Thread: D4 Purchase

I know ur all getting sick of this all. Just got back from test driving the 150000k car. It looks and drives like a new car. Never been off road, and no tell tale rocks scratches under the front end. Apart from 1 minor dint that looks like it’s from a shopping centre, it looks brand new.

No it’s not

On strictly private roads I’ve pegged it to the limiter a couple of times.

Not at all, its always good to know. Notice any suspension clunks (if still on its original LCA's- can't remember if you told us that they'd been replaced) ? Im sure you drove it in sport mode and held it in gear. Any oil leaks?

No suspension clunks, smooth gear changes. Didn’t play with manual trans mode. It’s going in to PCB Land Rover on Wednesday to get a pre purchase inspection done. I’m not expecting any issues tho. The current owner has had it for 1 year but her circumstances have changed so it’s being sold. The prior owner got it new & never took it off road.

From a quick glance as all the plastic engine covers were in place, the belt and hoses all look new.

We bought 2013 SDV6 last November with 76k on it. Paid 45k. It is a beautiful car. We’ve just got back from almost 17k of driving since March, just a brilliant superbly comfortable car that pulled our 2.5t van with absolute ease and returned an avg 12.9l/100km.
Our car now has 105k on it, not bad in 7 months hey.
