Ireland 2015 Range Rover Autobiography SDV8 Corris Grey

About 35k kilometres in mine this year , no brealdowns but i get it serviced every 8-10k kilometres and keep on top of everything little thing. Love it and enjoy it every drive. Needs EPB fitted in the next few weeks and thats it back to perfect again. Driving over 30 years now and dtiven everthing from exotic to mundane and this tops the list. Only thing that came close to the feeling was a pale blue 400i that i drove daily back in 1987 but i was young and impressionable in those days. 2015 4.4 AB

Collected her beginning of November, done 4k miles already Shocked

Had new lower arms under warranty in attempt to cure brake shudder, then new front discs and pads, then finally new rear discs and pads and all is now well.

Suspect oil leak but haven't had a chance to look properly yet..

Loving every minute! Bish.

Not the most inexpensive year, but not too bad overall. Front crankcase gasket replaced to the tune of £850 and a new battery required at around £120. Got the deployable steps fitted, which is a top feature and I would thoroughly recommend Thumbs Up SDV8 AB MY 2019

I was right to wait.

One day later, I had to drive down some paved lanes with a lot of mud on the road and on reaching home, the passenger side deployable step retracts and immediately deploys again, accompanied by some horrible metal on metal rubbing noises.

I am hoping it is just a case of cleaning and lubricating otherwise it's back to the dealers twice (one for them to verify and once for them to do) for a warranty claim.

Hey ho, at least it went twelve months of ownership without a fault if not 2016.

The good news is that it has run fine all year and apart from fuel the only costs have been a scheduled service and MOT test, plus freeing off of all brakes and some coolant.

The bad news is that both rear shocks and one of the turbos are leaking oil, and there are some further corrosion issues, including behind passenger side wheel arch, upper tailgate struts and wheels. Only Range Rovers since 1988
