Info
Well guys I've got a few newb questions for you. I am going to go look at a couple of RR sometime this week. 1 is a 1998 HSE the other is a 2004. 1: What kind of fuel economy am I looking at 2: How mechanically reliable are they(I've heard bad things on this subject) 3: What kind of life expectancy should I expect. I'm looking at these vehicles as a primary vehicle for daily driving and off roading in the mountains. Any info would really be a help.
Thanks

RE: Info
Just my opinion, but if this is going to be your primary transportation, I'd recommend finding a good deal on a certified 2004 - 2006 HSE, (or one that's available with an extended warranty as a minimum). In terms of reliability, it's kind of a crap shoot.Some folks are plagued with failures, others not as much, but the key is not to end up out on a limb financially keeping it on the road; there is not an inexpensive repair to be had.

RE: Info
I seriously doubt you will spend "the difference" in 2 years buying the older range. the 98= 10 to 15K tops the 04 probably 45k.Thats$30k, alot of money!! The older range rovers are not any less reliable then the newer cars. The engine management system is very reliable. The problems usually asociated with the early (p38a) range rovers revolve around the air suspension system, which is prone to failure and expensive to repair.
