...

Land Rover Discovery - Big, expensive and roomy!

by skyrydr Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500
Jan 04 '03 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Great looking vehicle and exceptional roomy interior.
Cons: Stiff and not a real comfortable ride.
The Bottom Line: Great rental car but not one I would buy. Great looking vehicle, but the comfort is not there for long rides and suspension system is stiff and hard.

The 2003 Land Rover Discovery V-8 was a recent rental. We enjoyed the initial novelty of it. However, it is British and not conventional to the American driver. I am a frequent renter of all kinds of vehicles, and found difficulty determining various...

A dream become a nightmare

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 1.0 Recommended: No 

Pros: A beautifully crafted piece of artwork, looks great, comfortable, luxurious feel, quality materials
Cons: Ruined by lousy workmanship, electrical glitches galore and unresponsive, uncaring management
The Bottom Line: Land Rover's reputation for poor quality is true. Their Management could use some Public Relations skills. BMW should have sold Land Rover to Lexus instead of Ford.

I have dreamed of owning a Range Rover since I first rode in one as a child in Switzerland in 1971. In 2003 I was finally able to realize that dream and in late May I bought a 2003 Range Rover. The truck is beautiful, it is the ultimate SUV for comfort ...

Absolutely fabulous!

Mar 05 '03 - Updated May 24 '03 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: leg and headroom, buttons everywhere, drives great, gorgeous interior
Cons: Ignition key not as cool as previous model
The Bottom Line: I would recommend it. We have received excellent service from the dealer in our area (for 5 years). Just make sure you have deep pockets for repairs.

First I'd like to say that this is my 3rd Range Rover. The first was a 93 long wheel base (LWB) and the 2nd was a 2000 4.6 HSE w/navigation. I have loved and hated both of them.

The 2003 model has SO much more room for driver, passengers...

Why settle for less than the best???

by roccco
Dec 07 '03 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Flawless Ride, Impeccable Design and Abundant Interior Space
Cons: A Bit Greedy On Fuel Cosumption, But Not Much More Than Others Near Its Class
The Bottom Line: Driving is no longer a chore and now a pleasure. My Porsche is nice for an occasional spin, but for everyday use, the Range Rover wins hands down.

Originally I was going to be content with an Infiniti FX45, but thank God for poor customer service at Infiniti, where after 15 minutes of wandering the lot and showroom, a salesperson could not be bothered to approach me. On the same day, I did also ...

Do yourself a favor and keep looking

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 1.0 Recommended: No 
Pros: It might have one of the nicest interiors out there.
Cons: I could go on forever. See body
I’ve owned a lot of high end vehicles and the new Rang Rover is hands down the most disappointing. If it were $30,000.00 less, I might be able to overlook some of its flaws, but it’s not so I won’t. After the wonderful interior it’s all down hill. This things is built terribly. I had so many problems, I just gave up and got rid of it. It’s noisy inside, way to noisy for a high end SUV.
A partial list of problems:
Bad sway bars. Bad Radio (never fixed). Bad Amp. Intermittent connection from radio to CD player. Sunroof made a lot of wind noise. Main AC control panel failed. Headlights failed. Woefully inadequate NAV system. Hard to use and way out of date.
I could go on forever....

I replaced it with an Escalade. Not quite as nice inside, but far superior in every other category and $18,000.00 cheaper.
