The good news is that the Land Rover brand has some cache and I think Tata will eventually sell it. Hopefully to the Germans, again.

Tata is on the ropes right now with Jaguar and LR, and they don't have the resources to invest in electrification to compete. Further, they can barely keep internal combustion vehicles from falling apart. They're going to keep up with the Germans and Japanese on that front? Fireball's chance in you know where.
I have owned 3 Rovers as well, including my current 2018 model. When everything is working there is no other truck I rather have, but you are right there are lots gremlins that I have learned to live with. I am hoping BMW reliability will be far better. I have owned Porsches they have a ton of issues as well.
