Turns out that one has also had the pump and belt done already and has full LR service history. Learned to drive in 2011.

It looks as if it stands a very good chance of being a good reliable runner with it's LR service history, warranty, and low mileage.

If you haven't already looked at it, make a trip to see it asap, and if you like the way it drives and looks, you have found your future transport.

Good Luck.

If you are faced with lots of unlit lanes to drive at night, have some spotlights fitted, a good car will be worth it. FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011)

Did it.

Late 2014 SE Tech SD4 auto. Full LR service history and a good 12 month warranty plus a very good trade in price for my Outlander. Had timing belt done (cost approx £800 on the invoice so I’m hoping water pump was done as well).

Lovely drive. Learned to drive in 2011.

The sill injections sound a bit invasive though! I may ask for that to be done at the same time though as the car has clearly been treated very well by the previous owners so would be a shame to stop that now.

Am booking it in with my indie to get the auto box and Haldex flushed and serviced as a bit of preventative maintenance. Learned to drive in 2011.

Thank you. It’s nice to be back in a slightly more refined yet still slightly agricultural vehicle 😂

Miss Apple Car Play but I have to say the Bluetooth integration is fine and it picks up my iPhone as an iPod when connected to USB so can play and control music that way too.

Won’t lie though, I’m off to Halfords to get some Nightbreakers 😂😂 Learned to drive in 2011.
