"I think we should get a dog"...And so it started.

I had an 11 Audi S3 sportback , my wife had a 61 C220 CDI AMG Coupe - neither were really suitable for a dog. Requirements were a high up driving position. A suggestion of a Van was quickly rejected

This is going to be my wife's car for general tip runs/grandkid/dog taxi So both cars were sold in a month, various bit of outstanding finance paid off and as a replacement for her we have this

2014, 34K miles but with FLRSH (higher than avg mileage I know but my wife is at home and does about 5-6K a year so in the long run it's immaterial) and to be honest we plan to keep this until it dies. The fact it still had a years manufacturer warranty left and an offer of 0% finance sealed it for me so I was well happy with the deal I got.

Plans are to swap the LR badges to black ones (don't like the Green), swap the projector halogens to xenons (and get the CCF adjusted) and fit a reversing camera.

Got a question.

Did it come used from a LR dealer ?

If so do they not give this for 2 years as you mention just 1 year warranty ?

Looks like a nice motor and I would not want to get rid of mine. Second hand prices are holding up really well for late models.  FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years

Thanks for the welcome ! As for the part-ex it did seem strange to me, but the lady was doing 17K a year (judging by the service history) so I guess maybe she wanted something more frugal ? Oh well, I'm sure she's happy - I'm VERY happy. Had a longer drive tonight and it's a really nice way to get about.

Found some black badge sets on ebay, any reccomendations or are they all pretty much the same ?

Avoid the black eBay badges! A few members on here have reported them falling apart.
Most of us on here who have black badges have got them from here.
