Going to test drive tomorrow...

Going to test drive a March 2011 Sport 3.0 tdV6 HSE diesel with 130,000km on it. Thoughts on that model? What specifics should I be asking about? I had a 2009 HSE and will be checking a few things for sure, but want to know what y'alls thoughts are. Thanks!

Ask what the engine warranty includes, the rest of it (provided kids haven't been swarming all over it and there isn't an abundance of moisturising products on the steering wheel) will be fine. TBH if it's made it to 80k miles, it'll probably be fine with the right oil specification and driven up to temperature regularly.

No warranty. It's a 2011 with. 230k km (about 142,000 mi)

So put a big pot of cash to one side for the inevitable problems

If its from a trader, then you have 'warranty' for the first six months. Not so with a private sale.

No commitment on a test drive. Even with a Disco. Nothing wrong with walking away and having a think/sleep on it or even test driving others. Can always go back with cash at a later date if you are infact sure sure. No pressure
