1996 Land Rover Range Rover vogue hse review from Australia and New Zealand
"An SUV for the Elite"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Well I have only had it for about 2 months now and
already within the first week a switch in the ABS has
already become destroyed...
General comments?
My range rover is obviously the high-spec vogue HSE edition so its rather reliable minus its current problem
petrol wise, if I put about $40 in it goes to about half way of the gage. comfort is definitely a 10+ it's an excellent luxury SUV, in which here, in New Zealand, only the elite can afford them. I've noticed when I drive my range rover, comparing to my jeep people are more tolerant to me pushing in, turning and giving way and nobody has tried to tailgate me so far which is definitely a good feeling when driving. Anyway an excellent British SUV with questionable mechanical faults which in my case will prove itself in time...
