Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

This is basically a good car, in fact a very good car. It drives well, is roomy, comfortable and can do the dual function off road and tarmac. However what does let it down is the reliability and Dealer support. If you own any Land Rover, vehicle, from 2015, with the 2 litre diesel engine you must take it for long frequent drives at Motorway speeds it you don't then the diesel particulate filter (DPF) will become clogged up and then block. You will receive an engine management light to let you know, but this can be too late. If the light goes to red then you need a new filter, £2,500. Your Dealer will tell you it's your fault because you haven't driven it correctly. So do not buy this vehicle unless you do hundreds of Motorway miles each week.
