I can explain that on this really odd story. My wife sold the car to her employee on an installment basis so he was paying her back every month. Once he learned his girlfriend was pregnant and could not afford the car, he simply decided to return it to us. That was why we took it back.

I do know well what I am getting into if I jump into the LR3 wagon.

I have 3 LR3's 2 with 170K+ 1 over 210k. All start just fine. Maintenance is king.
I have never understood the brake light bulb story. None of mine are OEM bulbs all are whatever was on the shelf at the autoparts store when I found I had one out. Heck one time I grabbed the wrong bulbs. It plugged in but didn't work properly (think it was a backup or turn signal light bulb). Truck was normal no issues whatsoever. Thought about ordering some cheap knock off led bulbs just to see if it would freak out.
I like the Lexus it's nice truck, extremely capable but it doesn't have the personality of the LR.

I meant to quote this "Stating that things "leak a lot" to me is over-stated. They leak, you fix 'em it's easy and it's done.
Pleasantly surprised when it starts? That's horse****.
The rest of your post is fine."
I have to laugh a little. I actually thought pagoda's response was pretty spot on (given some flexibility for each owner's experience). I do really enjoy the LR3. REALLY enjoy it but until I sorted out the cowl leak issue and water ingress into the control module on the firewall, it would so randomly not start - it drove me mad. So every time I turned the key I said a quiet prayer to the LR gods
It's been a couple of years since I corrected that but I can truly appreciate his response on that and I COMPLETELY agree that I've felt the same way in the past.
Having said that - it was worth sorting out because I do think the rig is pretty incredible.
