Very quickly skimming those ebay adds, its all about how the vehicle has been maintained in the past - if its had compressor, turbos, regular servicing, etc, then it is better than one with 30k less, and no maintainance. You cant really get a feel for that from the ebay add, so it might be worth calling the owners and seeing what vibe you get. Although another point to consider is that sub-100k, you should be able to get an aftermarket warranty, which seems to be impossible when you pass 120k |

None of those has a correct "full" service history even though they all claim to have. The RRS has a service interval of 15k miles or 12 months, whichever comes first. So vehicles that are 8, 9 or 10 years old should have a 8, 9 or 10 services. Some of the services are 20k miles apart too. All indicative of a lack of care or perhaps being run on a budget. Of course, all are from traders and so you have some protection under law if they break in the early stages of your ownership. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders 2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed |

Yeah I`ve not seen many 4.4`s. I would prefer the SC for obvious reasons ...just wondered if there were any issues. |

Bought my supercharged in march and it still gives me a grin every time i drive it especially with a lot of right foot of the lights it is really only the normal stuff like does the aircon work does the sunroof leak does it run nice and smoothly on tick over do all thye electrics work does it have gas and it does need proper service history but as i said permagrin is a lovely thing |

So...looking at a lot....they vary between 10k and 16 - 17k. Now comparing many from each price range, there doesn`t seem a big difference...only in price and mileage...so why go for one which is 6k more? Confused.com |
