Update; the 09 car does not have any service history si should I walk away Also seen and driven this car: Land Rover Freelander 2.2 Td4 SE 5dr

TBH How many used car dealers will have any idea about the history of the rear diff?

Well it seems from my finding are the auto is fractionally quicker to 60 However, according to Parkers, fuel consumption is 7mpg worse with the Auto and the auto is £60/year more to tax

I had the 8 speed BMW 5 series, 3.0D 50mpg when driven carefully and 70MPH at 1600rpm :)
