3 star review

I purchased from new, complete with all toys, leather, blacked windows etc. It cost around £22000. Superbly comfortable whilst motorway cruising and easy to drive around town. However taken off road and its a different story. Have been bogged down in mud, it struggled to go up a gentle muddy grassy slope and it struggled in a few inches of snow. Despite being in low ratio, no power is being transferred to the front wheels. I returned to dealer but unfortunately it had changed hands and no longer ’Reekie’ who were great. The dealer found nothing untoward. Unfortunately I do a bit of off road driving during the shooting season and I no longer have any confidence in this motor’s off road ability. I’m now on the lookout for something more suitable, like a scrappy old Ford Maverick which my friend uses without fault.

I purchased my Terracan in May 2005 with 20,000 on the clock from a main dealer. It’s spacious, extremely comfortable, 100%reliable, economical,a pleasure to drive, very well built and superb on tyres. It came with factory supplied Kumho tyres; 35,000 on clock when I had to replaced them the front pair; chose the with same tyres, which were very reasonably priced. Back tyres are still original and now at 40,000 on clock now with still plenty of meat left on them. Wife loves comfort and privacy glass in back and there is plenty of space in the rear for larger items. I drove mercedes prior to this car, no more though,really gone down hill since chrysler bought them. Would I buy another terracan? YES, but at the moment very happy wth the one I’ve got.

You certainly get what you pay for! I got a second hand 2005 last year for under £9000; outstanding value for money. Ride height - excellent, consumption - very reasonable considering the engine size; it looks the part too. The only worry I have is when the UK government start to hammer us 4x4 users for extra road tax. For a government that takes a 75% profit at the pumps and just throws my hard earned tax money at every problem I have serious misgivings. But enjoy this car if you can get one. You’ll feel the difference stepping down from a Land Rover but the savings more than make up for it.

I bought the car after owning a Sante Fe for two years. The Terracan is a lot of motor for the money. A Range Rover it is not but you must consider that you could buy 3 Terracans for the price of a Rangey! It has been a totally reliable, very adaptable car, cruises very comfortably but gets a little noisy once you exceed the legal limit of the British motorway. The ride is a little hard when the vehicle is lightly loaded but that is not a problem when flying up the M6. Overtaking is never a problem - in fact when I last had it serviced the petrol powered courtesy car felt like a slug on sleeping tablets. I am looking to replace mine now with a ............. Terracan! but this time I will go for the autobox and leather options.
