Cheap HSE for someone

Not sure about the colour but not a bad price.

I actually considered that before finding the current XS - but the mileage put me off a bit

Was in the top three for everything else

Should I avoid?

Hello

I have been looking at this HSE.

The dealer is selling on behalf of a friend.

The price appeared too good to be true.

After doing some research online it turns out the car was a CATD repair. The dealer is not declaring this.

The recent MOT had no advisories.

｣10k is a bargain and just wondered what peoples thoughts were and what should have been completed on the car (2009, 70 odd thousand miles)


Thanks all

Chris

Beware of dealers 'selling on behalf of a friend'. You'll have no comeback as it will be deemed a private sale. Ask to deal with the friend directly. They won't let you. It's a get-out.

As above. I like the way that a geunine LR Dealer sticker was added to the rear window to make it look even more authentic.

Dodgier than a dodgy thing that's very dodgy!! Foraging near Gaydon....

Seems genuine.
Contacted repairer who seemed genuine - repaired a year ago
No advisories on MOT
Serviced every year by landrover.
Any advise if I go for it?

its gone now.

if the seller isnt honest, then the car wont be either.

dealer selling for a friend - walk away...

CATD never really bothers me, I have had a few, check the paperwork and repair history
look receipts for genuine parts fitted by a reputable garage. I also get picky over uneaven tyre wear if its a CATD, if thet
are wearing unevenly - walk away
