Living up to its unreliable history
I forget the exact numbers, but according to Dave Ramsey, a new car loses ~75% of its value in 4-5 years. I’d say a $65k LR4 for $22-24 is slightly above average. I’m guessing that a “luxury car” is typically worse than that average as well. -

Living up to its unreliable history
Any time you buy ANY used vehicle you run the risk of buying someone else’s headache. So you’ve had better luck on other cars, good for you. What did you expect a LR enthusiast forum to say when you come right out and bash the brand we (most of us) love? People are trying to talk you off the... -

Living up to its unreliable history
Sounds like something wasn’t done right. As to your last sentence, it doesn’t matter what you drive, that’ll never be true. I don’t buy new, ever, so I can’t speak about the new cruisers. I considered a LC before buying my 3, for reliability. They’re just not interesting to me, I’ll pay the... -

2005 LR3 Key Fob Replacement or Battery
I bought a new case off eBay and a battery off amazon. Opened up the original and reused the blade and guts in the new shell. My biggest snag was I didn’t pay attention to how many turns the blade had in the original remote. It was a huge deal, I had to pop it back apart a few times to get that...
