To preface this… I just had an accident that totaled out my fully loaded 2010 Ford Edge that I loved with all my heart. I’ve always wanted a Land Rover or Range Rover but ive heard horror stories about repairs and issues.

I needed a car quickly and shopped around a lot. I needed something under $17k (for the time being) and wanted features plus under 100k miles. I drove a 2016 Land Rover Discovery Sport HSE and loved it immediately. It’s well taken care of, spotless, and had everything I wanted and more. Not to mention including lane monitoring and collision avoidance. It has 90,000 miles on it, serviced religiously by the prior two owners, and was 16k which seems around average for these.

Now initially I had second thoughts but it seems most people with this specific model have really enjoyed the suv and say it’s reliable. I also took the religious maintenance into account for how it’s been taken care of. So my big question….is this going to be a story of love or regret? I will not finalize everything and pick it up until Monday. I’ve signed paperwork and it may be too late but I’m just wanting opinions. I know I probably need to keep a few thousand for a rainy day with this vehicle regardless.

Also any tips and tricks as far as this vehicle goes? Like features I may overlook or hidden things? Lastly, the prior owner had the lane assist and other features off. There is also no sound coming from them when I cut them on in my brief test drive. How do I turn everything on and get the notifications/beeps to work?

Thank you in advance!
