Deep pockets or a good level of DIY mechanical and electronic skills needed.

Thanks for the input
I have had a good experience with a really rusted out 91 and now have a 92
That didn’t run when I got it
I think after 10 years I might have developed a few skills
And DIY is my kinda thing

Deep pockets are a state of mind
So is that a thumbs down

It will be steep learning curve they are a different animal to what you have. A well looked after one will be good, but there is always niggles to work on even the good RRs.

Thanks
It’s the steep learning curve is what I need.
And they do look good.
I have looked at a few and I am cautiously
Wading into it
I just figured I could get some good input on this idea from you guys

Shame the search bar isn't working, as there seems to have been a few sports coming in with issues recently. You could try googling with something like 'landyzone.co.uk range rover sport issues' and have a read of all the threads that come up.

get a 2006+ for the Jag powered L322 which is the only one i'd touch..

The earlier ones are made of cheese.

But as said above you need a good understanding of electronics and the patience of a Saint.
