Back in 2014 I owned a certified 2011 Range Rover sport supercharged. I owned it for 18 months. Within the first 12 months it needed new set of 20 inch tires, brakes, a new water pump and a new supercharger. I started heading a clunk in the front end and was told the noise were bushings not covered under warranty. All this occurred in under 35k on the ODO. I liked the vehicle but it was the most problematic vehicle I’ve ever owned and I’ve owned a lot of high end cars. I didn’t even mention the electrical gremlins…

Not a surprising list.
I go for reliability, like my 2016 subaru forester xt, 250hp about 250 ft.lb, 270,000 miles and runs like the day I bought it. Only one set of brake pads, one serpentine belt, two sets of spark plugs and same turbo since new. I change oil myself every 4000 miles, it's so easy a blind man could do it.

It's misleading to say "older Range Rovers were more reliable". Because in comparison to today's hi tech electro creations the old ones were much the same, pound for pound reliability wise. I owned one for 12 years, I liked it, but, lucky I'm a mechanic and fortunately the early ones were simple enough, but it always took a lot of maintenance to keep it going and roadworthy. A lot like "Grandfather's Axe".

My wife and once stopped in at a Porsche dealer back in the mid 2000’s to check out a used Cayenne. I was driving a 2000 Lexus RX300 at the time and looking to possibly upgrade. I was shocked at how poorly the Cayenne had held up with relatively modest mileage. The interior looked shoddy and dated, and the drive line was whining. When I mentioned to the Porsche salesman that I thought there was a problem in the driveline he became a real ass. I left thinking what a piece of crap the Cayenne was given its’ price. That was the last time ever stepped foot in a Porsche dealer. I currently drive a 2010 RX350 with 220,000 miles and it’s still pretty tight.

I learned years ago about the domestics and the hard way. Never look back. They still can't design a vehicle with personality. I've just not had good luck with them. The couple older suburbans were great on long trips. They have some engines downpat, but it's so many little things that added up.
