Newbie advice.

Hi,
Originally signed up about 3 years ago as my son had a 2006 4.2 Sport and i got job of changing alternator so came here for advice.
I myself. have a 2006 4.6 litre Mustang which i love but have now got the itch for a RRS!
I am looking at a Stornaway Grey, Dec' 2012 3.0 TDV6.
It has full Autobiography body kit and 22" Olympus alloys, 360 degree camera, black nappa leather, tints, and piano black interior trim. Mileage is 90000 with full service history and seller is private. He is asking £19950.00.
Can anybody offer any opinions on this and give me any advice on what to ask seller/check for?

Many thanks in advance,

Gary.

Check

For any screeching noises when using the Electronic Park Brake (EPH) could be a sign of seizing.

Check all brake pads front and back to see if they are worn evenly, could indicate stuck pistons (backs appear to be a main issue).

Check if the ride sounds bumpy over uneven potholed roads (could be a sign of worn Anti Rollbar Bushes (ARB's)

I think the Autobiography has ACE anti rollbars front and back. If you can get underneath check for leaks. rear cost £1982 at dealer recently (luckily under warranty)

Usual Tyrewear and cracks in alloys which can be an issue on 22's. Check all electrics work and no warning messages and most of all take for a good drive 30mins plus if possible, short runs may hide issues if they want you to drive around the block then I would walk away
