"Worth the money over the standard Range Rover. The standard one give problems after problems over the air suspension ride. Always in the shop. Sport is the one to buy."

"After selecting the RR Sport over the Cayenne, the Porsche dealer suggested I wouldn't be happy. He's right -- I'm thrilled. The RR Sport has handled an atypical New England winter in fine form, displaying sure-footed handling on the rare icy/snow days and noteworthy agility (despite its size) when conditions allow. Creature comforts are first class; the vehicle excels at long jaunts, and is an eager companion for quick runs. Annoyances are minor: mpg, tricky gas cap and a heater that lags in warming the cabin. Happy? No. Thrilled? Absolutely."

"Overall, all I wanted in a car. Interior is well laid out and very comfortable even on long trips. Exterior gets lots of looks, even still from me. Of course, poor gas mileage is a downer especially when you have to use 91 octane or better. The satellite radio display is lacking in viewable information on the primary screen, and CD player cannot read CD/MP3 content information but that is not a huge deal. Only real problem so far is a slight rattle in the sunroof which I plan to have fixed at the next service interval. Three months later and still no regrets."

"I've owned my Sport Supercharged for 14 months now. Absolutely the worst vehicle I have even driven regardless of price. I have had so many problems, that the vehicle now qualifies as a lemon...and Range Rover service and response the issues has been appaling (again for a vehicle at any price). Even without my many mechanical problems, this SUV is a heavy beast and not nearly as fast as you would think. The Supercharged makes it just acceptable for acceleration and speed. Gas milage is well under 10 in the city. Features inside are hard to use or so complicated you'll just opt not to bother. It looks great...so it's tempting to discard all you hear about Land Rover and poor reliability....but don't be sucked in. People will tell you how good your car looks, but it will likely be on the back of a tow truck. Sad sad, bad car."

"I have had the RR Sport since January, 2006, and love it. Stylish inside and out, it is a real head turner. I am not using it for hauling boats or kids, so the smaller size of the back seat compared to the LR3 or the Range Rover is not an issue. Only complaint is that I did not buy the Supercharged model. This one will get out of its own way, but compared to the speed of my E500 - I would like a little more power."

"Acceleration is slow for 390 HP and breaks are not responsive enough. Overall it?s a nice SUV. Should?ve been priced more competitive."
