Hard to say if Land Rover is improving or not, one client has one, but I don’t ask people I work for about their cars. I’m sure it would be fine for a one or two year lease. Most of those vehicles are okay for 2-3 years, it’s after that where the money pit begins to mire the owner’s existence.
Given the price of parts for some upper class vehicles I can understand the theft issue. I mean a Land Rover starter is magically $300-400 more than a normal brand. It sure isn’t because they are made better.
It’s like paying the Apple tax on RAM, only worse.
