Every one I have talked to says the RRS is very reliable.

The power trains on these vehicles are very strong and will out last anything on the road. However, due to their technological nature suffer from electrical problems that can range from minor inconveniences to the vehicle refusing the start. The RR sport is very closely related to the LR3, so you might want to take some time and go on edmund's and look a the reviews for the LR3 and RR Sport. I have found that the reviews are either they loved it, or hated it.
