United Kingdom 2005 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Java Black
Soon to collect 05 range rover sport sc....

Im soom to pick up a range rover sport sc its a 05 but only had one owner im buying from a small dealer picked it up at a good price but im just a bit worried about all the issues i read about on the forum and its got me worrying now lol

The cars a bit up on the miles 90,000 is there anything i should be looking out for before i hand over my hard earned? Any common faults to wtch out for on the supercharged model.

Ive read through the buyers guide but alot seems to apply to the diesel obviously the bodys are the same regardless.

Ive took the car for a little test drive with the dealer it all seemed well but it was only a short test if im honest.

There doing a mini service and undersealing it for me and repairing the wheels so it should be ready soon. Razz

Hi thanks heres a few pictures of the car looks pretty un molested im planning on putting some tints and upgrading the lights n stuff and some side steps though Thumbs Up

So reliability wise its the air suspension i need to pay attention to by the sounds? No sunroof on this one.

Looks good. Getting it from a dealer you should be getting a warranty so try not to worry about things going wrong. Just get out and enjoy it.
