Thanks for your reply guys.

The RR recovery guy just said that yesterday fault is not related to the one in January. This is something to do with the airflow intake, hance he thinks is a leak. Has to be booked in for further analysis.

On the other side, Im realy thinking on selling it, maybe px. Its a nice car, looks stunning outside and in, but too many faults. IMO, a car that breaks down 4 times in 6 months, is not a car worth having. I dont know..

Anyway, thanks for your help guys. Ill try first to talk to the dealership, maybe they get me a good deal on buying it back. Unfortunately, although I knew just like you that the used car market has gone up, seems that not for the RR. Iv tried a few valuations on different websites and it goes in between 25k-28k. Yet, LR is selling a similar one for 35-36. Looks like ill be at a big loss.

I might be going for a kia next, the 7 years warranty attracts me somehow

Yeah I’ve lost count of the times people buy RR and regret it. Beautiful cars but they are just complete nightmares reliability wise. And way too much money for the hassle. Just buy a more reliable brand.

I was going to suggest a Kia/Toyota or a Kia as they come with ad 5 and 7 year warranty. The big Kia, looks great but I've never been in them. Thy have loads of toys and long warranty but as a friend said who moved from a BMW X3 to a Hyundai Santefe, he missed the BMW.

Go for, save a bit of money and I've been in my friend's Santefe se I think it is - I've never seen so many toys in a car and the leather is second to none IMO and the sound system on his se is the best I've heard.

The Santa Fe is relatively expensive, new at least. It’s very nice. As is the Kia Sorrento. But they both start new over £40K which also adds the luxury car VED premium too.

For large 7 seater SUVs you can get the VW group ones considerably cheaper. Tiguan allspace starts at £33K and is lovely. The Skoda Kodiaq which I have on order and ranks right up there is just over £30K start and a high spec under 40 as is the Seat Tarraco.

Thanks!

Actually, Ive booked a test drive for a Kia Niro 4, as my missus said the RR was my option so now she wants the new one to be her option ))). Its just about 30k, a bit smaller, but full of toys and buttons for this price. See how it goes..

Also, iv wrote the letter to RR explaing I would like some sort of compromise with them buying it back. Just waiting now

It’s partly the toys and buttons that make the RR unreliable.

Yet the luxury German brands packed with options aren’t. Nor are the Kia’s, Hyundai’s, etc also loaded with tech….

Aah, fond memories of British built electrics from Lucas, the Prince of Darkness.

Yes, it was always adviseable to carry a bottle of Lucas Smoke for when it leaked out of the wiring!

More posts like this please that will keep me from making a foolish decision in buying a RR, unless I win the lottery.

A million dollars looks inside and outside but the reliability is at the bottom of the car bin.
