Nice.
Yup, I’m 5k miles in and love it more every time I drive it.
Best vehicle I’ve ever driven/owned.

Actually to turn off climate. You press the fan button and turn the dial all the way to the left. One little shortcut ive learned ☺️

Also the top right button above the right dial, is a shortcut that takes you to the climate screen

Your observation on the door lock buttons made me laugh, mainly because so many new cars come with them, and I remember one of my clients had a CLS 550 with those same buttons... and it was a 2007! Nothing like a new car with more than 17 year old technology. Plus, the CLS buttons were only for locking the doors. There was a button the length of the handle on the inner part that unlocked the doors just before you pulled them open. At least the LR has buttons on all the doors.

I just traded in a Jeep 4xe yesterday for a very lightly used Defender 110 P400 SE. While I really loved the jeep, the constant recalls and lack of service at dealerships with super long waits for appointments, it was time for a change. I bought from a Land Rover Dealer with a 5 year 100, 000 mile warranty that even covers the air suspension system. The Defender is a really nice upgrade from the jeep.

How do you look at its reliability reputation which is a concern for these cars and maintenance cost which are huge given its luxury name? Is it worth owning or are you leasing ?

Do like the vehicle very. Good Review. But, with what I would want the vehicle to have, it would be around the $70 range. Bit too much for me.

If you want to buy something that looks offroad but you can't take offroad. Buy a new defender.
