I agree with Ted, The BMW is the best on your list followed by the Volvo. Cant imagine how the Discovery made it onto your list. Looking good does not change the fact that Land Rover as a company sits at the very bottom of JD Powers reliability rankings, like the one answer said, its a money pit.

There is so much more to cars than 0-60 times. Enzo is an all carbon construction, uses lots of F-1 technology, has a Ferrari V-12, top speed of 217 mph, etc, etc, only 399 made, a used one is well over a million dollars.

Both GM and Ford have hybrid models out now, in the nest 3 years or so every manufacturer will be in this segment. One thing is for certain, with the end of the recession, high oil prices will come back, no auto maker can afford to ignore this segment.

Connection to your battery is poor and need to be cleaned, the battery is discharged or the new battery is defective.

The Equinox looks better, but why pick two of the worst vehicles in the small SUV segment. I would go with the Subaru Forrester, Toyota Rav4, Nissan Rouge, Honda CRV, before your two picks.

Mercedes 2 door 2 seat convertible, likely a SLK.

The Patriot and Compass are nothing more than restyled Dodge Calibers. These vehicles can be a good buy for the money but refinement and quality wise they are not up to par with the Japanese or even current domestic Ford and GM offerings.

In 1995 the Laredo was available with the 4.0 L straight six or the 5.2 L V-8, the Limited had more options and leather seats with the V-8. The eight cylinder models came only with the full time four wheel drive. Other than that, mechanically both models were the same.

The battery gauge is somewhat misleading, it measures the health of your charging system, NOT the battery. Yes, check the alternator and all charging related stuff.

Driving a hummer you may not be aware of a feature many cars have, its called HANDLING. Honda S2000 is a very nicely balanced car with razor sharp reflexes. By the way the H2 does 0-60 in 8.4 seconds and the S2000 does it in 5.4 seconds, that's called power to weight ratio.

Broken timing belt? Get it diagnosed instead of replacing parts based on wild guesses.

Replace it with a 5.9 L engine, straight bolt on. The 5.9L was an option in 1998.
