Hi, i'm new to the forum and new to range rovers :)

I've done a lot of research and thought it was time to ask some questions to some real RR owners/enthusiasts.

I'm looking to buy a 4wd. Budget is $60k.

I've looked at one today - RR Sport Supercharged, 22" stormers, has all options etc. Has about 90 000k's on the clock and is a 2005 MY06. (What are the 2005 models like?)

Good condition paint wise, interior etc.

Though when i did drive it, i played around with the Air Susp as i hear they can be faulty at times and noticed a lot of squeeks/creaks and noises when it was going up and done. Could that be the bushes?

Also the other thing i noticed was going up hill with slight throttle it sounded like there were faint marbles in a can.. Is that normal? I would've been doing about 40-50km/h going up a steep road hill.

I'm just looking for something reliable, strictly a city driver and will never see off road, i have money for maintenance and repairs if need be, but i'd prefer to stay away from major problems like driveline (diff, engine, transmission etc).

Would be great to hear what you guys have to say :)

Thanks
