SOLD!
I really don't need two of these and a Discovery on my drive so I need to part with one. It's listed on eBay here: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/204285012479
I'll copy the advert below but the main bit you're interested in is "How much?" I've put it up at £5250 but I need to get out of it so if it goes on here to a member, I'll start off at £4800. It's not perfect of course and at this money I'm still making a loss but that's life, not every gamble pays off!

2008 Range Rover Vogue SE
148k miles
MOT until September 2023
3.6L TDV8
In full disclosure, I bought this car in October and then immediately got the option to buy a facelift one at a really good price so it had always been my intention to sell it on. Typically, it has taken me some time to get around to that but I have done a lot of work on it to get it to where it is now. A friend of mine had borrowed it and so it's registered in his name as he was going to sell it on but it developed a coolant leak and so he took it to a local "Specialist" who basically tried to rip us off even stating that it needed new front brakes (which were two weeks old at the time and hadn't done 1000 miles). After that debacle, I collected the car and having fitted a nice new OEM Land Rover coolant pipe set today all is good again but the car is now back with me and my stupid fleet of vehicles that I am trying to reduce. Now that nausea is out of the way, let's get to the car itself.
It's a Range topping Range Rover being the Vogue SE and has a good spec:
As you can see, a fair bit has been done to try and ensure the longevity of this car and with this in mind, I think the price is reasonable as there are so many that will be around this price and still need this work to be carried out. I'm listing the car at basically what it owes me without taking into account the hours that I have put in or the cost of collecting it from Cornwall and the 727 mile round trip.
I currently have in my fleet, two of these and a Discovery 4 as well as a couple of other cars and bikes so ideally I really am looking to simply sell this one. Having said that, I really want another BMW so I'd be interested in talking to you about a PX with your E34/E36/E38/E39 and I could also really do with a car transporter trailer so again, there is a potential for a deal somewhere (I guess I just can't learn!).
