Hi all,

(Thanks to Nik, he gave me de idea to open this thread)

As the titles says, would you buy a Range Rover Sport again?

Yes/ No?

Which one?

-------------------------

I will buy again and again and again for as long as I live in UK.

*** If I decide to live somewhere else than probably I will buy something else like a Range Rover Sport AGAIN  !!! RRS TDV8 !!!

Noooooooooooooooo Waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Still hoping for a S2 one day!

No If you took some fog and put it in a jar, would it be missed.

Yes, the 3.6V8 2010 model  Graham

09 TDV8 Zermat Silver

Without any hesitation
... it would allways be a V8

yes,KAHN VESUVIUS Big fun of RRS-my one WHITE-RED with wide body kit plus RS alloys all from KAHN

Probably not but if funds permit would like a Full Fat  MY2011 HSE Santorini/Ivory/Piano Black/Privacy Glass/TV .Sadly gone.

As long as they don't hike the next generation one up, and emissions are lower for company car tax then yes, I'd have another. If not I will end up in an evoque. I should probably dump the company car way of doing things, as we paid £50k for it, and I pay personal tax of about £5.5k a year in 5 years that works out at about £77k between me and the company, any tax Bods advise me if I am missing something (beancounter!?!?!?)
Cheers

Too late if bought outright by the company,might have been a bit more tax efficient to buy it personally with dividend income or leased with a large personal contribution from dividend income but too late now I think? MY2011 HSE Santorini/Ivory/Piano Black/Privacy Glass/TV .Sadly gone.

No, No , No

Not because of the car but because of the LR engineering back up and designe department being incompetent and charlatans Now - MY11 RRS Autobiography TDV6, Orkney gray, tints, steps, daylight running lamps and allllll the toys!!!
Ex- RRS HSE TDV6 07 Java Black, bi xenon, corner lights, side steps, tints, cool box, smoke side repeats, chrome "sport" boot sill
Ex - Audi A4 Cab 3.0TDi Quattro
Ex - Freelander2 SE TD4
Ex - CRV Auto

Would I have another RRS ? - too early to say for definite to be honest, as I'm only 8 months into ownership. At the moment, I think I would, although like many others, I'd like a FFRR if funds permitted.

@ Dave - re tax. Unfortunately personal tax is not my specialty, more corporate finance. As Chris says, there are some clever things you can do with dividends or even leasing, but if the company has bought the car, then it may be too late. It could be making enquiries as to whether you could buy the car from the company (maybe even take as a dividend ) and then move forward on a more efficient basis. Worth speaking to a specialist personal tax accountant as there as numerous schemes out there.........just ask Jimmy Carr  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

I'm no Jimmy Carr, but I think I am using most of the legal ways of 'reducing my liability ' , it just struck me recently that I am paying twice, the longer I keep the car. Leasing is not an option as I like to own things outright, old fashioned I know, but that's the way I am!!.
Back to the topic, if the new one is not cheaper to run,(as in tax) then I will probably buy my current one off the company and get a cheaper company car for the mrs to run around in
