That’s the estimate for the transfer case and transmission in our 2014 Range Rover LWB with 116,000 miles.
I want to scream. |

I'm sorry for your loss. Where's my violin.... I'm know you want to scream, but you can obs afford to pay and wont miss the bucks. Lotsa folks dont have $500 for a set of tires. |

| Stop buying the fancy cars that die and cost you money. Nobody thinks you are cute and/or rich nowadays. Car is for driving and why not get one that does drive without costing an arm and a leg. |

| Thanks OP. I was looking at a used Land Rover. This is a wake up call for me to keep my current car. |

| It's a not so hidden cost of luxury cars. Standard service/oil changes in our luxury brand run $700-800, in our Honda run $100. Every repair seems to have the same factor of expense between the two. Our luxury car is pretty reliable but Range Rovers are notoriously unreliable - so you shouldn't be too surprised. |

| Can't wait to tell DH. His 2015 Supercharged has way fewer miles and he cycles through cars constantly, but this is a good reminder for him to keep in mind when he starts getting the itch. |

| Yikes sorry OP. When people say the cost of ownership was high on these, I didn't realize how high. Thank you for the wake up call. Removing from my wish list now. |
