The Mrs has been carefully brought round to the idea of a range rover rather than a Nissan Quashqai, but she has settled no further than an evoque. I have tried to coax her into a proper RR and a Discovery 4 but she does like the Evoque.

Apart from not having a transfer box, what are they like with a bit of gentle off roading? I have my series 3 which suffices for my slower, more leisurely driving and greenlaning. We will be shortly buying a small holding for her horses so maybe a bit of driving through horsey showgrounds and maybe up the field when it's wet it will be used as a daily driver.

So, yay or "neigh"?
 
Once upon a time LR made vehicles capable of of pulling horse boxes, the new RR and Discovery just look a bit too Japanese and have been build for the mum that likes to park on the zebra whilst dropping the rug rats off IMHO. This is a shame as I'm int meerkat myself for a new lux 4x4. Good luck with the decision, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
 
AAAAARRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH.....

NO NO NO NO NO NO..... I WILL NOT POST ANYTHING TO THIS THREAD, I WILL NOT POST ANYTHING TO THIS THREAD......

LA LA LA LA LA LA.......NOT LISTENING.....LA LA LA LA LA LA LA

I FECKING HATE THE EJOKE......NO, STOP OR ELSE I WILL GO ON ANOTHER RANT.....

Look up a thread from a few weeks back where someone asked about the Ejoke and my replies....
 
joking aside, she does want one....

I want a proper range rover but she won't budge at the moment, what other 4x4s are there out there that would fit the bill?
the replies so far have helped me but has anyone actually driven one?
 
Say yay, after your series even you will enjoy it, they're fine through muddy gateways and across fields, and you get to stay happily married
 
Have driven one.

They are tiny inside with very little legroom at the rear. Not particularly comfortable and for the money there are better alternatives!

Ok, so next plan, how do I convince the missus that she wants a range rover?
