Hi,
About to ditch my Discovery MkII (V8) for a new Range Rover Vogue
3.0TD.What's the general consensus on the new Range Rover? Worth the money? How reliable are they? Is the depreciation respectable?
I had vowed not to buy another Land Rover due to the never ending line of repairs my Disco's had. The MKII is worse than my MKI. Nothing major, just stupid little things like heated seats, windscreens, dead CAT after 30K, etc. I made a lot of the 3 year warranty...
Is the new RR better? Anything to watch for?
Looking around the 2nd hand market the perception I get is that (in the right colour/model) the car holds its value very well. Currently in the UK it seem impossible to get hold of an old green TD6 Vogue of a year or so old. My dealer seems to do a good turn over of the cars.
I've had 2 Discoverys now, both V8's. A MK I then a MK II. Originally went for the V8 Disco because the diesels were so noisey and I had a new baby at the time of each purchase (test drove a diesel and it woke up my 6 month old son!). The RR TD6 seems very quiet inside and out.
Borrowed a V8 Vogue for the weekend and just didn't want to give it back today. Totally blown away by the car.
If you've got strong views please back them up with online references. Anyone got an good online reviews of the car?
Thanks! George
PS Anyone want to buy my Disco MK II? :-)
