Well I've now had my L405 Range Rover for two years and today I'm going to answer the question most people want to know the answer to... has it been reliable?

When I was a kid a car was unreliable when it needed a jump start more than once a week. Now a car is unreliable if a seat massage motor burns out.

We're also much more demanding as a species these days. Back in the 80's you would just get things that broke fixed when it was time for a service. Now we can't go a week without an automatically dimming rear view mirror. I'm as guilty as anyone of this, not judging@@HighPeakAutos

I’m led to believe reliability went massively up with this generation. They’re still out of reach of the masses that will invariably mistreat them and complain that their then 15 year old, formerly £100,000 car has blown an engine after 30,000 miles at full tilt without so much as topping up the screen wash. They’re still in the range of people who follow service schedules, even if they don’t understand why it’s necessary.

...except that RR has had this poor reputation over many, many years and many, many thousands of vehicles produced. I'm sure there are owners who are as negligent as you say, but based on its extensive and proven track record one must conclude that RR's reputation for shit reliability is richly earned. Any other perspective is wishful thinking. That said, glad to hear their reliability is increasing.

I had a brand new BMW M135i for 6 months two years ago and the multimedia screens went blank on the motorway and the airbag light kept coming on for no reason. Also I work for a well known car insurance company and you'd be surprised how many times I have to adjust policies for people who had to take their audis back for issues that "couldn't be resolved". I truly believe people who own German cars are too embarrassed to declare the reality when they are unreliable and are happy to perpetuate the myth that they rarely break down.

I had a 2008 V70 D5 from 110k to 170k over ten years. It had one fault, the power steering pump which was a Ford part. Also being Ford, it was a cheap replacement. Eventually I replaced it with the V90 Cross Country which although it’s been 100% reliable, doesn’t give the hewn from granite feel of the old Volvos

I like the white L405 Matt. She’s a beauty, luxury wafter. 👌what a great car. I’ve never had any reliability issues with my rangies in UK 🇬🇧 or New Zealand 🇳🇿 just look after them and serviced them on date, using premium fuel and maintained warranty and I’ve had no issues. I don’t smoke and don’t drink. So rangies are my choice for pleasure and a lovely relaxing drive. I can’t defend the mpg. You know what you’re getting yourself in to. I’m not convinced about the L460 styling either. It’s not for me. Will get another L405 soon in UK 🇬🇧

I have an XC90 that’s coming up for 6 years old now and I’m looking at one of these to replace it. That said however, it’s been faultless throughout my ownership & the issues with LR products (I’ve owned one previously), plus the insurance, do put me off a bit…

When my massage seat failed, a local guy in a blacked out Range Rover offered me a real Thai lady to live in the car ready to give me a real massage any time i wanted - only 5 quid a day. 10 quid for a “happy ending” apparently, whatever that is. I told him I didn’t need it because I watch #highpeakautos videos and they always end happily for me.

I have Audi A5 and as you say never left me stranded but all the time something electrical fails. I had an extended warranty for the last 2 years and 70 000miles and it got more than 10k in repairs. Most recent bill I dodged was adblue fix which was 3500 new tank, pump and ECU. some other stuff that was breaking air recirculation flap motor(800), heated mirror(300), cracked front control arm bushes and lower control arm bush at 80k miles(1900), heated seat backrest(500). My point is, all luxury cars are the same and I dont know who is crazy enough to own these without warranty.

When i speak to most mechanics they say don't buy one crappy quality and can be expensive and turbo's have a tendency to go. Most cars today have all the cons more cons to go wrong, basic car less to go wrong. If anything goes wrong you can be without it for some time most psrts are dealership order

Matt, you should try a Volvo XC90 T8 Ultimate (bright). That’s the only car that costs less/the same that is almost up to the level of a Range Rover. I can say it. Love Range Rovers and my mother loves Volvos. Using both, for sure, better than a BMV, Audi or Mercedes.

Hi mat I completely agree with you for me there’s no other car that makes you feel special I have had my white L322 for ten years now which you have seen in passing,and it’s only let me down twice I followed your advice regarding servicing and gearbox,diff and transfer box fluid change and get it serviced ever year in February i thought I’d buy an L405 spent 3 weeks looking for the spec I wanted did a deal with mine tried to get it insured and was practically laughed at every time I try to get a quote so unfortunately the dealer decided to take his car back and I’m still with my L322 which I still love great to see yours out and about, hope you are well great video as always hope you had an amazing holiday best wishes ian.

Wouldn’t have anything else but Range Rover , my velar has never let me down once , off road it’s amazing , on road it’s very comfortable, yes your right , once you’ve owned a Range Rover nothing else seems to come close . The one thing I have learned is 95% of the haters and keyboard warriors have never even sat in a Range Rover never mind owned one .

Hi from Australia Matt. Totally agree with your video. Have had three(‘81 five door and’90 3.9 litre five door) last one was 2001 L322 one owner with full history and invoices. Gave me no problems for two years ( completed a 5500 kilometre trip to central Australia) before requiring a tailgate lock then a compressor for the air suspension. Front driveshaft failed soon after being sold after three years of ownership. Also despite a lot of criticism I found the bmw diesel was a good engine and never gave any trouble. Comfortable long distance car and can carry everything you need. Cheers. Alex.
