Nah. I wouldn’t buy that.
Expensive
And a 2007 defiantly require oil pump change before the engine is knackered

Seems a little strong on the price?

I would have thought around £11k for the year and mileage?

I’d wanted to know when last serviced regardless of mileage and how the history looks. Is it documented or just stamped? And number of previous owners. If it’s a one owner car I would pay a premium. But it probably not because they would have said. If it’s like 5, 6 owners I’d get squeamish.

It’s been doing some serious annual mileage since 2014. 2014 to 2015 was nearly 20k miles... I suspect only serviced annually. But MOT history is fine.

For this total mileage, if history is good and number of owners not scary, I would not walk away, I’d have a good haggle is all. (As long as those awful door mirror caps can be switched one day!)

Note, in winter, used 4x4 demand can spike making deals a little harder when dealers feel confident they can move something. L405 P400e Autobiography (MY2020)... Silicon Silver / Espresso

And warning: some photos on Autotrader show an 04 plate car (perhaps PC04PWC)... maybe it was a cherished number. See 20 of 32. So be cautious that some photos might relate to a different vehicle, so inspect thoroughly. L405 P400e Autobiography (MY2020)... Silicon Silver / Espresso

Some folk put mirror caps on to hide damage of the original caps.

If this is the case a good close look at all body panels and underneath.

Hi,
I would be wanting a 3.0L with those miles for that price 2010.
As said are there receipts for work done, like all the belts (£6-700) which were due about 2 years ago Whistle

Take it for a good test drive then go and try some others Thumbs Up

ps, an SE is hard to find never mind a manual Laughing Porsche Cayenne 2022

Your far enough from London and the S/E to get a very nice car for good money,
if your looking for something sub 15k then you will need to maybe look a bit further a field..

This is a little more what others are expecting to get for the money youur looking to spend...

At the end of the day..its down to what you want to spend and that your happy with what you end up with,

Good Luck.. ===========================================

Hmmmmm........

Good to see that he has spent his time wisely and entered Land Rover ownership after conducting in depth research....🤨

I may be wrong but I do not see this story ending well?
