L494 SDV6 dynamic MY2014, just under 275K, it's had inlet manifolds and an alternator. Normal wear and tear items, probably 6 sets of discs all round and 12 sets of pads. Rear AC pipes went about 2 years ago, but that's an age related thing rather than mileage.

The engine does have a reputation for snapping the crank but it's realistically not as common as internet forums make it appear. Yes, it happens, but when one considers the number of V6 diesels that LR have sold over the years, it's really not that common an issue. The majority of L494 are V6 diesels and LR were selling 50k a year of them, and plenty more in the L320 before that (not forgetting the Discos and FFRR that also had the same engine). So you can see that the numbers are in your favour in terms of crank issues.

Oil change is annual anyway. Service intervals are mileage OR time, whichever is first. Far too many LRs out there with so-called "FLRSH" but are actually short of services.

Timing belt should have been done at 7 years. Have you checked the online service history for it? |

Lot of car for £15K. 115K miles isn’t a lot in my book |
