Where the hell have you been sir? It takes you guys entirely too long to produce videos. Whoever is financing you needs to fully commit behind your projects. You are an incredible talent with a very good staff behind you. You guys deserve to be fully funded where you are producing videos weekly. Keep up the great work and know that your fans will support you.

[@srk7555]

Thanks for your support and thank you for your patience!!! If you look at one of the comments above that is similar to yours...I explain why it takes soooo long to produce our work in my reply. Basically...I have a full time job and do this on the side. We film, edit and produce these videos on a serious budget. I don't have a "crew"...just me and my videographer. We work to put up one high quality video a month. I wish it were more... I love your enthusiasm for our work and appreciate the feedback from a true fan..:) Steve

[@earthlink1412]

great review as always, you should have your own tv show

[@ghanamafia7199]

Wow....you look like Michael Douglas...and that's a compliment.

[@srk7555]

Thanks for the compliment! I hear that from other viewers from time to time..:) Steve

[@JonMcG]

Hands down , still one of the best Car Reviewer's on KZbin . Awesome job Steve , well done mate .

[@srk7555]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate it "hands down or hands up"..:) Steve

[@JonMcG]

Lol Touche :)

[@rwandajc92]

That's a beast of an SUV!! Btw subscribed awesome review

[@batuhanbayazit]

Steve, you are the god of car reviews. No way I can’t be satisfied with one review per three months.

[@rosenthalstevek8869]

You are waaaaaaay tooooo kind! Thanks!!!!! I have to correct your math though. We've been putting out a video a month: Velar = Nov. / Volvo XC60 = Oct. / VW Tiguan = Sept. / Audi Q5 = August / Porsche Panamera = July / Honda CR-V = June etc. etc. Hope you subscribe and get an instant notification from KZbin when we post each video. Oh yeah... I almost forgot..we have the 2018 Genesis G80 Sport coming up in Dec..:) Steve

[@MaZEEZaM]

By far the best overview of this vehicle, none of this standing revving of the vehicle, who actually does this, other than the copycat 'in-depth reviewers'

[@shannis2011]

I'm sold... this is my next vehicle. I wanted the sport before seeing this but my mind has changed

[@thomastalks3841]

Aww man double check your thoughts as the Velar has been having issues! It is a lovely car but most issues on the Sport have been worked out but the Velar is still troublesome! Mine had issues hours after collection! (made a video of it on my channel) My friend had the 2016 Diesel Sport and upgraded to the Sport SVR summer 2018 and he has never had an issue with either (other than 15mpg from the SVR hehe)

[@veritasman]

Quality, fun and elegance ... That's the Rosenthal way's to Doing "things" !!!

[@urayamusan]

Hey Steve! I bought all my Land Rover and Range Rover cars at the Tysons dealership after seeing all your KZbin reviews back in the day. Now that I'm in NorCal i still managed to get the F-Pace after seeing your take on that model. Keep up the great work! P.S. my favorite one was your take on the Evoque a few years ago👌

[@rosenthalstevek8869]

Thanks so much! Wish you all the best on the West Coast..:) Steve

[@lilac819]

His reviews are so cool 😎

[@Tothefloor]

Welcome back Steve! Our favorite reviewer hands down. Funny as heck.

[@saadatshah7823]

Thats what i call a proper review. Thank youuu.

[@srk7555]

You're very welcome..:) Steve

[@thatsomefyi]

Steve, you were the guy who (inadvertently) introduced me to car reviews a looong time ago and every time I come back here they're still amazing! :D

[@rosenthalstevek8869]

I live to serve and am glad to be of service! Thanks..:) Steve

[@slyguyaction]

This guy is hilarious. Great entertainer. Thorough review too. Keep up the good work!

[@srk7555]

Thanks for your kind compliments! Hope you subscribe and share our videos...:) Steve

[@slyguyaction]

Steve Kerndt You’re welcome. I subscribe and share all of them.

[@alexthegreat6421]

Probably the best review ever of a car! Great job!!

[@srk7555]

Thanks..:) Steve

[@pac7025]

You make great videos. Glad to see you're back in action.

[@pulkitsharma6648]

This guy and Mat from CarWow needs to take over Top gear!

[@Haiman9]

Steve always positive and smooth. Keep it up.

[@jesusmarywillsaveyou]

wow, that review did not feel like 17min. kept me drawn in the whole time. thought it was like 8 min long. nice stuff Rosenthal auto

[@thomastalks3841]

He knows his stuff! I agree!

[@sosiimartinez2268]

You did a wonderful job brother thank you.. now I'm leaning more towards this baby instead of the sport.. because financially I can't have the big daddy yet ..

