Hi folks,

I'm looking at a P400E. The Hybrid fits my driving profile perfectly, only do about 15 miles per day but need the ability to do a few long range trips per year. Overall i do about 7,000 miles per year.

Unfortunately, the one that has caught my eye is based in Edinburgh and i am based in Jersey.

The dealer (not sure if i'm allowed to name on here!) appears to be reputable, 149 reviews on Autotrader with 89% being 5 star and over 50% of their stock is Land Rover, but for some peace of mind i would like to get an independent pre-purchase inspection done.

Does anyone have any experience / recommendations of who to use? Or is the general consensus that they're not worth the paper they're written on?

My main concern would be to make sure the EV side is working perfectly. 2023 P440e SE Dynamic on order -cancelled

2022 HSE Dynamic P400e

2017 Discovery 3.0 HSE Silicon Silver Nimbus interior and a few extra toys SOLD

2013 HSE Black, Orkney Grey, Ebony Seats and Ivory Interior SOLD

2006 HSE

Plus a few other cars inbetween!

I assume that's in relation to the HV heater issue?

Guessing nobody has any experience of using specific companies for Pre-Purchase Inspections?

Yes, also should show a range of 25 to 30 miles.

A lot of hybrid's and electric cars are bought as company cars and often never charged up.
Make sure you get a good warranty provided with it to cover any hidden issues. 2023 P440e SE Dynamic on order -cancelled

Nope, i probably wouldn't bother with inspection if it was at main dealer as would have approved used warranty for peace of mind.

Car i'm looking at is at Calder Motor Co.
