‘Second hand cars have gone up in value, so I sold my Range Rover’ - Profit ✅
‘Then I bought while prices are high’ - Priceless 😂
I should know better
@@HighPeakAutos it’s your money Matt, I’m not one to judge, hope you and the new one will be very happy!
Man maths at its best
Stonks!
@@HighPeakAutos I've heard people say that sellers are the easiest to sell to... don't know if it's right though... 😉
When you genuinely love a car and it’s your job and hobby then you’re absolutely right to make yourself happy Matt. Life’s much too short.
couldnt say it better myself
Have to admit, after changing from the r/rover sport to the full size one, even though its a few years old, it makes me feel special every time I drive it. Like you said in one of your earlier videos, I also don't feel worthy of it, it's one hell of a car in many ways.
Totally agree
Why would driving a large box with 4 wheels make you feel special cannot understand it larger fuel costs and running cost strange how folk love material things
@@theequaliser8026 I take it you typed that comment using a large screen phone. Why would you buy a phone that big when there are smaller ones with cheaper price that works just as fine?!
I got angry when I saw the title, but I calmed down when I started watching the video. I absolutely love the interior of this RR, and dare I say it looks better than your older RR Vogue's interior. Congratulations Matt, and cheers to 20k hassle free miles in the pinnacle of luxury 4x4.
Glad you liked it!
Congrats indeed 👍
You hit the nail on the head when you called that interior "opulent" . Yes... black interiors are ok but cream/white interiors feel so classy to sit in and since watching your videos I am growing to love the full size Range Rover more than the Sport models.
The sport model has lost completely his charisma in the L405 era !!! Can’t even bother to turn my head on … the classic one looks so chic and cool at the same time … “ tranquille charismatic elegant articulate road presence nothing to prove !!! “
I know exactly what you mean. I sold my Boxster for more than I paid for it, then immediately went out and bought something I could never afford to run in the UK, a V8. A Ford Falcon XR8 to be precise. It's more Australian than Mick Dundee drinking Castlemaine XXXX on Sydney harbour bridge whilst chucking a shrimp on the barbie. It's not that fast, so big that it has its own postcode, and it drinks like Oliver Reed on a pissup. But it has masses of personality, and to me that is A Very Good Thing.
My mate in Melbourne has one of those. I can see the appeal
What an EPIC color combo. Beautiful car Matt. Since this one is such low miles, I look forward to the 6 month and 12 month cost of ownership updates. 😁
I literally could'nt agree more about the whole "having a nice car" thing, if you work hard, and that's you're thing screw what people think, it makes absolute sense.
Very nice new car by the way! 👌👍
Exactly! Thanks
However irrational the anger might be, once something starts bugging us it can ruin anything. As soon as you notice something like the seat warming delay it's going to eat at you until you throw 8 grand at a couple of radiators.
Haha exactly
Well done Matt, you deserve to treat yourself once in a while as you work very hard. Lovely cars, Rangies!
Thanks 👍
"You end up thinking to yourself 'What am I doing driving this ?"" : I bought a 7 year old, 1987 1.1 Ford Fiesta Popular as a first car with the air of keeping it for a year to get used to driving, and then getting something nice. But I got so used to it, I drove it for 6 years (no laughing !), and only changed it as my sister was selling her car, and it was too good a deal to pass up ( I "upgraded" to a 12 year old Volvo 343 ha ha ).
Congratulations Matt! She's a beauty indeed and I love the lighter interiors. However, I cannot help think that something has been lost in the exterior design. With the latest range rover this is even more so. The L332 will probably always be the best looking range rover mixing luxury with rugged looks.
Dont watch Harry's Garage you'll want the 2022 starting at 94k for the SE SWB, it's amazing
I predict in 7 years time, we'll a salivating video with the 2022 model. :-)
I saw it on CarWow absolutely gorgeous
No you won't. Those are hideous.
@@cadillachernandez2271 why you think L322 more in beautifuler shape sort of ?? Than L405 .., ?? Those one are roundish like female 😊
This is the kinda video I wanna see when I open UA-cam. Such a treat!
Nice vehicle Matt, you wear the Range Rover well. Be careful of the romantic interests chasing your Black RR though, it might not end well. Having a jumper knitted could be bliss in comparison!
Haha true
Awesome upgrade, great catch! Always fun and never tire of the landscape. Thank you Sir :)
Glad you enjoyed it
I’m on my fifth RR once you’ve had one your hooked . Best car ever . I’ve looked at other brands BUT nothing comes close 👍
Mercedes GLC
You know what you like. I have the same problem with Ducati's. I know their faults (well not all of them), but I like them. That is why I have three of them.
When you have a passion for something, you often get pain with it, but it is usually worth it.
Love a Range Rover - very nice upgrade over the 2013 car. Great color combo 👍
Nothing makes you feel as special as a Range Rover - I have had 14 of them and would never be without one. Great video Matt - enjoyed it - thanks
With the same number plate on, no one knows I have changed cars - Just the bank manager and he is still trying to figure out why!
Hats off to you Matt. Nice to see someone doing well. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Nice👌
Just bought myself a black Velar D300, R-Dynamic, fully loaded, 22s with the ‘deployable side steps’…love it😁
Good choice!
What a lovely example this is. Well done Matt. You will definitely enjoy it.
In the nineties I ran around in a regular red Golf. Then traded it for a red GTI and no-one noticed. I didn't care either!
This is absolutely stunning, congratulations on the new Rangy!
You sir are a true Petrolhead, money in the bank, money out the bank! 😂😂😂👌🏻
I lasted one year without a Lexus ISF after 5 years, love being back in one and yes I paid over but every time I drive it I just think “I love this car”.
Hahaha thats right
Single man? I assumed you were married with children. Good for you! Fully agree to having a RR. I love it too!
I probably should be by now
Beautiful machine Matt 👌 I couldn't agree more with your sentiments on who a nice car is for. I couldn't care what other people think. Getting in my XF every morning is all about my individual experience being the way I like it 👍
Problem with owning a Range Rover is that everything else feels crap once you’ve sold it , despite the repair shenanigans!
That’s the problem. You cannot replace them with anything better. The only things better are Bentley and RR but they’re not as practical or utilitarian
Stunning car mate congratulations you can only replace a range rover with another to be fair. My dad's just treated himself to a 2014 XJR so he's feeling very happy with life.
Very nice. Good choice
Prestige Black/Black is always a taxi no matter the make/model. Black/Light interior is always a private buyer and always looked after better. My A8 black/cream is awesome.
Well said
Brilliant decision Matt, totally get the feeling is for you and not to show off, as you state, work hard so play hard, still an awkward choice for me though between this and new XC90 and Q7! All too damn good!
You are hand down the best car reviewer on UA-cam your humour and delivery it’s top class..
Wow, thanks!
You need to move to Alderley edge, I'm sure you'll find an orange bird to take the rangie to waitrose for you .
I know exactly how you feel about driving a JLR product. I like you took advantage of the hike in second hand valuations and recently traded my Discovery Sport for £2.5k less than I purchased it for 2 years and 30k miles ago. Our 2018 Jaguar E Pace arrives tomorrow, thankfully no time without a JLR product on the driveway. Not the brightest decision in light of price paid but still worth it. That paint is amazing. I nearly purchased an Evoque in that colour and when the sun caught it wow. The JAG is Santorini black but still smart against black alloys.
"Range Rover.. the only car you'll ever need." - Alan Partridge
"Jean how many times, I AM NOT driving a Metro, and i'll keep saying it, til you get bored"
Although with Matt it's plural: the only cars.
@@hermanmunster3358 On the Rover 100: "they've rebadged it you fool!" (* it's Lynn, btw ;))
did the same this year. bought a 17 Jag F Type R then decided to complement it a week ago with a 15 Range Rover Sport Supercharged. all lightly used 1 owner cars. JLR really makes cars that make you feel special for every occasion.
I love them. Good choice
Matt you are legend😂 „knitting their own jumper”. Thats one Of reasons i watch your channel. Thanks a lot for bringing me laughter.
Haha thanks for watching
JLR and many other manufacturers appear to have adopted a policy of producing mega expensive, blinged up, super expensive vehicles, of a low quality, pitched at buyers who are content to pay huge maintenance and repair costs. Sustainability at its best.
Congratulations! Lovely motor. I was considering selling my Landy - I bought it at the start of first lockdown when prices crashed, I could sell on now for a tidy profit after over a year's motoring... but I love it too much, so I'm keeping it. (Unless I see an L494 that I can afford - which is unlikely!)
Thats the thing. I didnt really want to sell my old one
Hi Matt, beautiful car. I couldn't agree more. I reckon, if you want to own and drive the car of your dreams, then you should just work hard and do it. My passion is buying and selling cars and I love the whole process of finding a vehicle, checking it out and seeing if I can derive a fair profit from selling the vehicle while also enjoying the short ownership of the vehicle. I suppose it is why I enjoy the job so much, it never feels like I am working lol. Keep up the good work Matt. I am from South Africa and would love to visit one day.
