Funny you should ask. I have that same make and model.
The good
beautiful ride. Very fast handles like a sports car. Good visibility actually a very capable off road vehicle, if you know how to use it. Very torquey will go on the beach if thats your thing.
Is a chick magnet. Women love it from the yuppies to the ghetto rats.

The Bad
VERY EXPENSIVE to maintain. NO Aftermarket parts. All parts are shipped from the UK
Electronics are very tricky with LR3. I have been lucky with the electronics
Sunroofs are weak and will break big flaw in the rollers. I had mine changed twice.
Tires do not last. In the US for the economy replacement is about a grand if you drive with bald tires your alignment will be out in a minute
Tune up is 1400 bucks If you are seriously considering it make sure you have a capable LR mechanic.
DRINKS GAS LIKE A THIRSTY SAILOR. Average 12 mpg city 15 hwy
Brakes do not last.

Land Rover Defender is a great truck. I would buy one of those in a minute.
The Land Cruiser is a much better vehicle for the money.

I got stuck with mine in a divorce and couldnt sell it for sixty percent of the book value. there are much better vehicles for that amount of money
