• 4 x 4 with a touch of luxury 

• Original condition

• Good history

• Well presented 

Range Rover Sports are a lovely well specced 4 x 4, and are right up there with some of the most luxurious 4 x 4’s of their time. 

This particular model is the Command shift facelift model, and if you are not sure what Command Shift is, it gives you the option of changing gear with the steering wheel mounted paddle shift controls. 

The colour is probably the most striking thing you first notice about this vehicle, and that's before stepping inside to the full leather seats and even a heated steering wheel. 

The Range Rover is one of those vehicles with the looks, comfort, and performance rolled into the perfect 4 x 4.

• V5 is present

• Registered on the 11th September, 2009

• Invoices for servicing and parts used over the years 

• Handbooks present

• Three previous keepers 

The seller of this 2009 Range Rover Sport is a dealer who specialises in modern classics and luxury vehicles. 

He came by this Range Rover Sport from an existing customer he has dealt with since 2016. The returning customer put the Range Rover in part exchange against another classic. 

The seller has replaced the air suspension pump three months ago and has used the vehicle for a family trip to Cornwall, where it didn’t miss a beat. 

• Original interior

• Cream leather

• Reversing camera

• Harman/Kardon speakers

• Everything is reported to work as it should

The inside of the Range Rover Sport is a nice place to be, with comfortable cream leather upholstery and electric everything all within an arm's length. 

The electric seats are working as they should. There is some age related wear to the leather of the front seats, mainly the driver’s side, as you would usually find, but this is in keeping with the age and mileage of the vehicle. 

When you open the door, there is some wear to point out on the edge of the sill, which has been caused by getting in and out of the 2009 4 x 4. The door cards both in the front and rear appear to be free from any noticeable scuffs. The rear seat looks to be in good condition with no excessive wear. 

Sitting in the driver’s seat, the steering wheel is in good condition, with just some light shining on the leather. The multifunction buttons are all reported to be working and have no excessive wear. 

The display is clear and bright, with no warning lights displayed when the engine is running, and the odometer shows a reading of 127,137 miles. Across the dash is the main screen display for the media and controls, and down below the controls for the heaters, all of which are in good order. 

The gear knob has some light scuffs to the top, and further back again is the controls for when you go off-roading. 

The carpets are in good order with no real wear but may benefit from a full valet to bring them back to their best. The headlining is in good order with no sagging. 

The jack is in place in the boot area, covered with the carpeted floor and load liner to protect it. The pull out roller shelf is in good condition and extends and retracts as it should.  

• Stunning Bali Blue colour  

• Original condition

• Refurbished wheels 

• Rear parking sensors

Finished in the beautiful Bali Blue, this 2009 Range Rover Sport certainly stands out from the crowd. 

Starting with the front of the vehicle, there are some age-related stone chips to see. The bonnet looks to align as it should, and the light lenses are in good order with no splits or cracks. Moving up, the windscreen is also free from any chips. 

Around to the sides of the Range Rover, there are no dings to mention when looking down the vehicle. 

There are some small chips and light scratches, which may polish out with a machine polisher, but that would be for your local detailer to decide. The plastic trims at the bottom of the doors are in good condition with no scuffs, and the sill steps are also in good order. 

The chrome capped door mirrors retract as they should and adjust when going into reverse. The windows are free from any excessive scratches, and the seals look to be in good order. 

For security, the quarter sections of the boot area have been tinted, which show no signs of any issues. 

At the rear, there are some small scuffs and chips to the edge of the bumper. The boot lid is in good condition, opening either as a full boot or just the upper glass section, which is also tinted. 

The wheels have been refurbished and are in excellent condition with no scuffs to be seen. They are missing the centre caps, but these are readily available online from several suppliers. The tyres are in good condition with a good amount of tread remaining. 

• 3.0 litre V6 TDI 

• Good history 

• Command Shift / Automatic

• New air suspension pump

Fitted with the 3.0 litre TDV6, the Range Rover is a nice machine to drive, and being the sport model, it sits that little bit lower and so goes around corners that little bit better than the standard height Range Rover. 

The car starts up as it should, with no untoward noises coming from the engine. 

The gear change, as mentioned, is Command Shift which operates like a conventional automatic, or you can change gear with the paddle shifters mounted on the steering wheel. 

Either way, the seller reports the change to be smooth, and the vehicle pulls well through all of the gears. 

The suspension has had a new air pump fitted three months ago, so there are no issues with selecting different suspension settings. No noises are reported to come from either corner, and the Range Rover comes to a halt in a straight line with no juddering through the pedal. 

A nice original condition 2009 Range Rover Sport HSE TDV6 Command Shift, which is the facelift model and in the striking Bali Blue colour, which looks fantastic. 

The car comes with a good history which can be seen in the paperwork. 

Recent wheel refurbishment means these are looking their best, and everything inside is reported to be working as it should.
