About to buy my first Range Rover, but this looks wrong..

Hi!
I'm about to buy my first range rover, ive found a few within my local area but this one takes my fancy, i actually work for JLR but i'm a jaguar builder so please forgive my stupidness.

This range is advertised as a highly spec'd 3.6td v6 vouge on a 56 reg with 137k on the clock, however when i look at it, it looks to me (again sorry i might be totally wrong) like a 2003 bodyshell with 2012 guts.

Can anyone advised any further, if i'm totally wrong im sorry but i thought id check first!

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Also as a 3.6ltr diesel it will be a V8 not a V6. The 6 cylinder that was in the L322 was a 3.0ltr straight 6 BMW unit. As Peachy year says it looks right for 2006/2007MY except that it has been retrofitted with the Supercharged V8 version's side intakes and front grille and also Overfinch alloys. Vogue was the "base" model but didn't want for any extras, great comfortable waft mobile! Only draw back with them was the brakes were not up to the capabilities of the car and do take a bit of getting used to. I changed from a 2007 3.6TDv8 RRS to 2010 TDv8 Vogue and it ages to get used to not having the monster sized Brembo brakes that came as standard on the Sport and weren't even an option on the FFRR! 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

Ahhhh okay! I was after a Range Rover sport, I think I have confused myself, I knew there would be a simple explanation.

Thanks both!

England 2005 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Rimini Red

Around that age the sports do look more modern inside than the big range rover.
