Unmatched ditch-cheap tyres isn't a great start. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

United Kingdom 

The older a car gets the more I prefer factory original (“honest”?) examples. My first thought is how many owners it has and what the history looks like. All you need is love, or a history thereof. L405 P400e Autobiography (MY2020)... Silicon Silver / Espresso
RRS TDV6 HSE Lux (MY2011)... Nara Bronze / Arabica - now gone!

I agree with RRSTDV8 about tyres if they are matching then the chances are the owner looked after it and yes they can cost you a lot in repairs as it is an older car but that is i think the best engine and most reliable one to buy i have had mine over a year and have not spent a fortune on it so as always you get good one's and bad one's but in picture 4 it look's like the EML light is on Thumbs Up

Photo 19 is an odd angle too. Almost as if they are trying to hide the instruments / EML light? 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed
