RRS 4.4 TDV8 Potential Purchase

My Dad has been browsing the Land Rover Approved Used website recently looking for a Range Rover and unfortunately the bug has bitten me!

I've started looking quite seriously at the RRS 4.4 TDV8 Autobiography Dynamic. I've had a Supercharged L322 before and traded it in when I bought my XFR but am looking for something comfier and more useful all year round then the XFR.

The one I've found is Firenze Red, with black leather. It seems to be quite nicely spec'd but I've no idea what was optional on these. It does have the deployable tow bar which is great as it saves me £3k!

This is the one I'm thinking about:

The car is just over 4 years old with 30k miles on it so it should be ok I hope. However, are there any common problems on these? Is the 4.4 well suited to the Sport?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I don't know if that is a 14 or 15MY but if anyone has a brochure for either that they could send me I'd be grateful.

Thanks,

Nice looking car!

Was OY a JLR reg at all? I know OV and OE were. Would want to know if the first year of its life as a JLR fleet car was a hard one or not if it was !!

This one is (I think) a 16MY so will be Euro6 and has done half the miles;

I like the light bits of the interior on that car but am not keen on another black car due to them being so high maintenance to keep swirl free and looking good.

There's no mention of a tow bar on that car either which adds a few quid to the cost of the other one.

I thought the OY reg was LR UK but according to the salesman it's a 1 previous private owner car.

I hadn't considered Euro5 v Euro6. Maybe it'd be wise to look for one a year newer, although, in Scotland we've not got many issues with LEZ's yet.
