Range Rover Velar SUV in-depth review - Carbuyer

[@thebismarkandthehood]

Interesting that on every review people complain about the reviewer yet still return each time.

[@tlf361]

+BB-8, Nah, we just honestly do not like his reviewing style. And by "we", I mean the majority it seems. Some people are just not likeable.

[@alanwayte432]

Timothy L lol Timbo you hit the nail on the head again with your insight.....your just not likeable Tim Tim

[@aliyldz9770]

It is called love-hate relationship. They can't do without him

[@Kingdonnerkebab]

Enjoyed the review as usual James, ignore the haters, its a sad state of affairs when you get such abuse for a voice or seating position in a car

[@vx4716]

I have to admit i didnt like James at the start when he done his Ford Mustang review but now i have learned to like him in fact i would say he is one of the best car reviewers out there!

[@petergeorge9004]

VX 471 not as good as Matt though

[@oscardavies1591]

This guy gets too much hate. Granted he's not as good as Matt was, but we don't need to go on a witch hunt.

[@joewalsh119]

Oscar Davies j

[@petergeorge9004]

Yeah but he said ‘cream of the range

[@long_view]

Actually I think they are both excellent, but just have different styles (the presenters!).

[@JonMcG]

Have to admit , when he first started talking I thought "Oh Hell No " . However , Glad i didnt click out as this turned out to be a great review , well done .

[@samsongerald7643]

John jsmit 😂😂😂

[@tasosss]

1 in 5 customers report a fault on their cars, thats bad

[@tasosss]

😂😂

[@JakeRoot]

And he followed that section up with "there is one big negative thing about the Velar" ... uhh, no, that would be two big negatives. Price, and reliability.

[@nickjamo2383]

My wife has a 2017 Evoque , been back in to service department 5 times since purchase , lots of different problems , selling it soon

[@davesunderland1026]

Tasos Stavrou YOU are looking at the wrong way, 4 out of 5 owners have no issues or report faults, now thats impressive

[@tasosss]

Dave Knowsitallandseesitall I hope you are joking

[@ShaneRG]

I can't understand the hate - I love James' reviews. Keep it up! That Velar is stunning, but they played games with the pricing, making them too expensive in a desirable spec.

[@MrTrull1]

So many unnecessary comments about the presenter. Credit to James for putting up with/ignoring such foul and personal comments. He's a better man than any of them could hope to be. Funny how so many of them can't seem to stay away from him...

[@raghuramgaddam2956]

Why do companies give such a huge boot and compromise on the space for the rear seats? I just don't get it .

[@warakanda7356]

A straight forward, very short, clear, simple and no nonsense presentation. Really really awesome. Keep it up. Tq bro...

[@gbej1]

I never knew door handles in a car were such a problem. Thanks Land Rover for solving a problem that never existed

[@GroentjeK7]

carwow > carbuyer

[@armands3153]

Saw one today in the supermarket (as a showcase car). Looks so good. Seemed a lot smaller, than I thought it will be.

[@kamomhlari3121]

Why does everyone hate the dude?

[@jordonwatson3212]

Kamo Mhlari He's not Mat. We only like Mat

[@masterroshi8452]

Kamo Mhlari because he's gay look how he sits

[@jordonwatson3212]

Mxseria bitch if i say his name is Matt it's fucking Matt and for that now your fucking name is Bill...good looking out though Bill 👍thanks for the correction

[@tjfSIM]

@Master Roshi - You hate someone because they're gay?

[@masterroshi8452]

tjf4375 it's wrong to hate I just criticise

[@kellyconway449]

Don't judge the presenter, judge the review itself. In my mind, the review provided all the necessary information for a potential buyer to make an informative decision. However, I did notice the reviewer did seem to cross the white lines a few times, whilst driving - maybe different rules in the U.K. compared to Australia?

[@MrTrull1]

Kelly Conway You are only not allowed to cross the line if it's a continuous one with no breaks (usually on wider, faster ones where there are hazards, to stop people overtaking). He's only on small country roads, where he can see well ahead, and the centre line has breaks in it.

[@vikingraiders4138]

Kelly Conway Never mind the presenter the car is absolutely pointless, That's exactly what's pissing me off.

[@jpnyc66]

One of most informative, better edited Velar reviews. Nice reviewer too, very engaging

[@WithExtraToast]

I got uncomfortable when he said Big Daddy

[@crossroads670]

😂😂😂

[@mohishnaeck2795]

Can you make a head to head between the velar and the Jag f pace pls?

[@chandlerdordoy4802]

I have to admit despite its few shortcomings it's the best looking Range Rover I've seen yet!

[@AutoshineTinting]

Such a beautiful car

[@blitzchaserjzx100]

One thing is sure. It will be as reliable as the weather..

[@EV-Diary]

I don’t know why everyone complains about the reviewer he is good. He may not be the same as Matt but that’s good. They both provide different types of reviews

[@dan_mori]

Can't wait to see carwow's review on that! I came here because I really wanted to know more about the Velar. C'mon Mat, get this car!

[@MaZEEZaM]

Great review 🐨 Sounds like the Full size Range Rover is a much better buy.

[@Harvv77]

Great looking car, probably out of my price range though. Good review.

[@Dave-dj4ee]

Your reviews are great. Do not pay attention to all the hate comments...

[@finleypdoherty]

It isn’t the remote for the infotainment system, it’s for the rear seat entertainment

[@harrytheweasley6247]

Great review!

[@tengchu6789]

nice reivew

[@sweetfreedomGB]

Good car reviewer, left of field presentation which I find refreshing.

[@atthelord]

I'd say this is a better buy than the F pace. Personally, it feels more luxurious, and arguably even looks better. As a daily driver, this seems like such an attractive car, even though it is quite expensive!

[@kingsley15]

I can't even find any hate comments, just people taking about people leaving hate comments lol looks like they've been weeded out... But that's what you want though. Good review!

[@passwifjreiguru5325]

Huge ass land rover with a 4 cylinder? Really? What the actual fuck

[@Inspire6]

Why doesn't anyone ever review the Velar without the r dynamic design

[@andreadevetak4325]

Engine choices are lavish: 4-cylinder D180 and D240 diesels,a 3-litre V6 D300,4 cylinders P250 and P300 petrols, and of course a 3litre supercharged V6 petrol P380 monk!

[@Ambienfinity]

Great review James, but not my kind of vehicle.

[@chriselse515]

Great car looks stunning and why so much hate on land rover yes it's Indian owned but the design and development and manufacturing is all done in the UK and keeping alot of people in work not just JLR but the supply network to alot of people forgot this is still a British designed car made in Britain oh and for those complaining about lack of defender new one out in 2019

[@markgeller5900]

Just sat in one yesterday. I am 6 foot and the rear seating, at 75,000 dollars for a near 190 inch car, was the most disappointing experience I can remember. Executed nicely and a lovely car, I can't see why this is nearly 10 inches longer than a Disco Sport and actually has less leg room and feels tighter all over, except the boot, but who is sitting in there?.

[@tristanacosta407]

Mostly complaints from a car owner is sometimes a reflection of them being not a good owner or can't be able to maintain a car right. Cars are sensitive no matter how expensive or a mass produced one will have a problem if no one knows how to take care of them. I quiet love this, in fact, all the Range Rover lineup especially the full size but I can't wait for the next Defender hoping to have the steel chassis still.

[@FormulaWhine]

Who designed those rear charging points hidden inside the armrest drop down? Daft place to put them - totally unusable if you have somebody sitting in the middle or do not want or cannot put the armrest down for some reason!

[@diogovenes4371]

honestly, i do miss mat. however this batchelor bloke does a pretty decent job at this car reviewing thing

[@samuelfitzpatrick9739]

Can I line it up next to a sport to compare the sizes to give us a better idea

[@DavidOliveiraYadin]

I was expecting something better. I was kinda disappointed when he showed the interior wasn't the same quality as the Large Range Rover. Not that it makes a bad car, or even close. But I was under the impression this car would be in a upper scale. Same as the Range Rover. Nice review and a beautiful car, though.

[@SimranSingh-bw5zh]

The car looks amazing

[@robertking9582]

Great review

[@meezen84]

@4:25 there is one bad thing about the boot. There is a step down from the boot floor on to the back seats, which means pushing items forward is a little bit harder.... mmm well you really showed how hard it could be to push the bag in!!!!! In contrary this position makes it a bit more difficult to pull out items from the boot

[@cristiandemirel1918]

It's a F-pace with another badge!

[@Warraich132]

Who is your wardrobe manager? Smurfs.....

[@athyissekya2072]

i feel so sorry for you James do not worry pay no attention to what the rude comments say

[@007silentslayer]

Boot has a step down when seats are folded down because it has a full size spare. If (like most) select to have a normal spare or none at all, the step disappears. Looking forward to the carwow review....

[@randyrandier2664]

The top screen tilts forward when ignition is switched on - judging by the marginal slim angle of the tilt, why was it not made with the correct angle in a fixed position in the 1st place? Adding extra motor for this tilt action just means more things to go wrong and expensive to repair, considering the 3rd from bottom manufacturers position for developing faults in the JD Power results, and the various comments in the owners' forum. 1 touch screen is bad enough by now 2....expect a lot more crashes involving Velar drivers from having to look down from the road.

[@trusonaia193]

My parents are getting one on Friday!!

[@user-gj5yy6rk2q]

how is it?

