Land Rover Range Rover 3.9 EFi Vogue 4d Auto (1990/G) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Cheap to buy and many to choose from so be very picky!
Costs
Very, very expensive to maintain. Petrol is NOT the major cost, but repairs.

On the road
Driving
Drives fantastically if it works. Like an armchair with a commanding driving position.
Performance
3.9 is pretty fast and more than enough power for the car.

Living with it
Reliability
Highly unreliable. Had mine for 1.5 years and spent about £8k on essential repairs including a new 4.6 engine as old one (76k) died.
Image
Always makes an impression in car park - especially if muddy.
Comfort
Very comfortable - high speed only nice with anti-roll bars.

Security and Service
Security
Have alarm and immobiliser fitted for peace of mind.
Service
Only went to so called 'specialist' who contributed to engine's early demise. Only go to real enhusiast's garage!
