Buying a Range Rover

[batphink]

Hi All

Looking for some advice on what to be wary of when considering a late 90's/early 00's Range Rover 4.6.

Any recommendations or musts (such as FSH/necessary work/replacement parts at certain mileage) would be much appreciated.

Thanks

there is quite a few threads in here that cover a lot of these, see links below.

May be best to have a look at these, then post more specific questions, some of the other guys in here seriously know thier stuff, and definitely pointed me in the right direction.

Your homework, happy readying

Basically, you want to check the following things:

Cooling system
Air Suspension
Cooling System
Chassis corrosion
Cooling system
Air Con flap motors
Cooling system

Expect bits to fall off it or to have already fallen off it. It's what rangerovers do. If you get one with working heated seats then i'd buy several lottery tickets as soon as possible as you've got excellent luck. Oh, and give the cooling system onle last check just in case.

The heated seats never worked in the first place
