Living with a Used Range Rover - What is it like?

Living with a used Range Rover has been one of the most fun, exciting, and scary experiences I've had with a car, and after two years, I'm confident in saying I made the right choice with buying a used Range Rover L322! Here's what it's actually like to live with a used Range Rover.

Land Rover could easily be defined as “a brand in which everyone has their opinion about before ever driving one.” There seem to be two huge sides to the spectrum. You love them or hate them. Not too many people go “eh, I guess.”
I’ve discussed it before in other videos, but the L322 Range Rover was the bridge that Land Rover needed to bring the brand into a new light. It changed nearly everything about the brand, and it was one of the best moves the company ever made. But after 7 years and 124,000 miles, what is it like to own today?

This model is a 2011 Land Rover Range Rover HSE Lux. In 2011, the HSE LUX sat between the HSE and Supercharged models in the US market. So this one has a few extra options that the base model didn’t come with.
Obviously, the 5.0L V8 from Jag had some hiccups. Timing chain replacement is common after about 80k miles, and you’ll need to do spark plugs and fuel injectors as well. It’s far from cheap to maintain, but in comparison to the 4.4 V8 from BMW, there are fewer common problems. Still some, but fewer.

As for the exterior, the L322 received a few facelifts during its 10 years of production. It started with a face that looked comparable to an updated P38A before evolving into the final facelift, which is a slightly closer resemblance to the modern L405 Range Rover that replaced the L322.

Now, as far as living with it goes, let’s go over some of my expenses with it. This doesn’t include repairs and everything. That can be found in the Cost of Ownership video. This is about things you’ll deal with regularly, such as fuel.

A typical fill up for me is around $70, which is usually $3.00/gallon. That’s going to change from time to time, but it’s usually an average of $70 for a tank. Insurance for full coverage with State Farm runs about $184/mo with a clean driving record. Obviously, again, that’s going to change based on tons of different aspects.

A strange part of Range Rover ownership, though, is constantly being on the lookout for something that doesn’t sound right. I take a lot of pride in the L322, so I like to make sure everything is in working order.

In a small town like this, though, a LOT of people seem to think it’s new. I won’t lie, the attention the Range Rover gets can be fun. It’s no Ferrari or even an Aston Martin, but it gets comments and looks in parking lots and drive-thrus, which I frequent.

Now let’s talk about interior space. It’s got some here, and here, and here, but not much here. If you have a family with long legs, the L322 might not be the best choice. Rear legroom is shocking with the seats in a position where I’m comfortable. Everyone has their own opinion on that, though, but the rear is just a bit too small.

Boot space or cargo space is ample, though. With the split tailgate, loading the rear with bikes, desks, chairs, trees, or small cities is fairly simple. I’ve used the Range Rover to move offices a few times, and it’s so easy. For small moves, the Range Rover handles everything, and it’s one of my favorite parts about it. I might only use the cargo space occasionally, but when I do, it transforms into a truck.

If there’s not enough room, you can tow a trailer to fit the rest, but I won’t need to do that until our next move to Orlando. I’ve had nearly everything in the back of the Range Rover.

Moving up to the front, let’s talk about driver luxuries. While the Range Rover maybe 7 years old now, it’s far from “dated” on the interior. The TFT display replaces what would normally be a gauge cluster.

Everything feels very high quality, which makes sense because it is. Living with the luxuries of the Range Rover on a daily basis makes the entire driving experience unique, relaxing, and fun all at the same time.

The Range Rover is still more than adequate at being the best daily driver SUV around. It conquers every aspect of a luxury SUV. That is, unless you have a tall family. In that case, check out the Discovery or LR4.
