The Appeal

The History and Paperwork

• New TDV8 engine fitted in 2016 by Hunters Land Rover Chester as is evidenced in an invoice
• V5C present
• Good MOT history
• Current MOT valid until December 2023 with no advisories
• Three keepers recorded from new
• Serviced in recent years by a friend of the vendor and so there are no invoices for this
• There is a great deal of paperwork present detailing prior work and servicing 

The Interior

• Cream leather with contrasting black piping
• Harman Kardon sound system
• Infotainment screen and switchgear present well and are all in good working order
• Overall, the seats present really well and are exceedingly comfortable
• Heated seats front and rear
• Separate rear climate control
• The leather does of course exhibit some signs of use, but nothing excessive we could see
• Naturally, the driver’s seat displays the most wear with some creasing
• There is some slight discoloration to the centre armrests although the leather is intact
• The vendor points out some wear to the passengers interior door handle
• All of the carpeting remains eminently serviceable and the rubber overmats are a practical feature
• The tough sill plates are in good shape
• A couple of small marks to the headlining nothing that a small valet should not fix and it is otherwise in great shape and well affixed
• Inside the boot, the protective rubber matting is in good condition and underneath, a full-size alloy spare wheel can be found
• entertainment on the vehicle is sat nav & split screen TV for passengers to watch TV when the car is in motion only the driver can't watch. Unless the car is stationary.

The Exterior 

• Smart Aubergine paintwork really suits the car and offsets the cream interior perfectly
• The alloy wheels look great and bear very few blemishes for their age
• Straight bodywork, with no obvious signs of any damage
• All of the badging and light lenses appear in good shape
• Underneath all looks in good order with a light smattering of surface rust on a few components
• All the glass looks smart and the rear windows are tinted
• We couldn't see any damage to the side steps or plastic front mudguard mouldings
• We doubt this Range Rover has seen much off-road use as it is really presentable for its age

The Mechanics 

• 3.6-litre TDV8 engine
• Automatic gearbox
• Engine and ancillaries replaced in 2016 (including the turbochargers)
• The vendor reports a slight leak to the nearside front air suspension unit, causing it to sag once parked for any period of time
• Once underway, the suspension operates exactly as it should and the car rides level
• No running faults to report
• Drives really well, with ample performance and sure-footed four-wheel drive
