2008 Land Rover LR2 consumer reviews

Got my LR2 with 90,000 miles for $7300 in Washington state , reason I got a decent deal was because the car lot had to replace the rear differential because the gears were grinding , they put a used one from pull and save in it and it sounded fine for a week or so and then the new one started making the same noise , so I get online and start doing some research and I find out thus is a super common problem in specifically the 2008 model, I must have read over 300 reviews on a forum about this problem, for whatever reason Land Rover never recalled the issue, so I ended up getting a brand new rear differential that has been redesigned and upgraded, cost me $1200 and the car lot put it in for me , works amazing now, only other issue I had was the in dash 6 disk cd changer , it would stop playing cds after about 50 seconds , so I ordered a remanufactured cd changer and had the car lot install it and it works great now ($200) SO ! All in all I'm happy with the overall outcome and the LR2 is such a nice vehicle to drive, handles like a dream , goes over bumps and pot holes amazing ! Gas mileage could be better , but all time all wheel drive is what it is , super excited to see how this thing does in the snow !!

This car is a very safe car to drive, you feel comfortable sitting up a little bit higher than the typical sedan. Has good leg room.

I bought this vehicle with 108k in April 2016. Three years later, I can truly say I am in love! When I first got it , the pulley had to be replaced bc it broke down on the highway but I was able to drive it to the dealership. After that just brakes, regular oil changes and replaced the battery last year. It takes Regular gas with no problem and it is a daily commute vehicle. I have the cold package with xenon lights. My only complaint is the key fobs are expensive to replace $400 a pop. It currently has 156k and I use synthetic oil only as the previous owner did. I am the second owner. Do your research . I do not regret this purchase at all. It can go any where especially here in the North East.

This vehicle is everything that we hoped it would be. Used but taken excellent care of and it shows! I?d recommend the LR2 to anyone considering a Land Rover!

Had this car in Orange with black leather. It was beautiful and comfortable. We had trouble with it from the start. The car would hesitate (almost to the point of stalling) and then suddenly lurch forward. It was at the dealer all the time as they tried to fix it. They ?reset? the computer numerous times. 6 months into owning it, we were done. This car was unreliable and dangerous to drive. Land Rover!s customer service was non-existent. HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT!!!

LOVE THIS SUV!! IT'S BEEN SO RELIABLE AND SUCH A NICE RIDE AND LOOKS SOO NICE AS WELL! ALEAYS GETS ATTENTION EVERYWHERE I GO !

GREAT VEHICLE, VERY RELAIBLE! IF YOU HAVE A FAMILY THIS IS ALSO A GREAT VEHICLE FOR SPACE AND ROAD TRIPS. GREAT INVESTMENT! I LOVE THE BUY!

Great SUV! Drive with confidence over snow, gravel, sand, or take a road trip to the mountains. This medium size SUV will take you anywhere.

I like the design, great gas mileage, overall dependable, low noise on the road, comfortable ride and approval of this first time use brand of LR vehicle.

This is the best car i owned till date, it is very good and stable to drive in all types of weather conditions and has solid power. Best car i owned so far, totally worth buying this car,
