Is this too much mileage for consideration?.....

http://www.ak-performance.co.uk/used-cars/...1128648993

It has a recent cambelt change and turbos replaced with FLRSH ...

What do you guys think?

Its in very good shape, doesn't look like its done half the miles!

To be honest, i have always gone for the high(ish) milers like this one, because they will more than likely already had the major mechanical work repaired on them as appose to a low miler.

I think you should go for it!

oh, you can also check the MOT history of any vehicle online somewhere as well... that should give you a clear indication on what has and hasnt been fixed already.

Yes i agree, one which is just under the 100k mark will atleast need to cambelt changing, this one has had that done and both turbos.

Might be a silly question, but is the red grill lining at the front 'normal' ?

The mileage is not an issue in itself, but it is high for the age. Absolutely essential that the transmission has been serviced (ideally, I'd be looking for it to have been done twice at that mileage). Perhaps a little steeply priced. Thumbs Up Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

I would also read the small print of the 5* warranty that is being offered. Wink

Guess thats with any 3rd party warranty though? The dealer seems decent, has some very top end cars for sale.

Take a look at the range rovers these guys keep in...

http://www.junction17cars.co.uk/used-cars/land-rover/

i would say reasonably priced, and very good looking ones on here.

There are 6 or 7 they have around the same price as the one you are looking at, with lower miles (by alot) newer age, and personally i think alot better to look at.

Worth a browse! - and they deliver also

Thanks for that mate. I had a quick look at the majority of the ones they have are pre 2010 so they do not have the updated interior.

I think the one on my original post looks the business's due to it having the autobiography look and the onyx wheels.

What kind of figure would you guys say that car is worth ?
