Good Points

None for me.


Bad Points

Engine over-heats in slow moving traffic. ABS light flickers constantly. Air con hopeless. MPG poor, 20-24mpg and 15-18mpg when towing. Lousy build quality. Loud, intrusive tyre noise. Poor sound proofing, poor brakes. Head gaskets blow very easily (and expensively). Cheap audio system, poor switch gear, opening the rear door is a joke and lots of other things that I could mention, but wont bore you with.


General Comments

I bought this 'heap of rubbish' 3 weeks ago thinking that with it being a land Rover it would go on for ever and would be built to last. I should have read the reviews before buying, I agree with virtually everyone that this is a poor car, in fact I would say it's the worst car I have ever bought. I have owned several Japanese 4x4's and they are so much better in every respect.
