It's a tank in disguise!

Pros:
I love my Rover! I wasn't quite ready to jump into the more luxurious Range Rover so I opted for the smaller (and far more affordable) LR2. This thing is a tank. Luckily I've never been in a serious accident (one small fender bender) but I'm confident that I would be protected. I've never met a puddle, hill, rock, tree, sidewalk, or other obstacle that I couldn't get over. It will go anywhere. The driver sits higher than in most other SUVs which I really like. I have never had any issues with maintenance or reliability.
Cons:
My only complaints are gas mileage and acceleration. The car is so incredibly heavy (over 4,000 pounds) that with under 300 horsepower it underperforms compared to other SUVs in the same class. That said, more horsepower would equal even lower gas mileage and at 16-17 city I'm not willing to make the horsepower/mpg trade.
Overall review:
The biggest compliment that I can give is that I would buy another one tomorrow.
