[@haanjamiis]

My 2011 D4 with 260k km, still no squeaks or rattles. Also leather on seats still in very good condition. Still very comfy ride. Most likely RR's have even better ride and quality. People are afraid of the air-suspension, but It is very comfortable and practical. Also it's pretty robust and doesn't break that easy. Still have original struts. Only thing I did - replaced air compressor @ ~ 210k km.

[@spartanchirho]

You guys are a great team so keep doing the duo reviews. 👏 As a roverphile, I just wish they would make a rim that could accept a true off road tire for those of us that would really use the damn tech. Everyone knows the tires will max out the tech. Drives me crazy.

I find it annoying that Range Rovers do have real centre and rear diff locks, but you can't manually lock them yourself. Their off-road worthiness is a mixed bag. They definitely have the equipment and software for impressive off-roading, but like so many modern SUV,s it's let down by being on street tyres and having a big fat body with bad off road angles.

[@rl9810]

You can lock them yourself. See 9:15

[@mikeamizzle]

On the New Defender, at least with the off road package, it does have a configurable mode in the Terrain Response where you can select to lock the differentials vs having them be automatic. Edit: yeah it’s in the video lol..

Which exact trim was this Range Rover? Was it the P400 "SE" that is being offered in the US? And is it the standard or long wheelbase? I ask because I saw the center and rear diff on the screen. I didn't think the rear diff was offered for the 6-cylinder SE model. I also saw the customizable programs on the screen. That's not offered on the standard or the long wheelbase 6-cylinder SE model. Was this a European version they loaned out? I'm currently in the process of ordering the 6 cylinder SE model but there just isn't the option to select the customizable off-road programs or anything related to an "off-road" pack that would include the rear-diff. I'm pretty certain you were testing a demo version that's not offered here in the States.

Most of these offroad features will be used by the second or third owner. People who go off road usually get a used SUV or pickup truck, something that won't break down on the trail. Or they'll just get a base model Defender 90 or Jeep Wrangler.

[@AHungryHunky]

I suppose that depends on the income of the owner. If it's an owner that can "afford" it then yeah, probably never going to be used. If it's an owner who's income is in Rolls or Bentley territory and this is a second or third car, then yeah probably going to use at least some of them.

Anyone who wanted to use this for serious offroading would need to immediately replace the wheels and tires. They just figure the first owner - or three - won't actually use it that way due to the cost of the vehicle. I off-road regularly with my Jeep Grand Cherokee in Arizona - I don't see the point in buying an off-road capable SUV to not actually use it for that.
