Fun, and can get expensive
Bought it 2 month ago, used. The car is fun. Needed some things worked on when I got it, but I know how to use my tools. I know a local Mechanic that will take in problem children like this too.... A wheel bearing and lower ball joint have gone out on it, 200 bucks in parts and paying an alignment shop to straighten her out she'll be happy again. Fun to drive, might get another for me, my wife loves this one ;-)

Land Rover- paying for the name
Electric problems happen all the time, almost all of my windows don't roll down other than those minor things it's been able to me whoever I need to go. Without any issues. My oil and coolant no leak but I don't know if that is a common with these vehicles or if it's just mine

I dislike this vehicle intensely. It is totally not dependable.
The car is expensive to maintain and is very expensive to have any work performed. It is also unreliable. Periodically it will not start at all. The car is difficult to find a mechanic who will work on it. This forces me to have to go to a dealership to have work performed, this is very expensive.
