Their electrics have been shit for years. They should just fold up now and save themselves the aggravation.

All I can say is that when I had my F-Type, I was very pleased with it. No problems whatsoever and a very sharp looking car. My Range Rover Evoque had few problems and nothing out of the ordinary. I'd have another one in a heartbeat. My son is driving it now and besides about $4000 worth of normal work at 100K miles, it's still going strong and he loves it.

In fact, when my Benz is ready to be traded in a few years, I'll probably go back to another Range Rover SUV...maybe the Velar or the Sport SVR.
