Default I did...

Definitely no where close to being a Range Rover. But the interior looks better than the last model, more modern than the Discovery. I really wanted to like this, but I went with a full size SUV instead due to space. The LR2 is about the same size as the CRV. To a certain extent, it even drives like one. It doesn't really feel like a V6. The main issue with this is the maintenance. While the LR2 is still new, Land Rover's track record steered me away from it. Nice alternative to the main stream X3, Q5, GLK line however.

Maybe because it's a POS.

I thought the X3 was a POS. Even my friends buddy that works at BMW admits it.

I just don't get Land Rover's at all. They have ZERO appeal to me in every way. But I'm weird.
