Looking at the LR4 for a family hauler
Thanks for this. I have a Clek Fllo right now which is also very narrow but will look into the Diono Radian RXT and pair those up with a Cybex Aton for infant. I can live with limited third row access for now. Is it possible to fold down half the third row, let the passenger in through the rear... -

Looking at the LR4 for a family hauler
This is all great info. Keep it coming! Say I go the CPO route - it seems I am stuck buying whatever is on landroverusa.com. Correct? If I go the independent party/dealer/LR dealer route - looks like best strategy is to buy as low as possible with as few miles as possible, since it's not CPO... -

Can you buy a non CPO LR4, then have the dealer certify it and buy a service package from them? -

Looking at the LR4 for a family hauler
So I could buy an LR4 anywhere and have a dealer check it out for me? How about Craigslist? Like this one - https://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/cto/d/2013-land-rover-lr4/6393793629.html I think getting a CPO car would be the safer route to go for me, but I don't mind getting a pre-owned vehicle... -

Looking at the LR4 for a family hauler
I have a feeling I'm not going to be a fan of the rotary shift and eco stop as well. The boards I don't care about much. If reliability is the same, V8 more powerful, 2013 probably cheaper then I see no point getting a 2014-16. Am I better off getting a CPO 2013 with 50-60k miles or a non-CPO... -

Looking at the LR4 for a family hauler
Am I better off buying a 2013 (since it has a V8)? It's also going to be a bit cheaper. Any advantage to getting the 2014/15/16? Better electronics or interior features or reliability? To keep maintenance costs down, is it better to find a service package with a dealer or use a local non-dealer... -

Looking at the LR4 for a family hauler
What is the sweet spot for year/mileage/price for the LR4? I don't want maintenance headaches. Would it be wise for me to buy an extended warranty or maintenance package? What would typical yearly maintenance run for say a 2015 LR4 with 40k miles? I'm not a car guy. -

Looking at the LR4 for a family hauler
I'm reasonably confident we'll be able to fit 3 carseats in the 2nd row. The Diono Radian and Clek Fllo/Foonf are very narrow and the Cybex Aton infant seat is narrow as well. The 5yr year old will get into a booster at some point soon too. -

Looking at the LR4 for a family hauler
I'm looking at the LR4 as a family hauler for 3 kids to be seated in carseats in the 2nd row (5, 3, and infant). I don't like the look of the new Discovery and it seems less rugged. Besides, I also want to spend less. I am cross-shopping the LR4 vs. the Acura MDX (also checking out Audi Q7 Honda...
