This is a 5 owner car with 125,000 mles on the clock. When considering the fact she’s almost 20 years old, that works out to under 7000 miles a year per owner and based on the Carfax, she’s been well maintained, mostly at Land Rover Dealerships.

There is a report of a minor accident that deployed the airbags about 10 years ago. There is no evidence of that anywhere on the car.

The current owner has probably done the most to her, ordering up a bunch of accessories (listed below) and bringing the SUV into the more modern era by updating and upgrading a lot of little things. All of these listed below.

Fist off, as a Range Rover Sport-Supercharged, she’s putting out quite a bit more HP and torque than a standard RR. The 4.2L puts out nearly 400 of both. She starts right up, idles beautifully and has no engine codes, lights or errors. All systems work as they should.

As a newer Range Rover she’s also loaded with a lot of electrical goodies, too many to get into all of them, but the short list 8 way, power, heated leather seats with memory, heated mirrors, sunroof, heated back seats, also leather, power windows, 2 way/2 part rear lift gate, steering sensitive headlights, adjustable air suspension, DVD rear entertainment system, with multiple ports for inputs and headphones, navigation, bluetooth link, tilt/telescoping steering wheel, AC that blows ice cold, Brembo front brakes, Sport Supercharged only Lugano Teal Metallic paint, tinted windows, AWD but selectable 4WD systems, (Locked center diff, lockable rear diff, terrain select, hill descent, etc), center console with cooler and much more.

Everything operates as it should.

The car runs and drives great and the 125K miles haven’t affected the performance which is 0-60 in less than 7 seconds. Not bad for a nearly 6000 lb SUV.

The interior does show some of the 125K miles, with minor wear on the front seats, little scores and holes in the leather upholstery, as seen in the multiple photos. The Lugano Teal Metallic paint still looks great, especially in the sun, however it too has suffered some of those miles, with touched up nicks and chips in the paint and unfortunately, the clear cost has failed in some spots on the roof.

We feel that the little negative bits are offset by all the additional accessories (front push bar, extra set of wheels, dual fog lamp set up – new in the box with the templates and wiring harness, mudflap set, etc) and upgrades/updates the current owner has done.

Here is what he has done and a full list of what extra stuff comes with the SUV.

Overall in very good condition, great running condition, FAST and LUXURIOUS at the same time and while I wouldn’t really be taking a rig like this into the backwoods, the 4WD system is quite capable.