You were gonna sell the discovery to your friend, ended up selling your range just to buy another one. Total bonkers Matt, but heart overruling head is the same disease that most of us have.
I've always lived by the motto that you should buy the best you can afford and that which makes you happy; driving around in a car that you dislike only gives you a negative outlook which will translate into your personal and business life, so it makes perfect sense to drive a car that you like and gives you a positive outlook on life, the benefit of that is immeasurable.
Congratulations Matt, it's a lovely looking car, with a smart bright interior. I like the sound of the colour, which is on the edge - not black or purple, somewhere inbetween, which is intriguing.
Well done, good move if it makes you happy. And I fully agree what you say about jealous people and nice cars. I love driving my nice car, it's like a coat you put on, it makes you feel good - you wouldn't put on a shabby one would you?
Quite right
Whew!....for a moment there I thought you were going to become "less eligible" by design...good move on coming to your senses. Love that purple black; Lincoln used to offer one similar called Deep Orchid.
A completely understandable purchase . Why wouldn’t you ? Welcome BACK to the club 👍
Good for you Matt. Lovely motor and a reward for all the graft. Keep up the good work, your channel is the nuts 👍
Thank you!
Fair play mate, that is a lovely motor. I hope that one day I can own one of those myself, but always conscious of what family may think. Keep up the good work.
Well done fella, certainly deserved, respect.
I always tell people who can't see through the fog of life, success and wealth mean nothing compared to the type of person you are.
Thanks!
So the burning question is what do you think of the Range Rover and the rear end design?
Not a fan
You’ve made me smile and happy Matt. Awesome cars Range Rovers 👌👏👌great addition Matt, turbine style wheels look fantastic
Glad you enjoyed
If any car is on a steal to order list I imagine this one is top 5. In other words it's very desirable.
Love it!!! So nice looking. The wheels, the colour and the shape go so well together and looks so aggressive and intimidating, which is a complement. Enjoy your new car - you deserve it!
Thank you
Jobs used to switch out his SL 55AMG every 30 days due to a loop hole. Fresh black turtlenecks, and a silver on blackSL AMG to match
Every 6 months
Well Done! I looks amazing. I drive a Nissan Leaf and I let the mother of my children drive my XC90 Inscription. I can 100% relate to your reasoning. I work so hard for my family and driving the Leaf is taking away my motivation. Need to find a way to afford another XC90 (or RR) 😂. I can’t live like this
Haha I totally sympathise
U need to get a life I drive a twenty year old car it's fine
@@toy838 Im driving my old XJ for almost 20 years. Why wasting money on sth. newer. I dont care about scratches or transporting a christmas tree... Its still elegant. Let others burn 700 Euros a months on some ugly new cars... I rather have the money invested
Lovely car Matt , very envious I am.
That interior is beautiful, good choice 👌
I would like one in a nice deep cobalt blue pearlescent colour personally, with the same interior. I just think light interiors lift your mood, and "curb your enthusiasm" to feel like a boy racer.
I saw the title and thought you'd sold it to pay for the repairs on the £500 disco 🤦♂️ If you're working all the time might as well spend it on something you desire otherwise what is the point. I think I'll always keep a knock about car for visiting undesirable areas 😂
You should keep the Volvo for the next lockdown round of panicking buying , you can get loads of panicking beer , pasta and bog rolls in the V70 and keep the new Range Rover in pristine condition , 🤷🏼♂️ genius !
Youll defo hoover up the snatch in that Matt 🤣
Lol
That is definately not Range Rover speak. Huh!
That cheeky wink will have the ladies flocking to your feet, brilliant videos keep them coming.
Hi Matt !
New one definitely looks Loverly
Best colour combi , as you say the light moonstone silver interior just makes the car , ok you might get a bit of blue Levi jean stain now and again but the trade off is so worth it
And I’m sure with the spec and colour combination again it will hold value
Those wheels 😍
Thanks
R
Thanks! 👍
It's a crime to wear blue jeans in a vehicle with such lovely soft and light coloured leather. Have some people no class?
Those Volvo remarks [V70 owner here] made me drop a stitch, whilst knitting my new scarf...You evil young whipper Snapper! 😠
Hahaha
Well I am surprised you sold your RR that easily which makes me wonder how long this RR will last before it too becomes expendable! Don't get me wrong Matt, I do believe that if you want something and can afford it then go for it.
Anyway, enjoy it whilst you've got it!