[@kewalapatsathyam7418]

my dream car 4 always

[@marinoint]

So the rear seats can't slide rearward?! What a disappointment!

[@ericr5561]

This still looks SO CLOSE to the RR SPORT that it really isn't even worth purchasing this for significantly more.

[@LordLauderdale]

Nice review as always yet one small niggle: in my view even the base car is well equipped as you pointed out at the beginning.

[@yudhabagaskara98]

October cannot come soon enough for mat to review this unique range rover

[@mattrussell250]

Would still have a VW Touareg over this. Nicely understated, great to waft about in and about £30k less in fully loaded guise.

[@jimmymyers8753]

But is it for Straight men too ??

[@WhoDatDiggityDog]

No sunroof?

[@Fahadaldassan]

What is the exterior color?, Is it Byron Blue?

[@donkeydicked]

A large SUV ?? You must be kidding it's tiny inside ... and just wait till it breaks! which it will . Appalling value . Good video 😊

[@jrushen4235]

Don't take any notice of the negative views from the chavs, excellent review James.

[@scottishfanta]

Like to see how all that tech holds up in 10 or 20 years! or even shorter given how short the life of smartphones are!

[@Fahadaldassan]

What color is this.

[@MrPeterthepilot]

Interesting. I seem to be one of the four out of five RR owners who have never had anything go wrong with my car, and I've had three of one sort or another.

[@cleric4265]

That dark blue interior is horrendous

[@ethiansjh]

I like the way he speaks

[@Memories-_]

Navy blue leather, oh my god it reminds me of the 2002 Range Rover L322's. Looks okay when its new but give it a couple years and it will look disgusting and will cause bad resale values

[@younesnorddine1312]

Is there a velar hybrid ?

[@militanthd6484]

Fix that reliability rating land rover, for that asking price is too large for a level car to have short run problems

[@thomascanedi3690]

Really, diesel consumption is between 44-52mpg ??

[@curtisparidisshow]

I went for a test drive with my dad in this, and the back seats are extremely clastrophobic

[@vladmihai_]

It s the only range rover that looks good

[@IGOTDIBS]

I thought this was carwow....

[@yugtiwari0024]

They still think its British😂😂😂😂

[@aidan7936]

Car buyer used to have more subscribers than carwow, seen as though it’s been around for a lot longer, then Matt went to carwow and started reviewing and everyone has gone to carwow. I personally prefer carwow’s reviewing style and it seems more bubbly and there’s always an Easter egg in carwow videos, that’s what this channel lacks.

[@galloping5273]

All that tech inside would worry me in a JLR product...lovely looking car but rapidly becoming the "pre 2015 Peugeot"of electronics reliability world...

[@toms3878]

you just complained about a luxury SUV for 8 minutes. There are reasons to not buy the Sport besides its price tag. realize that.

[@jamiek9453]

Why not test a pink Fiat 500 James?

[@hyylo]

nice looking car but if you take into consideration the maintenance costs, deprecciation, the cost of fuel, the Tesla Model S is a better car. Owning a Model X is cheaper over 3 year period.

[@boldmousedj3211]

Car buyer vs car wow

[@toptobottom247]

Shame on you for reviewing a diesel and shame on Range Rover for still producing diesel instead of just going with a hybrid or all electric.

[@Kxider]

Damn, thought this was carwow

[@ewan5536]

He looks like Mika lmfao

[@andrewrobotbuilder]

For a Range Rover, it really doesn't have anything that sticks out and screams quality or luxury. Feels weird.

[@domtorque]

RIP Matt and Rebecca

[@nicolastailleur5467]

Mmm i don't know about the style... still prefer the evoque.

[@johncameron4321]

Think I will wait for the electric version, and a lottery win.

[@carlk3989]

Spoiler alert: It is going to be notoriously unreliable as usual:)

[@j.youman6978]

The base model is $40k pounds and the '1st Edition' is $84k pounds. ..... ok .. LOL

[@danI43541]

Well isn't it kinda stupid that the F Pace and Velar have a 180hp and 240hp diesel... the 180 is rather slow but the 240 is (of course) quite expensive.. a 200hp one would be perfect

[@iam_mono1892]

Hello Sailor!! 😉😉

[@Cardudes]

84K? yep I think I'd get a Lexus GX/Toyota Prado

[@gdwlaw5549]

why not call it an estate?

[@andreadevetak4325]

Why?

[@robertruehlmann3667]

Whatsapp bothers me, is that he is it driving in his lane. Please drive normal. It is getting more n more common that people drive outside their lane and provoke accidents!

[@vikassood6306]

exterior too good , but plastics and leather used inside lack quality.

[@sakethmohan7455]

Thank you Tata motors!

[@srinivaspanuganti5609]

Cooool review 🤗🤗🤗🤗
