The difference between trade and retail price on a car is around £3-4000 so you will loose this straight away. Take 3,000 as base price covers your big service which is around 18 months away on your new milage plus quite a few tanks of fuel. this one has already lost money due to higher than average miles, so will any car you buy.
Quite a few over on Disco 3 with over 100k miles no problems.

Have run landrovers the last 12 years and have kept up to 7 years old with no major costs involved, if you ghave a good un then they tend to be good so I would hang on to it.

Thats what the head says what does the heart think Question

Ok, Ok..... it was a short running post, but decision partly made before posting it. I'm going to keep my RRSport. Thumbs Up
It's snowing heavily as I type this, so unsure if I'll be able to get my promised lift to collect her as the journey to Bristol would be in a merc.

I can't wait to drive it again, it's been a very long two weeks. MY12 RRSport 3.0 SDV6 Autobiography

United Kingdom 2007 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Java Black

I agree. I always change mine at the 3rd or 4th anniversary. Not this time. The car is too good to give someone else a bargain. I will be taking the warranty offer when the manufacturers one expires and I plan on running my trusty RRS for another 2 or 3 years. If you see a bandwagon - it's too late.....

Me too. Approaching 45k miles.

I've deliberated changing it. But it's too nice a car to give away, immaculate inside and out. My mileage is high at the moment, but I retire soon and it will be loads less. So might as well keep it and enjoy it. TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone
