2010 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Ipanema Sand

"At approximately 80,000 miles the car was fitted with a brand new engine under warranty as RR couldn’t fix the fault ..."

I wonder if his reputation and career had anything to do with that.

I had an email exchange with the seller.

The story of the new engine is that it overheated and LR couldn't fix it, so they changed the whole engine and other ancillaries. Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue
Had- 2008 TDV8 Vogue SE in Java black
Had - 2007 S/C in Stornoway Grey

Get it inspected.

I can't recall ever hearing of a SC having a whole engine replaced but I could be wrong. Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

I was offered that trade. I am too suspicious of new engines in newish cars though.

So if not being sold trade (advert says "private seller"), how many keepers has it actually had and who's selling it now... i.e how long have they had it (new engine at 80k, 15k miles since travelled = 95k) and why are they selling it?
