Really like these RR, they look great in sliver paint. Thanks for this look at this popular model here in Oz even with some build quality and reliability issues.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

I agree my friend it certainly has a great presence

[@RossEnzo]

The GLE with the correct option's is such a great choice, even with the four-banger for around $65k you're getting a great SUV.

[@philnleblanc6664]

Save your money and stick with the 4 cylinder. It’s an SUV not a sports car. I currently own a Velar and it does the job it’s intended to do. Once the weekend comes, that’s when I jump into my 911.

[@colinamwilliamson]

Just bought a Velar. Love it. The avionics are fantastic. Had it for a week and I can use all of it. You need to become an older geek.

Interior, exterior all beautiful. Size is good too, not offensively large. This ticks all the boxes. However, if I'm gonna be spending that much money I want a far more comfy ride. They need to improve the ride quality. And the reliability. I've heard it's one big nightmare, sadly.

[@djordjedjolic7641]

About controls at displays, not intuitive. It is true, but how long you have driven Velar? Or any other Land Rover? Learning curve is steep, but once you get hold of it, it is easy to use as in any other car. I agree that when you sit in Audi, or Merc, you feel like you have been driving it for years, but on other hand, Land Rover is different company and in some way it's OK too have their own logic in screen/button layout. Again, agreed that controls are somewhat unintuitive, but I don't think they are that bad.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Over 1 week which is more than most journalists that test cars for 7 days from the manufacturer. Getting used to something is fine, what I'm referring to here is the design of the infotainment from the factory, I shouldn't have to get used to it, it should just come naturally you see what I'm saying. Check out Audis dual screen system at a dealership you'll know what I mean

[@djordjedjolic7641]

@@MeynMotorGroup I disagree that you shouldn't have to get used to anything, since using car controls isn't something that we are born with, but we learn over time. For example I have driven german made cars for most of my life, but then I tried Jeep GC and had some trouble getting used to it, but after few weeks everything was cool and U connect fitted like a glove. But when I got VW Touareg again there was some period to get used to. So, I am not saying that controls are intuitive or logical, but that they just need some time to.get used to. On the other hand, you have to take in to account that these screens follow the logic and plan of controls from generation or two older Range Rovers, so for Land Rover drivers it isn't so hard to get used. Agreed that Audis infotainment and dual screen solution are probably best in the biz right now, but RR ain't so far behind.

Hey, I’ve been loving your car reviews, as I’m looking to purchase a new vehicle. Right now I’m thinking of going with a Lexus 450h. Anyways I don’t know if you’ve thought of it before (or if you’ve done it lol), but I’d love to hear your thoughts on what’s the best bang for your buck cars to buy right now. I feel people can trust you because you are one of the few that give honest reviews, the good, the bad and the ugly. Anyways thanks again for all the videos been binging them lately!

[@MeynMotorGroup]

I actually did do a video like that in the past, check out my vid on the best cars for students it's the one with the Bugatti thumbnail.

[@richardh3587]

This might be controversial to say but I think most velar buyers might be better served by the Jaguar Ipace. Factoring in the tax credit, it’s around 70k fully loaded. It has similar interior space but is smaller on the outside and you have the convenience of charging at home (I suspect most velar buyers have a home garage). Way better performance than the velar too. Similar build quality, comfort and materials too along with “fashion forward” looks. Anyway just a thought.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

So iPace looks great I want to really like Jaguars because they do drive good but unfortunately their interiors are almost never as nice or well built as the Range Rovers. But I guess in this segment brands and badges matter more than quality and you're right Ipace offers more for less and I think the Jaguar brand still exudes prestige and an exotic vibe to satisfy the 1%...I think

[@richardh3587]

@@MeynMotorGroup yeah I was pleasantly surprised by the ipace interior. It’s very well built..maybe cause it’s made in Austria. Much better than other Jags. But yeah I think most velar buyers really want that range rover logo across the front…

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Oh that's good to hear because I really wanted to like the ipace glad you confirmed the interior quality is good. But yes, most want Rover plastered on the front and back

[@richardh3587]

@@MeynMotorGroup even more surprising is that it was better built than the taycan I test drove a few months ago as well (yes I like asking for test drives of cars I can’t afford). A few squeaky plastics on the taycan (including the steering wheel trim) as well as some rattles. Kinda disappointing - almost what I’d have assumed the Jag woukd be like.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

[@tvracingparts]

This is a pretty good fair review. It really is a status symbol nothing else. I’d rather get a bmw or Mercedez

[@MeynMotorGroup]

New GLE drove and looked great with a lot more space than this Rover, I would pick that personally.

[@philnleblanc6664]

Yea, because those aren’t status symbols either. 😂

[@victors8891]

hey brother looking into getting the 2022 velar 2.0 litre inline 4 on lease for 30 months at 5.99% APR $932 monthly payments , do you think its worth it ?

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Yea that's the problem with Range Rover leases as well as Mercedes, the interest or the money factor is very high on them. That's about what the payment would be hopefully with 0 down. I would only pay that for the 6 cylinder tho. Check out leasehackr and see what others are currently paying. But RR leases are genuinely more expensive

[@MeynMotorGroup]

May also want to look into financing, interest might only be like 2%

[@victors8891]

​@@MeynMotorGroup thanks for the reply , yes its $932 5.99% APR with $0 down im not intrested in finance as i dont want to own the car just lease and then return and get a new one after , but i mean $932 a month is high but its the cheapest rate i could find , would you personally do it yourself ?

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Well I don't like the car to the point where I would do it but if you were someone that had to have a Range Rover product then yes it's simply the cost to have one. But you can just finance it and dump it after 3 years it's also the same thing payments will be a little high on a 70k car would have to maybe do 72 months.

[@victors8891]

@@MeynMotorGroup agree it just the cost of having luxury i guess , i like the car still havent driven it but i finally want to get my first luxury car and i like the way it looks and the interior and i all my family likes it , moreover its between this , 2022 5 series or 2022 E400 plus i think when i lease its under warranty so if anything goes wrong the dealer will service it for the 30 month lease

[@philnleblanc6664]

If you do the recommended maintenance just about every car will last, but people get lazy and/or can barely afford these cars in the first place. They let the little issues compile up until it turns into a catastrophic issue. Then you have people saying that this car or that isn’t reliable but the truth is, it wasn’t maintained very well or at all.

[@Excalabur50]

Yet another overpriced shitbox, a lady over here bought a Rangie, and it kept breaking down all the time, it spent more time in the repair shop than on the road, she took them to court and won, they refunded her 150,000+ and court costs. Avoid Landrover like the plague!

[@MeynMotorGroup]

The thing with a majority of these luxury cars is, the average person thinks these sorts of Euro cars are significantly superior than your everyday Hondas or Mazdas when that's not really the case. For the most part, until you are paying over $80k for a lot of these cars, you can get something like a Kia Telluride that will do the job just as well if not better in some cases. Some of the few cars that I have noticed to be truly transcendent and superior to "regular" cars are E class level Benzes and up, Porsche products, couple Lexus cars, couple Audis, and BMW sedans are decent, but the list kind of ends there.

Yes exactly following the maintenance schedule perfectly, avoiding water in the interior from cups or other sources from entering electrical areas, avoiding cars with accidents, using PREMIUM fuel when the manufacturer clearly recommends it. So many people want reliable cars but never follow the instructions given to them and wonder why their car is unreliable when they just neglect them.
