Australia 2007 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey
1 year later

Just a quick note to say to any doubters out there that I've owned my TDV6 for almost 1 year now and, surprisingly, I've had ZERO problems/issues with it, not even a squeak or a rattle. Everything works beautifully. Perhaps I'm just lucky but I get the impression that LR got this one right.

Cheers,
Rick. TDV6 / Stornoway Grey + Black / Rhodium / Sunroof / Side Steps / DVD / SatNav / 19" Wheels / Bi-Xenon / Premium ICE / Nudge Bar

And mine... 26k, sold on, not a single issue. Well, they stuck the grab handles on the wrong way round, but aside from that Rolling Eyes

This is the norm of course, but we obviously only hear about the problematic ones. Such is the nature of things Very Happy

Wales 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Rimini Red

Owned my tdv6 for about 6 Months and around 5000 miles and only had minor problems. 1 warning light which was sorted by dealer and fuel filler cap wouldn't open on two occasions. Otherwise fault free and definately the best car i've owned.

Australia 2010 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 HSE Fuji White

hmm, it had to be recovered when the wife drove it Laughing but it was exactly 8 km's after an engine management upgrade and apparently some spotty apprentice forgot to change a sensor, paint defects, EPB problem, the brake hose recall, a few trims replaced due to discolouring, new steering rack.. a set of saucepans, a cuddly toy Rolling with laughter

But i would not change it for the world, maybe a nice blonde though Thumbs Up Another Pommie Bar Steward down under

South Africa 2008 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Zermatt Silver

Guys.... I can't tell you how excited I am to get my RRS TDV8 next week. Especially after reading all your happy comments. I've been driving X5's since their inception, unfortunately my 2007 model has been an endless mare!! I've had it for 6 months and it has been in to the local dealer in Kimberley, 14 times for problems ranging from memory loss, handbreak disengement problems to navigation and Tire preasure monitor mal's...... to make my problem worse, I can't sell the cow unless I'm willing to lose R150k (About 10k Pounds)... I'm not bye the way, so seeing as I have no choice I will be passing the problem on to my Mrs. Poor woman!! Big Cry Big Cry for X5 Bow down Thumbs Up for RRS
