I've listed the vehicle on eBay also and you can find the listing here.
Range Rover 4.0 V8 petrol/LPG | eBay
The car is taxed until the end of April and has MOT until the 23rd of March of next year.
The car breezed its MOT and its only advisories were for slightly corroded brake lines and the front brake pads nearing their limit.
I can't tell you all that much about Range Rovers as i only know the basics of cars in general.
I will be as honest as i can be and will tell you all that i know to be wrong with the car.
BAD POINTS
LPG is in need of a service as it sometimes will cut out at junctions but works when driving along motorways and will tick over without issue when started on gas.
There are a couple of dents on the body work which were there when i bought it. Not sure of the cause of them but with the age and mileage i still think its ok.
Drivers seat bolster has a bit of wear but for a car of this mileage is pretty much normal.
The air intake box has a couple of splits in it under the filter. I've tried to glue it but it has split from those same cracks. Cheap to replace.
Drivers side electric mirror needs the motor assembly. Not sure why it is missing but i am actively trying to source one locally.
Some of the lighting to indicate which button has been pressed on the heater control panel aren't working but all of the buttons bar three still work.
AC needs to be recharged.
Missing the bottle jack and spare wheel.
GOOD POINTS
Head gaskets replaced (10th April 2014) with the heads de-carbed, skimmed, valves lapped and stem seals replaced.
New thermostat and fan belt (30/04/2014)
New water pump installed on Tuesday (06/05/2014)
Drivers door locking mechanism changed in March due to the old one sticking.
Starts on the first turn of the key everytime without fail.
Single point LPG system means it can be started on LPG instead of having to wait for the engine/gas system to warm up.
Air suspension is fully working giving a smooth ride.
Full Leather interior. Seats are rip and tear free.
No sagging headlining.
Vehicle has side steps which also match the bodywork of the car
Pulls like a train and is very smooth.
Auto box for that lazy driving
Towbar and electrics
Tinted windows from the rear quarter back.
Clear indicators to bring it up to that more modern look.
LPG tank in the spare wheel well.
Tons of tread on the tyres all round
Solid bodywork and no under-body rot
Heated front seats
Heated front and rear screens
Electric windows all round
Taxed until the end of October 2014 and MOT until the 23rd of March 2015 so it can be driven straight away
Two sets of keys with remote fobs.
Most of the bad points are a days work over a weekend at most.
It is a very nice car, drives brilliantly and is a real presence on the road.
I will be sad to see it go but the car was an impulse buy, and i would like to go back to something with a bit of power but is also practical as a family car.
Mileage is actually closer to 172000 but will climb as its used daily. Hence me advertising it as 173000
I'm asking £2200 for it which but i am open to sensible offers.
However and i would be willing to accept an offer of £1700 and an Xbox One, PS4 (with or without games), or iPad Air (with warranty) as part of a deal.
Any questions then feel free to ask and i will respond as soon as possible.
