Hi Piddler,
            "You only pass this way but once", The klms are right, price appears right for the year and model.  It is a bit of a one off and maybe won't be to everybodies taste, resale might be a challenge later on.
Looks the part, could well be very functional, Maybe air bag compliance, how the winch is mounted............legality of it,  looking on the why not side.  On the why yes side the vehcle does look very neat ad tidy, might ask for an engine shot.  Personally I like the RRS, especially the V8 in any configuration, be intersting to see what the mods have done to the fuel consumption, and does that bother you?  If not start bidding see where you get to, decide on a limit and stick to it.
Good luck.
Cheers Marty

Height rods mean the air pressure in the airsprings is at offroad height pressures at std height setting. If you have driven a d3/rrs at offroad height you'll be a little disappointed with the harder ride. Although those tyres ought to make up for it with the sidewall height...
Looks un abused so could be a good buy!

I thought it was a good buy as the v8 supposed to be a good one.
Decided too modified really, who wants to drive aound on offorad mode.
I just want a supercharged one for road use and will do something else for off road. Definitely going the standard supercharged route.

While the 4.2SC would be amazing at 291kw, the 4.4 is no slouch at 225kw. My tdv8 pumps out 200kw and is the most sporty car I've owned. 
The above RRS looks in good nic, but has clearly been set up for serious off road work. You could take out the rods and go back to standard and fit Lliams for when you need some height. You might need different tyres at standard height.