Classic bloke maths behind this purchase....8k more but no ulez charge and soft headrests. Love it.
Your quite right you know the game it’s absolutely stunning interior looks fab.👍👍👍
Was worried reading the title but so glad you’ve upgraded…. Enjoy…
You should review the new Range Rover at some point, as well as the B-Max.
I'd love to
Believe me Matt you don't want the kind of woman is is only attracted to guys in black Range Rovers, it's the same reason I now drive an Aygo.
Haha true
Good point! They will drain your wallet faster than an old Range Rover!
Some cars suit certain people. My brother in law had two at the same time. (I drove his 90’s V8 down to the south of France and back it nearly bankrupted me😂) he once bought a Mercedes SLK and it just didn’t suit him! He very quickly went back to a near new Land Rover Range Rover and all was good in the world again 😂 I guess you don’t need telling the Range Rover certainly seems to suit you and your latest one is a stunner 😳👍🏻 I’ve got to get myself one 🤞🏻
Love a light coloured interior - you’re absolutely right. I don’t understand the attraction of black on black?
That does look nice. I get what you’re saying about a nice car, having recently treated myself to something that is a massive step up from my old car.
It’s such a stress free and calming experience now getting from A to B. I only use my car for long trips and I now look forward to them
This model is so much nicer, better wheels, nices body kit love it
Glad you like it!
Superb video Matt. Superb car! I’m patently waiting for an acquaintance to sell me their 2013 Vogue SE 4.4L (white outside, black inside) with all the goodies. I prefer the colour combo you’ve got, and I kinda wanted a 3.0 for cost, but beggars can’t be choosers!
The 4.4 is far better so it’s worth waiting for
Nothing wrong with your back in black mark 2 ,you work hard enough. Enjoy all them extras .
Hi there Matt! I'd like to ask you something about the 2 litre diesel Ingenium engine that you can find on JLR vehicles:
Is it true that the first gen XF with the PSA 2.2 diesel engine producing 200 HP is the most reliable XF, while, on the contrary, the second gen XF is a total disaster? I've read about many people having issues with it......
Thanks a lot!
Hi! Yes I believe the old 2.2 is more reliable generally. The 2.0d isnt that bad though if its looked after
I had a 2.2 and no problems! I've not had an ingenium engined car yet, I avoided it by buying an early disco sport, whilst they were still using the FL2 engine as I'd heard that the ingenium engines weren't brilliant. My mechanic has had issues with them.
I work on land rovers and jaguars and yes I can confirm the 2.2 is a much better engine the ingenium suffers with timing chain issues
If you're going to get a Jag, get a V6 or V8.
Best advice I can give with the ingenium engines is as follows:
1) If you don’t drive long distances- don’t get one.
2) ignore the two year servicing recommendations and have an oil and filter change at least once a year
3) don’t use cheap diesel (supermarkets etc) try and use premium fuel, if you can’t get access to premium fuels use millers ecomax with every tank full
4) make sure your warranty covers EGR valve, EGR Cooler and NOX sensors, preferably the DPF as well
5) keep an eye out for oil dilution issues as well!!
Grey/Silver looks lovely, much more classy than Black, plus Black seats get hot in the sun! All they need now is heated and "cooled" steering wheel😁 seriously I hate when my steering wheel is baking hot after being parked for a while on a sunny day!
Absolutely love the New RR Matt…
U work hard & u deserve a luxurious mode of transportation.
It’s totally different from the old one,I’m assuming it’s the autobiography model ??
The interior is opulent,luxurious & almost regal & majestic…I’d go for that colour combo…there’s actually a new RR out today,u can trade it inn for that in a few years time 🤣🤣🤣💷💷💷
Haha thanks! It'll be a while before I get behind the wheel of a new one
@@HighPeakAutos maybe the lottery will be kind to you mate…but you should be content & satisfied with your new RR…it’s a beautiful example.
I love this guy , pleased for his success
8k to keep warm and be able to climb easily into those comfy seats..sounds like good value to me!! No rear wheel steer though..give it a couple of years. As I mentioned…Volvo…hateful
I like your reasoning. I sold my old SUV this summer because I couldn't believe how much I could get for it. 3 months later, I bought a 2018 Porsche Macan S. And I paid too much for it. But I figure that inflation is here to stay, life is too short, and ICE cars will soon be a thing of the past. In the end, there is no justification for what we do other than it's how the car makes us feel.
I’m a fan of the Macan. Good choice
"It's how the car makes us feel" - well said 👍
My 18 year old L322 had a nice button to activate the heated seats......even when reversing ......and yes it still works as it should! Keep em come High Peak.... always like your 'land rover' reviews.
