Hi,

I'm hoping to pick up a 2006 90 2Dr Hardtop 2.5i Td5 122 County next week

It will have 12m MOT, been well cared for, with 76k miles

I have been offered it for 13k - would you experts say this is a good price?

Impossible to say without seeing it, but certainly that sounds ball park as long as the condition is truly excellent. I would expect a faultless chassis, FSH, undamaged interior and no obvious leaks for that price. Otherwise negotiate down or walk away. Ideally take someone with you who knows LRs and who has a diagnostic tool with them.

An easy way to check is to use autotrader or honestjohn. Both sites will let you know if , based on going rates, it is a low, fair, or high price.

P.s could you maybe take the duplicate pics out of your post, as the size of your pics are a killer for those on tablet/phone. Thanks
 
@henrybrooke I would go over this one with a fine tooth comb. It has failed it's MoT 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016. It also has advisories Oct 2017. So she hasn't really been "well cared for". Shown by the lack of action on front brake pipe, mentioned in 4 different years.
Nice body work might catch the eye, but you have to check the important things.
 
Are the sides panoramic tinted glass or is it a van without side windows? If it is a van rather than a true County, make sure that you understand the implications for insurance (minor) and for the Emissions Zone in London (major issue if you ever move there or even visit). A van is worth slightly less as a private car, so make sure you don't pay County prices.
 
I think I've sorted the picture size - apologies

It's a County on the HPI check so I assume that means it's a true County, hard sides at the moment not panoramic

Autotrader suggests it would fetch 15-16 with a few small improvements and a good bill of health

Yup, it shows up as a County and therefore PLG. Transport For London show no emissions liability for it. :)
If it were listed originally as a commercial vehicle TFL would have charged you £100 a day if you ever traveled inside the M25.