[@Keitho1967]

Once again Rosenthal Automotive shows us why they are amongst the best in their reviews. Thanks for such a quality production and just the right amount of detail for how one would use a vehicle everyday. One thing I would have liked was more detail around those complex electronic command system in the dash. Black plastic gets tons of fingerprints and seems very distracting.

[@footballgeorgiebest]

My favourite reviewer on youtube

[@guilhermechecchia6914]

You are back!!!

[@Fish-pi6my]

Ah man. You ripped the drawing. Could of sent it to me. Lol

[@thomastalks3841]

Ikr what a beauty of a drawing

[@rocky7891]

You are like vsauce of car reviews! Long and engaging videos!

[@srk7555]

Thanks! Glad you enjoy our work..:) Steve

[@danielbrowne5737]

Great Review. This guy is very charismatic, likable and enjoyable to watch.

[@srk7555]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate the feedback and kind words..:) Steve

[@MavManize]

Liked this video before starting

[@davidwhitehouse3243]

great review, nice to see you say jaguar the british way which is the correct way ov course, that starter button will get more fiddly with RHD as here in uk we will have to use or left hand to start & stop the car, iv always hated left hand starting of cars here, brings back memories of my old rover SD1(1983), audi Q7 (2008), also 2003 range rover vogue which was actually down by the gear selector stick strange but not as strange as my old saab which was between the seats where handbrake was, at least the RR sport starter is flat on dash so very easy to get too.

[@tyjones6268]

Wonderful review as usual! 👌

[@rosenthalstevek8869]

Thanks..:) Steve

[@SirPrem8]

Great video, voice, understanding the art of the car and intro. Awesome.

[@rosenthalstevek8869]

I appreciate your kind words..:) Steve

[@SirPrem8]

Rosenthal Steve 🙇‍♂️ how would you rate the massager for the car

[@srk7555]

I didn't get to use it for very long but I thoroughly enjoyed the time I had it on. It would definitely be an option I'd go for..:) Steve

[@sulebello6285]

Lovely Range Rover you are okay keep it up you are the best of all

[@voguelyn4060]

My dream car ❤️

[@prostreetcamaro]

And my jeep does 0-60 in 4.1 and its naturally aspirated lol. Do love the body style and interior though. Wife is buying a Velar this week.

[@CS-yc6qp]

What a way to treat souvenirs

[@karl-rickbizoza2029]

I love this guy's reviews

[@rosenthalstevek8869]

[@srk7555]

Thanks!!! You're Awesome As Well..:) Steve

[@Bruningable]

Great car. And I like your shoes Sir. Really.

[@shawnl7923]

Very informative, well reviewed.

[@vtm89]

Although I do like Rosenthal's reviews, and follow the channel for a few years now, I can't much rely on their opinion. No negative sides!? Like cheap plastic they used on doors and lower parts in general (on a 70k car), touch screen combination which is nice to look but not very practical, cramped rear seats. How does car handle comfort on 20" rims? Noise levels. Stuff like that... Good review contains a cons too. There's no flawless car. As always, fun to watch. :) Cheers.

[@rosenthalstevek8869]

Hey Hey Hey... That is Very Expensive Cheap Plastic used on this vehicle's doors and lower parts!!!! It's a Land Rover for Pete's sake... It handles just as well on 20" rims as it does on 19.75" rims... It is quite quiet...especially with the engine turned off and not driving anywhere. I did mention "a flaw"...the ignition button position!!! So there...I accept your apology!!!! Cheers to ya to and thanks for following our channel..:) Steve

[@12MadLoX12]

Gvozden check the guys that use to be on top gear lol

[@mashotoshaku]

I think a part of me died when he tore that sketch, geez.

[@srk7555]

Ha...! You didn't watch the video all the way through to the end did you..:) Steve

[@cristian8471]

Great video, man! Very explicit. Maybe you could show if it has nighvision and 3rd seat row, ISO fix for kids.

[@King-pb3yk]

Amazing video... Thanks... What is the colour of the velar you are reviewing? Thank you

[@Bigshiesty1]

I thought the thumbnail was you taking a picture with a Range Rover broken down on the side of the road

[@derrickzalo9749]

I love this car

[@eduardohuamani6955]

[@utleychase7]

[@jasjotdhanjal5537]

[@kevinmccarthy7709]

[@501pj]

Did I miss the comments about road noise and ride quality?

