I have driven the 4 pot F Pace and found it to be a nice car. However once spec’d up you start to go way over the new luxury car tax threshold. I have also read some very bad press regarding the “In Control” and infotainment systems that JLR are using. Many owners have had their cars off the road for extended periods whilst software patches are downloaded only to make matters worse!

JLR is currently having quality control and reliability issues across its entire range. This is why we are leaving the Land Rover side of the business. I’m sorry, but I just refuse to spend large amounts of money on a car that arrives from the factory with numourous faults.
