- Are you still considering a 2019 Range Rover Sport? Let's discuss! In this video, I talk about my recent experience with the car and how it's off to a rough start. I then give you my buyers remorse scenario, and let you know if I regret my decision to buy the car.
If you're still considering the Range Rover Sport, make sure you get everything you want and don't avoid flaws or think it can be a simple fix because things could add up later like my cost.

You are a brave guy buying one of those as all I heard was horror stories about the rovers. But that what’s makes u stand out from the rest as you don’t follow trends, u go for what u like.
I’m brave. I’ll be the Guinea pig for you all lol
Every brand got a mechanic shop on the lot they all have there issues
I'm a BMW for life! I pickup my new X3 M Comp next week
Congratulations!
Very happy for you brother. you know and understand what you want, your path and everything. That is something I admire about you. Enjoy the journey, that is one beautiful Range Rover
Get the X7! It fits your channel and the reason why I started watching you. I just picked up a G05 X5 with the B58. Fantastic car, but I look forward to owning X7 M50i/M60i in the near future.
Oh nice! I had a loaner X5 and I was impressed with it. I have video coming out soon on it. I can’t rule out that the X7 won’t be on the channel.
Your deep subconscious is worried about owning an out of warranty supercharged Range Rover. I worry about you every time I see it.
You ain’t never lied 😂😭😭
Truth!
Lmao, Paul. Imma have to prove you wrong with this Range Rover.
@@eddiemcars Just remember how many people had the famous last words, "Watch this...."
You'll be fine - you need to drive the vehicle some to enjoy the performance. I also have a (pre-owned/purchase last Aug with 52K miles) 2019 RR Sport, but "Supercharge/Dynamic" with the Zurich Shield. This is my Second RR/Sport. I previously owned a 2013 RR Sport/HSE (traded-in for the 2019) and 06 BMW 550i. I got the extended warranty primarily for all electronic/digital worries. Otherwise, no issues with my RRSC to date. I'm fortunate to be in Northern Va, where there are plenty of certified mechanic shops that can service Land Rover/Jaguar and BMW vehicles. I've never taken any of my vehicles to the dealership for repairs or oil change. Going to the dealership for repairs make me sick.
How much cheaper is it to go to a certified shop than the dealer? Considerable or mildly?
I really want to get one but we all know the stories. And even basic oil changes can cost up 300? I’ve heard???
Where in northern VA do you go?
Instead of X7 get a LWB long wheel base 525 HSE. I just got my and I love it. Coming from f85 this feels like a huge buss but handling is great. Lots of space. Has OEM tow hitch and ton of nice options.
I did get a chance to sit in a full size RR. I don’t think it was the long wheel base but I felt it was very luxurious. Do you miss your F85?
Every day. I have pictures of it when it was loaded on the trailer....had it for almost 4 years but ton of personal upgrades, carbon, wheels, Dinan tune and exhaust:) was pushing good power. LR is a completely different car it will never replace the M. You just need to reprogram your brain for it :) In my situation we have a house in OBX driving on the beach, over the dunes M wasn't a good choice so here comes the Range Rover for me. Good luck with your car and I totally get it what you are saying. I think some day I will return to X5M again just hope the never body won't look too crazy. F85 was classic and looked amazing.
I just got one from Cole last weekend. 2021. Let's sync I wonder about who and what to expect. Also I see you have done the ceramic opinion etc. Have you thought about the Dyno performance tuning?
You’re unsure about the Range Rover because they are such a soulless car in my experience.
BMW vehicles are so vastly superior for an enthusiast owner as every time you get inside and drive, you can tell someone who loves 50:50 weight distribution and a high performance driving experience designed it. Let’s call it performance DNA. It’s hard to describe fully. I too have strayed to other brands and always come back to the BMW brand as it feels like home. There is no substitute for true M performance engineering which is in every BMW.
I think that’s what I like and miss.
To call is a soulless brand is ridiculous. I’ve owned plenty of both and can assure you Land Rover is a step above in every way aside from driving dynamics.
I work at Range Rover the touch screen is just how these cars are they are slow to respond you can check your software level in settings and try an over the air update to see if that helps
How’s the maintenance on the 2023 sport models ? Much better than previous generation ?
@@HiHi-bd4rn They really haven't come in for maintenance yet maybe an oil change or a tire if they ran over nail or something but besides that they haven't had any issues so far
@@Z28kid86 that’s good news, it just goes to show that this new bmw engine is a great platform that they are using. Seems as if RR really listened to there consumers to fix all the issues that were in the previous generation.
Thanks for that information! I guess it’s something I’ll have to get used to!
Hey bro hope you get this being it’s such an old comment but would you have any insight for me on whether or not the 2019 Range HSE v8 supercharged is a troublesome car or not.. or like after a certain amount of miles they become problematic?? And advice would be much appreciated thanks again
Appreciate your videos but I would be lying if I didn’t say I’m disappointed you got rid of the x5m. That’s why I started following. Good luck with the Range Rover and I’m excited to see the x7 review
So v8 sc is more reliable than the v6 sc correct?
Question : has the car broken or I’m not sure , I have watched 10 min and it sounds like waffling . Pls could u let us know if it’s broken or still working. Thank you ..
I like the Range, but when I see the Kies motor sport sticker on that cabinet on the wall, I know it was bought by a BMW fan. 👍🏾
Thank you for the information regarding the Service. Good information. I am a big service person.
