Yes indeed. High tech too for its time, that BMW-owned Land Rover benchmarked the LX 470 for development of the 2002 L322 Range Rover in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Sat at the top with the Range Rover, until LX fell behind in mid 2000s and other SUVs entered the marketplace. Navigator and Escalade were not as polished. 100 Series was state of the art in 1998, with a color in dash touchscreen navigation and infotainment system, before anyone else had it. Multizone climate control, AHC, and etc. Prestige was owning one of these or a Range Rover 4.6 back in the day. An ML320 or ML430 wasn’t that special. Nor was a 5 seater X5.

@@Porsche996driver Owning countless BMW M vehicles, as well as myself and my extended family often using fleet X5s and X7s internationally, alongside Land Cruiser 200s and LX 570s to date, I can confidently say you're full of it and another sad example of the typical BMW fanatic, who knows nothing of being objective and only looking for the next snarky comment to pass. My maternal grandfather imported, sold, and serviced BMWs in much of the latter Cold War era. It's almost in my blood. In fact, he did that just up until the Quandt family and BMW board of management, authorized advanced internal studies of sport utility development, prior to the Rover purchase in 1994. BMW board voted to spend the capital on a modified unibody E39 basis for the E53 X5, because to replicate a vehicle like the larger 80-Series Land Cruiser VX or similar Gelandewagen, was prohibitively expensive into the higher billions. The fact that then head of BMW Group R&D Dr. Wolfgang Reitzle had Land Rover benchmark the UZJ100 and not Navigator nor Escalade, is a testament to how well regarded it was, to the Teutonic perfectionist in him, as someone who also guided development of the E53 X5. I make it my business as an automotive product planner professionally and as an automotive historian personally, to learn about every automobile past, present, and future objectively. Often are many of you other BMW enthusiasts ever so arrogant to proclaim empty declarations, as if you know relatively how well this compared to vehicles of its day. I am able to use vehicles like these Toyota and Lexus body on frame utilities in both the city and rural regions of the world, at the same levels of comfort I can expect in a BMW utility or Land Rover. I never dare use the latter from semi-rural or rural runs, because on many occasions they encounter issues and the nearest capital city or major metro with a certified service centre, is rarely guaranteed. Toyota did a fine job with this vehicle and only later lost their competitive edge from resting on their laurels.

LX 470s made from the summer of 2002 to spring 2005, do not have the more powerful V8, but do have the newer interior and updated styling. They were not literally made from 2003 to 2007. Model years are NOT literal and do not describe production periods for vehicles. A 2003 model of any brand could be made anywhere from September 2001 to December 2003, if launched anywhere between January 1, 2002 and December 31, 2003.

In an odd move, Toyota began the slow roll out of the Tundra from February 1998, when it was revealed as the T-150 and renamed Tundra by press introduction in late 1998. It later went on sale June 1, 1999. John is correct about the LS400 engine the UZ V8 being shared with the LX 470 bored out to 4.7 liters.

Lots for its time. In some markets, had GPS Navigation from 1998 as Land Cruiser Cygnus.

Pretty much exactly what todays version costs, as the online inflation calculator I just used had this at $99K in today's dollars...

There's Range Rovers and Discoveries from that time period that are in the scrapyard, while this LX is still running on.

Why, in 1998, would you have bought that over-glizted piece if shite, when you could have had a Range Rover for the same money?
@blue-tb2fdАй бұрын
After 10 years of dealing with the Range Rover, yes you absolutely would have bought this
