“Oh no he didn’t wash his hands.  He’s getting in the car...  Why didn’t you wash your hands??? OMG THE INTERIOR OF THAT CAR IS SO CLEAN FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WASH YOUR HANDS!!!” -my brain

Said it before and I’ll say it again, I like my tires’ aspect ratio how I like my retirement communities, 55 and up!

Said it before, will say it again. Sidewall=good. The more sidewall, the less of those forces transfer into the car. Yes youll lose some handling, but for a daily driver? More sidewall. 

I am all for this as long as the buyer knows a good Jag mechanic - and has something like 300-500 bucks a month for repairs... and a second car to drive.

What the hell is going on with the air intakes. I looks like someone duct taped dryer vents to dickie cups.

“The A/C is also said to suffer a rapid leak”

It’s a nice price as long as you view it like a membership at an exclusive country club. That is, the $5000 is your initiative fee and you will be billed on a regular basis after that.

So, leveling down to match the worst item of the bunch until none is functional? Looks like a GOP convention.

When I was researching, before I’d even purchased my Rover, they brought up this statistic that “… ±60% of Land Rovers ever produced are still running …”. Suitably impressed, I eventually bought mine.

Came here for this, It’s something of a Matthew Vaughn movie Easter egg. Dexter Fletcher’s character has the same name in  Kick Ass and also drives a yellow P38.

Nothing says “Check out the size of my wallet!” like a bright yellow Range on a flat bed tow truck.

Everybody always acts like the bags are the one and only fail point in the EAS. Yeah those are pretty affordable aftermarket but, as the owner of multiple LR’s (all pre 2000), the EAS was a veritable nightmare well beyond the bags. Leveling sensors that failed, compressors that went out, and valves that malfunctioned a

That’s right, this amazingly yellow P38 Vitesse sports 208,000 miles under its factory alloys, and not only is it seemingly still standing and running but it looks George Clooney cool while doing it.

The whole article and not a single Layer Cake ref?  Slipping man, slipping.

My friend had one, and he submitted an owner review, and it was really funny. I wish I can remember the exact wording of it. He described the self leveling suspension having a low IQ, and in a colorful language he went on portraying how, after parked, one would try to adjust to the others and fail, and others try to

It will definitely be easy for the tow truck driver to spot on the side of the road. 

My same thoughts on the coils. This guy is a cheap bastard twice, once with the swap and now expecting me to pay his price premium AND replace them.

Nice Price. I can’t think of a more perfect color for a Range Rover destined to spend some quality time stranding it's owner on the side of the road.

This. I voted NP because it is actually. But any owner had better be prepared to spend another $4500 on anything else that will need maintenance. I also have a huge soft spot for the E38 because it just so damn gorgeous. So NP - as long as the future owner knows what they’re getting into.

You don’t have to have it set aside, you just have to be able to afford it if it happens. Listen, you can buy a $4.5k subaru and should be able to afford a $2-3k head gasket job if it pops up. This is basic stuff, it doesn’t make it a CP. You just need to know it.