Hey E, you can buff / polish ppf! I have an X5 sport that had swirl marks, they polished right out!
I appreciate that. I may try it myself with a medium cut orange pad or take it to a professional who I trust.
@@eddiemcars I used an orange pad, medium speed, with Meguirs swirl remover.
Just got an X5 myself. Come back to BMW!! It’s calling for you
bruh you sound defeated just talking about this thing. just get rid of it and come back to the dark side. looks like wifey has the best SUV in the household now.
this comment aged well
It doesn’t seem like you have a problem affording nice vehicles so why not order an X5 with the exact features and options you want… including the factory hitch? Especially based on how much money you’ve put into this Range Rover. Maybe I missed something. Seems like you rushed and bought the Range Rover. It’s nice tho.
Why is that truck on a tender???? Not a good idea with the electrical systems on these things.
It’s on one for designed for AGM batteries.
Great video, can you point us to the link for the TOW HITCH please, where you got it from, is it hard to install?
I ordered it from JLR but the part list is extensive. All in, I was 2k in parts alone.
Is there a tow plate cover available to conceal/hide the Tow Hitch? Or does it stay visible all the time?
Get the X7
What is the price difference between a new X5 to you spec vs. this RR?
About 30k 😔
I’ll have to wait a few years until the price drops on the new M60i
I know this may seem like a step down but did you look at an explorer st? If you haven't, just check a new one out
I don’t think the Explorer ST is a step down necessarily, but I do like the package it offers. Standard second row captains seats, third row, decent towing capacity, B&O sound system and 400hp. I’m just picky and main thing I wanted for my next SUV was air suspension, V8 and prefer a 7,000 lbs towing capacity. Those u-haul auto transports are heavy when empty.
@@eddiemcars ah, yeah Im pretty sure the exploder doesn't have an air suspension option. The towing capacity should be ok tho.
Good thing you have an extension on a warranty
Imo it’s the only way to go for any pre owned vehicle
Especially high end vehicle
Looks good though
Sounds like you miss a true M vehicle.
Dealers that sold their loaner cars were just greedy.
It's all about the almighty dollar.
The Range Rover is only cool if you have the latest one and you’re the first owner. They have a short shelf life. Intentional.
That’s debatable 😁
@@eddiemcars Same things goes for the X5 M - shelf life of a sliced up apple lol. Subscribed! Interesting content dude keep it up.
You can't even drive your new car and you love the dealership. They got you bro. $3800 for a hitch?? She's pretty but she's gonna be trouble. Just like a woman. Which is cool because if you keep messing with your cars you won't have a wife. Get a lexus and get your thrills some other way. JK, kinda. How about an LC500 and a nice truck. Only way to get all you need is two vehicles. Just sayin.
I know it sounds like a lot. I’ll have to do the breakdown. I wasn’t clear in the video. The $3,800 wasn’t just for the hitch. It included new bumper cover, wiring, repaint and installation. $2,000 was parts alone and a DIY to get professional painted bumper would’ve added the cost. In the end it wasn’t going to be worth a DIY unless I planned to go stealth hitch.
Also....what were u thinking paying $3800 for a hitch??? Cmon dude...that's probably the biggest ripoff ive ever seen on the history of the internet.
I don’t see it much of rip off. I didn’t have time to do the install myself. Last two BMW’s I purchased stealth hitch for $1400.
I did the install myself
Cost of the hitch was $1000
The wiring harness and towing module with programming was another $300
The OEM hitch from Land Rover cost a bit more because you have to replace a bumper cover with a different one that’s cut out. Then it needs to be painted. Parts alone for a DIY was right over $2,000
Shops wanted $500 to paint the bumper cover and I wasn’t going to “rattle can” it. Ultimately I decided to just pay and have it done.
what is off is its not the X5M!!!
That might be it!
bro get rid of it you know you don't like it, and it is a ticking time bomb. Get rid of that and that junk Tesla and go get a new x5 or whatever else, I'm tellin' ya. Good Luck!
😂😂 to be fair, I haven’t been driving it. Once I get some seat time. I can make a better decision by the end of the year what’s going to happen with it! We’ll see!
Only problem with this video is theres no BMW
😂
BMW the Ultimate Driving Machine lol. Let go of the dark side lol.
To be honest how do you go from a M X5 to a grandpas car?? It’s kinda boring….at least get AMG SUV.
It’s easier to make the move when I already have the M3. I know everyone probably won’t agree but future videos will come
@@eddiemcarsM3 is a boys car, X5 M is a man’s car…. I have a 2017 X5 sport package… I wish I can afford the X5 M…. BMW is so much fun to drive and the handling is on another level. But waiting for those off road videos.
this guy is to anal about his range rover trying to perfect it with PPF for example changing the oil when its not needed, his knowledgeable but relies on different garages to get things done sounds like he gets ripped off wherever he goes, chill and enjoy the car its going to go wrong and save your paint protection money for the major issues
😊
It’s a Range Rover of course you’re having second thoughts 😂
Haha! Touché
originally from NYC but currently reside in Raleigh, NC. I currently own a 15’ BMW 740i (alpine white+peanut butter interior). My uncle own the x7, it’s beautiful car but I’m looking into Range Rover Sport or Mercedes Benz GLE Coupe 43 AMG. Been all over the forums for reliability on the RR’s, so many mixed reviews, nonetheless hard to choose between the 2 midsize sport SUVs. This was insightful, looking forward to part 2 for more info
