2011 Range Rover Sport HSE or X6?

Looking to purchase an additional vehicle. Any thoughts on a 2011 Range Rover Sport HSE (Lux) or X6?

If you are looking for a real 4WD then it's the range rover.

I love the HSE, but in the past they have been riddled with so many problems that I would not buy one. I've read way too many nightmare stories about them.

True that for both RR and RR sport. Nice looking cars though

What model X6?
I researched both at the end of last year before going with the X6M. But it really depends on what you are going to use it for and how practical you need it to be.

As much as I like the X6, for my family and I, the X5 was more practical. The X6 lacks the cargo space. If you don't need it, go for the X6

I think if you need to crawl over boulders or go ruffing it off road then RR or Jeep,
If you need to make high speed maneuvers then X6.
