It's true. I bought a Range Rover P38 4.6. My husband said not to, but, oh well, that doesn't matter! ;-)

It's mechanically excellent, with no real issues, but I was expecting it to be luxurious, quiet and far more economical to run. LPG is used as much as possible, but the 95L tank only gives me a range of 210 miles ( I know it doesn't take the full 95 L, but fills to roughly 80%). I was advised 300 miles was the norm.

All the suspension airbags are good, as is the compressor, but in all honesty, the ride is less than plush and it bumps down the road with rattles aplenty.

I love the adjustable height suspension (especially as it gives me a safe view over the Devon hedgerows), and the 4x4 traction is great. But that's it.

What could I replace it with?

Do any other SUV's have adjustable height suspension? Is 35mpg realistic, or am I dreaming?

I definitely have buyers remorse, and I hate my husband being right! fk!

Thanks for the replies, guys. I should have qualified the 35mpg...I meant in comparative terms taking the 59p per L cost of LPG, etc.

I'll give it a clean and move it on ASAP.

Any other suggestions regarding the next steer? How about an early Cayenne S? ;-)
