Any particular things to look for when buying a 2005 TDV6 range rover???

 

Inclusive breakdown recovery

 

Bastard, I was waiting for a decent reply and I opened the post to see that!

 

Iv been looking at a discovery 3 and I know air pumps fail every couple of years, actuator bars cease on turbo's and quite a big job labour wise, belts front and rear need doing after 105,000 miles.

 

Make sure it goes up and down and self levels, clonking in the U/Vs, disco lights on dash, auto box leaks

 

Best to have an ask on here mate

Lots of good info

 

Loads ofthings to look for, the above site is very helpful, it persuaded me to walk away from one!!! Suspension pumps to electrical niggles, cambelts at 105k etc....

 

Sorry mate, I couldn't resist

 

Haha no problem, I've always wanted one but I'm also dubious as to how much of a liability it will be!

Thanks for the info and links, I'll have a look!

 

The amount of stick they get on here I can't believe you actually see any on the road

And the HSE SPORT V8 or whatever the top spec petrol version is, seems to be driven by complete wankers

 

Full service history
Condition
Recalls all done
Suspension works etc
Site mentioned above is very helpful

 

Looks like a nice one, that yours?
Btw I was meaning range rovers, as in the bigger one lol. Looks like I've bought one and my mrs and couple of mates are picking it up tomorrow morning since I'm in Bucharest at the moment. I quickly viewed the car before I went away, but I've given them a big list if stuff to double check before they hand over the money. It's 2005 FLRSH 80k on the clock. Will post pics when I get them sent to me.

 

Yep that's mine.
Wife drives it all the time as I have a company car.
She never wants to swap with me lol
How do you mean bigger??
