Back-up ko si Subaru Forester just in case talagang sirain base sa mga sasabihin nyo. Also lakas maka Yoon Se-ri. Is there a legit Range Rover owners here and can you share inputs what happened after 1 year or after 50,000 may naging major issue na sa sasakyan nyo? I own 5 cars and NONE of them nagkaroon ng major issue or tumirik even at 100,000km. Ni di ko pa nakitang umilaw Check engine indicator sa mga sasakyan ko. Kinakatakot ko kasi baka itirik ako sa bundok at baka maya't maya check engine gaya ng nabasa ko na kakalabas lang sa Casa at 1 day pa lang humina na humatak Rover nya. May nabasa rin ako na sa almost every Check engine ang mga Rovers. Kindly enlighten me. Iba kasi ung manggagaling sa Legit Range Rover owners. Honest to goodness pa share ng mga bad experience nyo sa sasakyan. For Long term everyday use with slight offroading.
    We had a lot of issues with a 2017 Evoque. Had a defective module after a few months, may pumapasok na tubig sa loob pag umuulan, experienced also the check engine light.

    Ang sama pa ng response ng old dealer. So far maganda after sales ng new dealer. But generally I think it is the car.

    But overall, we cannot recommend it. Unless the new model is better.

    I will go with the advice of the others specially if offroading mo gagamitin.

    How about that? 3 door v6 Pajero 2021. 3M.

    Will last forever. Proven Paris Dakar winner.

    A little long in the tooth but all reliability issues sorted out.

    Can't fit a portable ref sa likod maliit. That's why wala si listahan ko si Jimny. Anyway thanks sa mga suggestion nyo. Highly appreciated and pinapanood ko sa youtube mga kotse na sinusuggest nyo.

    FJ is too big with outdated interior.

    Get the John Cooper works Mini Cooper Countryman . Its 305 HP. ALL wheel drive. A true fire cracker, head turner and smile generator. As big as the evoque.

    4.5m but i think there is a small discount. And unlike the Evoque...this one is a real head turner.

    Evoque...is the entry level range rover.

    Countryman John Cooper Works is the top dog, apex predator Mini cooper.

    The FJ is not too big. It's barely even wider than the Range Rover you were looking at. The length is similar to most crossovers.

    Agree with interior, but since its geared towards off-roading than luxury, a plain old school interior seems tolerable and would probably be more resistant to wear.

    How about the Jeep Wrangler Sport? I think it’s around 3.5M to 4M. It is powered by a 2.0L turbo gas engine. Wranglers do come standard with a 4WD transfer case.

    The FJ Cruiser is big. It is about as wide as the standard Range Rover. TS is more looking for something smaller like the Range Rover Evoque which is smaller than a CRV or Forester.

    Range Rover Evoque vs FJ Cruiser's dimensions. Evoque is wider than the FJ but the FJ is longer by more than 300mm only. It's up to TC if he considers 300mm or so big since he's also looking for cars which are somewhat reliable.

    MINIs & reliable are 2 words that seldom go together. Have worked on some. The gen3s are pure Bimmers now, better than the migraine-inducing gen2s.
