Guest ccarrgo Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I know this is not a porsche topic, but looking for info. I am looking at buying another SUV. I am looking at a LR3 or a jeep commander. If anyone owns one of these or has info on them, to help with my dicision. Thank you Cody Quote Link to comment
Brodie Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I don't own a Land Rover or a Jeep, but a friend of mine has owned a Land Rover for over 2 years and absolutely loves it. Here are some of the things he has told me and I have noticed. - The traction control is second to none and makes you feel really of confident driving in the winter regardless of the conditions. - The interior is nice and well laid out, with a feeling of luxury. - High tech everything. - He says that this type of vehicle needs to be well maintained. If anything breaks or needs attention he takes care of it right away. - They are also known for those nasty little electrical gremlins. I would be interested in buying one myself but was scared away with Land Rover being named the brand with most issues by JD Powers. Hopefully that helps you a little. Quote Link to comment
unreal6 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 - They are also known for those nasty little electrical gremlins. Odd that a british vehicle would experience electrical issues. Must be a new thing... Quote Ian 65 T34 75 914 2.7-6 86 951 Link to comment

tbull Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Call my buddy Vern Roux at the Rover Shop and tell him you know me Ted (Bull). He is the man that knows more about Rovers than anyone else in the city!!! Quote Link to comment
Guest ccarrgo Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Thanks everyone. Still looking, but I sure love the look (inside and out) of the LR3. And thanks Ted I will be giving your friend a call. And yes I agree with Danielle, you should be sleeping at 4:28 am Fritz. Quote Link to comment
Rick Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 (edited) Lucas electric, was the original inventor of the intermittent wipers. SOME TIMES THEY WORK AND SOME TIMES THEY DON'T. Have you ever heard the saying "Lucas - Prince of Dakness" On a more serious note, we have friends who currently have two Range Rover (Supercharged) and have had zero problems with both. They do however follow the recommended maintenance schedule to a tee. cheers! Edited October 22, 2010 by Rick Quote Link to comment

Fritz Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Danielle, I was finished with my beauty sleep and had to get up. If I sleep longer, I am better looking than Brodie. Fritz Quote Link to comment
