2000 Land Rover Range Rover HSE review from UK and Ireland
"An excellent boarding hack!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only a puncture I picked up while driving on the French Auto-route.
19 to the gallon.
General comments?
The Range Rover is seriously good car for most purposes, it is not a fun car to drive hard on tarmac but is an effortless cruiser that will swallow all of your essentials and go anywhere. I used it recently to carry me and my girlfriend's luggage, 2 snowboards, and full equipment all the way to Austria and the Rover proved faultless.
My only real gripe is insurance, my premium is £2,800 for fully comprehensive cover, due to the fact I'm 19. The purchase price; the thick end of £30,000 as a dealer approved car was reasonable.
The performance from 4.6 litres of V8 is perfectly capable of gaining 60 miles per hour in around 9 seconds and top end cruising of 100 MPH+.
The new clear indicator lenses are pretty cool and give the car a classy look. The ladies seem to like it too with plenty of room inside.