[@peter300pete]

great production,..oh....not the vehicle, the video. of course velar is a good car...how many decibels is the interior at 50 mph? please answer.I need this info. thanks. btw I subscribed

[@rosenthalstevek8869]

Glad you subscribed. Thanks! Not sure about the decibels though. If I find out I'll let ya know..:) Steve

[@peter300pete]

Rosenthal Steve K thank you so much

[@fmkl4492]

Hihii... you are so funny.. i like ur style 😊😊

[@MrDucatiPenigaleV4s]

In icy weather, the door handles will freeze in.

[@lr._ry]

@10:28 since 95 range rovers had powered headrests in the P38

[@akshaykohli9141]

JLR is best. ❤️

[@sunsetrider3173]

Looks like this was shot over the summer and uploading in late November. I'd say it takes a while for him to edit these.

[@srk7555]

We actually shot the Velar and the Hyundai G80 Sport in October. We've had a really warm Autumn season this year, here in Virginia, and it just started to get cold this week! That's why it looks like summer in the video. So the Velar is our November video and the G80 will be up in December. It takes about a month to finish each video. We also shot the VW Atlas and Honda Accord in November...which will be coming in January and Febuary. So we're pretty busy each month with filming and editing. Plus...this isn't my full time job. This is just something I do "on the side" at work. I wish I had a full crew and big budget...but it's just me and my videographer. I hope you enjoy our work and appreciate your patience..:) Steve

[@JackLiu95]

How can you get in if the battery dies?

[@mayanknpatel9813]

jaguar belongs to them ??

[@thomastalks3841]

Tata (Indian company) owns both Jaguar & Land Rover :)

[@jondishmonmusicandstuff2753]

All of these high price cars whether it's the F Pace jaguar or the BMW X6 or the Mercedes Coupe and even this one they don't have adequate back seat space for anybody over 6ft I guess those days are over?

[@tommytigerpants]

jon dishmon XC60 does, for what it’s worth. I’m 6’4

[@sosiimartinez2268]

The big daddy does

[@SnarkierThan-U-R]

Perfect vehicle that can be modified military style just ion time for the zombie Apocalypse

[@donovanreimer2324]

This guy couldn’t possibly squeeze in even one more cliché.

[@frozencarguy6274]

It'll take sales away from big brother.

[@marsdahustler]

2017/18 and Ford or Tata didn't put a dual clutch lol + smh

[@cristian8471]

Wow....those shoes still in production? -)))))

[@rosenthalstevek8869]

Yuppers..:) Steve

[@alexporsche7805]

11:10 Not Velar doors.

[@Vision42_]

I DIDN'T THINK SO!!!!!😂😂😂😂

[@n.ull.]

3:37 ah yes beautiful and fragile condom rubber latex air pillows love it when they break and give you a surprise like my last son

[@edking2006]

More like a commercial than an objective review. Was there anything about the car you DIDN'T like? Oh, yeah, the placement of the STOP/START button. Beautiful truck though.

[@patrick5083090833]

Don’t want to be rude, but I personally sell cars and I love your reviews and appreciate all your hard work, but my man you need to get some better fitting clothes. Get some slim fit pants that don’t bag at the bottom, get some slim fit polo’s or tops. And wear a undershirt. You do this, it’ll make a world of difference!

[@rosenthalstevek8869]

Say hey... Thanks for the feedback! I appreciate your input. You're probably right that my style isn't quite "up to date". I have lost a few pounds lately so the shirts probably do look a bit slack... I'll take your advice into consideration for my future clothing purchases. Unfortunately we have three videos already in post editing so you won't see a change until a bit later in 2018...maybe/hopefully March or April...but I'll do what I can..:) Steve

[@nykunthea1900]

$?

[@anyvideoanywhere]

realistically 60-100K new, used ones can be had now approaching 45K-60K

[@tonyquaz6382]

However. I'm struggling between the P250 and P380.. whats your take?

[@tyjones6268]

TonyQuaz P380!

[@tonyquaz6382]

Thanks alot Tyrone! Have you driven it yourself and what do you think? The interior is a killer.. and the rear is so beautiful..lol

[@sosiimartinez2268]

Me too... But im going g to check some out soon

[@troysmith9007]

too bad these things break down the road smh

[@bastillas.9663]

This is a typical paid review, all praises and bs. No actual real world annoyances which there are a couple.

[@RAJohnson713]

Isnt this just a Range Rover Sport??

[@imkirbo3094]

No, this is cheaper and not as nice as the Range Rover Sport.

[@jandersen6802]

This is just an ad!

[@jasjotdhanjal5537]

Awww jealous?

[@TheLastOilMan]

Funny a Yaz No reviewing a car, What happened to the USA garbage motor industry guys ?
