This thread is hilarious, so many misconceptions confidently spouted as fact.
People aspire to the Range Rover because it has huge road presence and quality. Look at it next to anything similar in size - its straight classic lines and bulk means it looks king/queen of the road. it is perhaps the number one choice in both Hollywood and British celebrity life, and even the Royals favour it. It has the cache of “default choice, nothing compares” because quite simply, there isn’t anything out there that has its breath of capability and style. The Cayenne is better to drive/sportier, the XC90 is more practical/modern, the X5 has class leading infotainment etc, but the Range Rover is a different level in luxury, yet can traverse terrain those other cars would fall apart in.
We are now however at the stage where no one cares about that stuff - like I said, it’s big, it’s the biggest, it’s famous, and thousands of famous people have one in their garage by default. Kim K has one and the Queen has one; not too many brands we could confidently say that about.
Do I like them?
In it’s current (L405) form, no. Too blingy, lost its way, too wide, not for me.
Do I respect others right to have them?
Of course - however I sympathise with the OP that cheap PCP deals have meant they are now everywhere, and they’re big, so it does tend to inconvenience someone somewhere down the line.
