    2014 Range Rover Sport Final Spy Shot!

    Everyone who's expecting the redesigned LR4 to be a 2014 model should realize that's not going to happen. Car-makers stretch out their new model introductions to capitalize on publicity. The redesigned models went/will go as follows: 2012 Range Rover Evoque (on sale Fall 2011) 2013 Range...

    Order of tire rotation

    My dealer said the same thing- that land rover recommends side to side rotation, but that didn't make sense to me so I had them rotate front to back- the standard convention in all other vehicles i've had in the past. Over 3K miles later everything's working great- even wear, no vibration from...

    Previous LR3 owners - any regrets getting an LR4?

    I ordered a new 2011 LR4 HSE LUX model in mid-January 2011 and it arrived late-March 2011 (about 10 weeks). When I ordered, they quoted me it would take about 12-14 weeks so I was pleasantly surprised! I think it depends on what time of the month you order it. They configure a model in...

    Beach driving on the OBX

    Actually, it was a 13 hour drive from where I live in New York State. Our friends with the LR3 also live near us so they had the same drive - and guess what? Their LR3 is a 2006 model and they've done the trip to NC six times now! If you buy a vehicle as capable as the LR3/LR4 it would be a...

    Beach driving on the OBX

    Just got back from a trip to Corolla, NC on the outer banks. Did some beach driving and drove through the sand dunes. LR4 handled it great without any trouble. Used the normal "on road" setting for the terrain response, kept the transmission in normal automatic setting, and left the tires at...

    Foreigh language display

    Not true!!! If you change your language settings from the "USA" flag to the "UK" flag, the spoken directions will change from a voice that speaks USA english to UK english. Enjoy!

    I've never seen those wheels before - are those the new style 19 inch wheels?

    New vs Used

    On a new 2011 LR4 I got $3500 off MSRP back in January of this year (ordered from the factory). Now that it's later in the model year cycle, I'd expect you could do better than that - perhaps $4500 off MSRP or better depending on how eager you are to negotiate. You'll have better luck towards...

    LR4 windshield sensors - which one does what?

    I have an '11 LR4 HSE LUX model with the vision assist package. I've been wondering what the function is of each of the windshield sensors. I took a picture of my windshield and labeled the sensors 1, 2, and 3. [FYI- this picture is taken from slightly below #1 and slightly above #2 & #3]...

    Exhaust smell - Brand new LR4

    The middle car is a 2009 Audi A4 Avant. It's my wife's car and she loves it. I don't think she's jealous of not getting to drive the LR4 - she's more of a "smaller" car kind of woman. And the other car is a 2008 BMW 335xi coupe - blast to drive, but it just doesn't cut it when you have two...

    Land Rover –April Buying Opportunity Advice – Fuel Price Advantage!

    I agree - I got my deal worked out in January on a pre-ordered 2011 LR4 LUX with Vision assist and RSE - MSRP $61,365. Negotiated final price $57,865 including the rubber mat set (a $250 value). So basically I got $3750 off MSRP. And remember, that was in JANUARY. I bet you could get...

    Exhaust smell - Brand new LR4

    Just picked up the my 2011 LR4 LUX. Love it! Only 25 miles on the ODO so far but when I got home from the dealer, I noticed a rather "acrid" smell from the exhaust. Might just be normal exhaust fumes from the brand new engine, not sure though. Possibly just "burning off" the new coatings...

    Will be taking delivery of my new 2011 LR4 HSE LUX in Nara Bronze, Almond/Arabica, with Rear-seat entertainment and Vision assist pkg on Thursday (3/31). Very excited. Will post pics once it's here.

    power folding mirrors

    One thing I've noticed in the pictures is that all the LUX vehicles with the power folding mirror pictogram HAVE the vision assist package as well (I can see the cameras in the front grill photos). I suspect that the LUX vehicles without the power folding mirror pictogram DON'T HAVE vision...

    power folding mirrors

    I am confused as to if these come on the 2011 LR4. I've looked on cars.com at several different NEW 2011 LR4s that I know are LUX models (by virture of the fact that they all have MSRPs over $60,000). There are several pics showing the drivers-side window controls. In some, they show a...

    Leather care

    Lexol leaves the leather with a matte finish. No glossy/shiny residue. It basically leaves it looking like new.

    Leather care

    I would probably use Lexol cleaner followed by Lexol conditioner. It doesn't leave any shiny residue and works really well. I used it on my BMW 335xi and it worked great. Haven't got my LR4 LUX yet, although when it arrives, I will have the same premium leather you have. See link...

    Camera issue

    I've read on these forums that the issue with the cameras is the wiring they used in the 2010 LR4 models. When the wires were threaded around "bends" (around corners under the headliner or under the floor, for example) they sometimes got bent too tightly. This messes up the signal and gives...
