Come on Dill

Give him a break. We are all friends on here. We all know that BM and LR are different vehicles and fulfill different purposes. There are those (I am not one) who feel that an RR makes them feel superior mad is a posey vehicle. The BM is more nimble and perhaps more of a hard ride sport oriented drive. We all like different things and we have different driving profiles.

I have had 2 RRSs and I have had to reject one. Would I have another one? Probably one day. But now I am in the process of speccing an M3 because I want that kind of driving experience.

Yes mine did have a fault and it annoyed the hell out of me and i wanted to reject it, but it would have been for another!
You have rejected it for faults you belived you would get just because you read about them on here, again shows your lack of common sense.
Then to cap it all, after coming on here on your own free will to ask advice you pull the ' thats all i have to say and i am off' gag, some ones disagreed with your views and you cant hack it, just like a few others on here.


DRDILL, I only started this thread to explain why I was switching loyalties, not to have a go at Land Rover owners.

I have tried to share my knowledge in the 500 odd posts I have made and indeed supplied many on here with the detailed information about the MY16 release that I had been given by Land Rover.

I expected some banter about BMW's and did not think I was looking for advice. Sorry that you have such a reaction to my posts and as I said I am not necessarily ruling LR products in the future.

Buying a car is often swayed by the heart and emotion and in this case I had really lost that for the RRS2. 2023 P440e SE Dynamic on order -cancelled

I did not post for the reasons that you seem to have assumed, and the car was held back by Land Rover not the dealer.

Land Rover did not say why, so my dealer was unable to give me any information.

I have laid out my reasons, whether you accept them or not is up to you.

There is not much more I can add, at the end of the day I fell out of "love" with the RRS2. 2023 P440e SE Dynamic on order -cancelled

I still have my Black Edition and bought it new in 2013 with the knowledge a new model was due.

I had 2 problems, the disc pads had to be replaced as the factory fitted ones were warped.
I had a loud rattle that turned out to be the boot not latching up tight.

Otherwise I would say it has been pretty reliable. 2023 P440e SE Dynamic on order -cancelled

The problem with any marque-specific forum is that it mainly attracts folks with issues with their vehicles.

The vast, happy and satisfied, majority stay away in droves.......................... MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.

Yes I am happy and am looking forward to delivery, as you say at the end of the day it is all down to personal choice.

I may be back again, there was a break of others cars between the 2 sports that I have owned and I am will certainly have a look at the new Discovery when it comes along. 2023 P440e SE Dynamic on order -cancelled
