2008 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Santorini Black

A key HSE TDV8 upgrade that I wanted was the Brembo brakes which you don't get on the V6.

Your welcome mate - I was in the same position as you in the last couple of months.

Did you ring up the car I linked to ?
It is the only £25k TDV8 I have seen with a decent mileage on it and its a 2008 car.

The only other specialist dealer I know of in Essex is this one http://www.ongarbridge.com/ Proud owner of a 2008 TDV8 HSE.....and an Audi A3 2.0T DSG Cab and a Porsche 911 Turbo (Mercedes W208 320 CLK and Mercedes W124 E220 Estate now gone)

Or if you wanted to buy from a dealer.

This is a nice car I have seen it although not driven it. Safwat cars are just down the road from me I frequent their showroom most weekends! They are a nice guys and always happy to have a chat and take the time to make you feel welcome. My brother in law brought his RRS from them TDV6 acouple of years ago and has been very pleased with it.

I think it has been there for a little while now Wink Whistle Cheers Laurence.

Thanks mate just looked at that but I'm after a black one I know I'm fussy but I don't want to just settle for a car as I said I'm in no rush I'm going to wait for the perfect one for me as £25k is alot of money to me thanks for the link though

I may be wrong, but I think the supercharged model got the perforated leather seats which is a step "up"..

Has yours got the little holes in the seat panels Sherlock? RRS gone

@ V 5LK V - I don't live a million miles away from Saxtons and from friends who i know have gone there, I would steer clear.
As RRS-SPY says, there's the one in Ongar.

I'd widen you search to find the right car to be honest. For the sake of a tank of fuel, you could get both a better car and save yourself some money in the long run. ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
MERCEDES GL350 - Metallic Navy Blue w/Grey interior

GOING: BMW F31 335D MSport+ xDrive Touring
GONE: Land Rover Discovery 4 HSE - Stornaway Grey w/Black Interior (wish we'd kept it Banging Head )
GONE: BMW F10 520D MSport - Carbon Black
GONE:MY12 RRS SDV6 HSE Sumatra/Ivory/Grand Black Privacy glass
