Right on Mr. Crowley. I recently sold mine for one reason, too f#@$%^ slow on the hwy. Just not good for those long journeys to Death Valley unless one is retired. What it could do in the dirt; let's just say I would bail the vehicle before I maxed it, unbelievable. Man I do love my VX though.
Thanks for the input.
Can some1 post a pic of the back of the "LR3" not the 04 or any other model, i'm getting confused...lololol
Not sure if you are really joking but CYRK did. Check back. The Rear window is meant to offer more rear view vision from the driverside.Quote:

I have an 04 RR.
Land Rover is owned by Ford after ford bought out LR in late 90s or early 2Ks. That includes Range Rover. They are not split up.
The thing is, Ford bought the readily BMW developed Range Rover and instead of re doing the design the went ahead and sell as it was.
The Range Rover is all BMW sans Radio and NAv system on the 05 RR. BMW agreed to supply ford with the engine for a couple more years.
The RR is a nice car comfortable but I dont think its worth the money. I get more enjoyment and satisfaction out of the VX than the RR. I feel like the VX is more of an extension of me rather than transportation equipment
Ford is replacing the BMW engine with one from Jaguar............
Hey BigJoe.
I heard. I dont know which is better but I am stuck with the RR.
I dont think I will sell any soon
.
Ford just recently released the new 'old' Mustang ......
.
maybe they will introduce (re-introduce ?) the Bronco ..... again ........
.
How about it ........ a relatively compact 4 (or 5) seat 4WD SUV .... on a full frame ...... with a small V8 ........
.
I think I saw a similar concept recently ......... maybe they can match or up the Toyota FJ cruiser .......

I swapped my Range Rover for the VX. I was actually looking through the ads for something for my wife but couldn't resist the VX, I'd wanted one since I first saw it at the motor show as a concept.
My RR was the earlier all BMW model and although it was generally a good car on and off road it suffered badly from poor build quality (it was still built in the UK), I got fed up with bits falling off it or not working.
My VX feels bullet proof in comparison to the RR and I couldn't believe my luck with the deal.
PS The Discovery and Freelander also have bad reputations over here for build quality and reliability.

English cars have electrical problems, my friend had a discovery, and one day it wouldnt start, and just like my moms old jag, the entire electrical was messed up, she still wanted a newer jag, so far her s type hasnt had any problems, its pretty quick.