I totally understand what your saying about driving a Range Rover , we’ve literally just upgraded our base model velar to a velar SE R Dynamic, with just 2000 miles on the clock, as a long distance lorry driver, working 65 , 70 hrs a week and away from home and family all week, I totally get what your saying about driving a nice car , something really satisfying about driving a Range Rover. Work hard for it , why not ??
Good choice
@@HighPeakAutos 👍👍
I usually drive an old Defender TD5 or an old 996 Carrera but used my wife’s auto new e class yesterday when I did my 4th 80 mile call out of the day to north Wales.I think I finally need heated seats, auto box , comfy seats a good stereo and space to let my belly hang so I’m looking for a grown up car and I think you’ve helped to convince me that it’ll be a Range Rover
Love the channel, your old man sense of humour 😂
I was ready to swear at you in the comment.... but thank God you came to your senses and brought another one..... happy warrantied motoring dude 👍👍👍
Thanks!
Absolutely love this channel. Thanks for sharing 👍 🇮🇪
Glad you enjoy it!
I work at a dealership that mainly specialises in German performance cars but every now and then we get a range in and just moving then round the forecourt you can feel the smoothness in the steering and everything absolutely beautiful cars
They’re just so much more luxurious than a Q7, X5, ML etc
I used to worry about driving around in my modified 140. People always looked with that 'probably a dickhead' stare. Only once I realised that if I could have nobody on the road but me, would I be happiest. Then, I stopped caring.
I'm amazed that you didn't use your negotiating skills on the windscreen price. I suppose the saving will be there if you need to use the warranty.
Congratulations, a full video without mentioning a gearbox service.
Haha that’s coming in part two
@@HighPeakAutos thank goodness. Though your channel had been hacked!
Stunning car by the way. Nice work. Do the 22s affect the ride quality compared to your previous?
i sold my landy last year at the start of lockdown and bought a f11 520d 2017, its a great car but i sure miss my landy
*I've got the same mentality when it comes to rovers. I recently sold my sport. Looking for the identical rover as this one. I literally grab a coffee in the morning and stand in my spare bedroom, looking out the window into my driveway oogling at my range rover lol. Love them.*
Hahaha I think I’ll always have one
@@HighPeakAutos without a doubt. I feel lost not having one currently. Driving my F350 feels oddly depressing lol
I'm not above driving a scabby old V70, but I am above waiting 15 seconds to be able to switch on my heated seats. It's so reassuring to know it's not just me who approaches life like that.
I fully concur with your choice of a light interior with dark paint although the privacy glass is also a must have; it’s so much classier and a more pleasant place to be than double black which in my opinion is for hoodies! Thanks also for helping me justify spending so much money on a car when I’m retired and only do 8000 miles a year, a RR is probably the best boost for self esteem you can buy.
8000! I only do 4000 in mine 😀 but every trip is great. I have the light cream interior and definitely wouldn’t want the drab black leather. Privacy glass and Santorini Black is my choice.
How you feel about your Land Rover is exactly the same as me! I sold my HSE Velar that I loved, cherished and worked so so hard to obtain- through change of job and ridiculous price of bread my sensible head told me to sell it and think of the future/bank balance. Literally after slightly more than 11 minutes- about 2-3 days I looked out on the empty drive and instantly regretted it. Like waving goodbye to a loved one knowing it’ll never return- I got straight on Auto-trader on the hunt for it’s replacement. Yes I lost my deposit through high miles and poor residual value. But you know what I don’t care either. We drive them because we love them, the bills are part of the package.
Just wanted to say, I 100% agree with your comment regarding not being bothered at all about the prestige/kudos of owning a Range Rover. I'm like you, just really enjoy driving them.
You've earned it and you've had the last one for 20 months, time for an update.
i always thought men trying to attract women drove lowered BMWs with oversized wheels, loud exhausts and blacked out windows. Glad you're happy with the new Rangey, lets hope it is as reliable as its predecessor.
Had to wait 15 seconds to turn on the heated seats….love it 😂
Best deal I ever had a few years back now was a £500 Corsa B van, I thought if it lasted 6 months then I'd do all right, 6 months arrived straight through MOT, I had this van in the end for 5 years, cost me next to nothing and I sold it for £450, I spotted it 3 years later still going well.
'I bought this car for me not other people, I could care less what other people think.' Then 2 minutes later, ''as a single lad, who am I going to attract in a 20 year old Volvo?'
