Hi guys,

As title really. Looking at a 2014 RRS AB 4.4 soon
Its not a main dealer etc but has the standard 3 month warranty.
Anything to look out for, common problems etc?

Cheers!

Take out warranty direct policy for peace of mind

I was thinking that but over £1000 a year.

Yes but rurbo’s a couple of grand if they go air compressor about a grand plus other boys nothing is cheap with these cars so if you can afford that sort of money I think it could be money well spent

Yeah true. Think I will, just incase.
Anything I should look out for when buying, so I know what to expect?

They are only available in Autobiography trim so check all the toys work - being 2014 it won’r Have the Incontrol Touch Pro system that gives a heap of problems. Check the condition of the red Brembo Calipers if it has them - the paint fades badly on them otherwise all the usual Land Rover problems await you! If you can find one with the 1700w Meridian audio it is worth having but don’t pay extra for it - it was a £1700 upgrade when the car was ordered. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Lol the one I am dealing with has the updated Meridian, signature system. Is it any good lol.
I have mobile app for my Merc and to be honest, think I used it once in 2 years lol

It could be the 875 watt it has which Im sure is standard on the AB.

The one I am looking at says "1700w 23 speaker upgrade" how would I know if it actually has that?

You could get the chassis number & put it in Topix,,but that ain’t always right,it says mine has the cooler box but it hasn’t.

The easiest way to tell if it has the reference is to look above the sun visor there is a little speaker just ahead of it on the roof. MY18 SCV8 Satin flux silver

HI Guys,

What is the premium 1700w called in Topix?

All I can find under Vehicle Summary is "BRANDED REFERENCE SOUND (L5)"
