- PLEASE NOTE The photographs of the dashboard have been taken with the ignition on but the engine NOT running. The EML and other lights go out as they should once the vehicle is running.

- Recent new air suspension compressor and reservoir
- Highly specified and equipped with the well-regarded TDV8 engine
The Appeal
Incorporating a clever semi-monocoque design much like the Discovery 3, the L320 Range Rover Sport was optimised for on-road use, while retaining the off-road ability of it’s larger L322 sibling. Unsurprisingly, it proved exceedingly successful from the outset and these first generation Sports are still desirable among JLR enthusiasts.
This 2009 example is highly specified with numerous desirable features including rear passenger infotainment and the well-regarded TDV8 engine. The MOT is free from advisories and runs until 19th May 2025, ensuring this Range Rover is ready to enjoy. The addition of striking aftermarket alloys makes it stand out from its peers, it reportedly drives well and benefits from a recent overhaul of the complex air suspension system.
