Wayy too much.

You'd be better to buy a stndard HSE and facelifting it like mine tbh.

That is what im currently looking at Thanks,
Waldo

that is a very nice 2008 AB upgrade ! Recently bought a 2007 RRS HSE TDV6 for a Pimp-My-Ride-Project.
DONE: Meduza front bumper, AB rear bumper, AB tailpipes, calipers repainted, rear upper tailgate upgrade, side steps, AB front grille, AB side vents, rear LED lights, clear side repeaters, integrated daytime running lights, LED headlights.
TO DO: color code sills and pillars.

Out of interest then chaps. Do you also think the RRS's that are in the 50k region with a Khan or Overfinch bolt on....Are they also subject to devaluing the vehicle. Just wondering as there does seem to be a premium on these motors.

Thank goodness you didn't buy the white 2.7 "Revere by Halfords" special for 23k.

This TDV8 looks much better but I still think its about 3gs too much money. Try to bargain and put the 3k in the bank for a turbo replacement! Get the car thoroughly checked mate, especially anything around the turbo area. Gone - 2008 Stornoway Grey RRS 2.7 TDV6
Gone - 2009 Buckingham Blue RRS 2.7 TDV6
Gone - 2010 Alaska White RRS 5.0 V8 Aspirated
Gone - 2017 Chawton White RRS 5.0 V8 Supercharged
Current - 2010 Java Black RRS 5.0 V8 Aspirated
Current- 2024 RRS P400 SE Dynamic

23k!

You could get a nice TDV8 for that sort of money! 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Yeah, thats what im thinking! TDv8 or even a TDv6! Thanks,
Waldo

When you read replacement engine is £9-12k and turbos £3k each you need FSH and a iron clad warranty - I would buy from a LR dealer with 12 months approved warranty every time  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

A partial service history is a "walk away now" issue, IMO.

For the money he's asking for the modded TDV8, you can find nice clean, fully serviced examples with a Land Rover warranty.

For example: http://www.usedvehicles.landrover.co.uk/search#/details/2210211

You can but choose carefully and if it's not got fsh they may blame this if you claim

You can get lr warranty but they will charge for inspection if previous warranty expired and again fsh may be problem

Fsh would be required by me  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW
