Are you for real? The Range Rover is a British car, designed and built in Britain. They were released here first in 2002 (as they are ours) and went to the US a year later... It's a BMW engine 02-2005/6jdholder said:HiJack Post -
Were MKIII's available in Europe? I think the first model year of the MKIII in the USA was 03. Was the 02 MKIII a BMW motored vehicle? Anything else different from 02 to 03?

Keep thinking that. Pretty sure you are aready a delusional Land Rover owner (like myself).linuxfreakus said:I don't think the ongoing cost is likely to be so much every year... what is it that keeps costing thousands per year? Most stuff like brakes, hoses, fluids, radiators, filters, pumps, tires, bushings, gaskets/seals, and other commonly replaced parts are priced pretty normally and are the more or less the same as what you would pay for any vehicle.
I'm very pleased to read you think so. Its had a Gearbox, oil cooler, radiator, suspension pump and associated bits, various hoses, battery, rear brake system, wheel bearings, suspension bushes, parking sensors, a final stage resister, the front diff mod, a couple of services and a few cosmetic additions. More than £6000 in 18 months. The list is long....but there's loads of bits I've had no problem with yet....and no reason to think they are going to be any more robust than the rest.linuxfreakus said:I don't think the ongoing cost is likely to be so much every year....
On the flip side I've run a P38 for 3 years with no more than normal maintenance and probably £100 a year on misc parts. So far the L322 has needed a couple of suspension joints and a water pump. All bits come to under £500 for two years of L322 ownership....MPx said:I'm very pleased to read you think so.

I've run Lotus cars for over 20 years so I'm well aware of what "normal running costs" might mean. They've never let me down. The Rangey is in an entirely different league!
