What to look for on a 60k mile Vogue TDV8

[Mefster]

After selling our Cayenne we've decided on replacing it with a Range Rover Vogue TDV8, ideally around a 2009 car. The majority of cars we are looking at have 50-60k miles on the clock.

I was aware of the things to watch out for with the Cayenne, but was wondering what jobs are likely to need to be done on a FFRR TDV8. Are there any bigger expenses at the 60k service? Any suspension or engine issues to watch out for? There are plenty of cars around, but previous experience shows that paying a little more for a car that has had the jobs done a a better option than buying cheap and getting stung with bigger bills!

Hi there, my parents are about to put theirs up for sale! Pretty sure it's a 59 reg. It's a TDV8 Vogue . Lower mileage than your looking at! Full LRSH!

Tbh it's been bomb proof! Only changing as been offered the new model!

I've been trying to PM you but keep getting an error message!

Very interested if you could PM me any details.

Thanks!

Can't seem to PM you!

It's a 10 reg. 34k miles!

Let me know if interested and I'll sort you pics and phone no out!

Just tried to PM you again.

Same error!

DorisMk2: still drawing a blank on the PM front.

The car sounds great but I'm guessing with the age/mileage they'll be looking for more than the £30k ceiling we've crept up to...

[DorisMk2]

They've been offered more than that trade! What I would say is that its immaculate! You'd struggle to find cleaner!

Mefster - I think your budget is about right! I'm guessing there will also be plenty of cars coming onto the market as the trade-ins for the new shape RR ramp up over the next few months, too.
