history on this not as good but £4k cheaper?

what do you think, i like the green one but the brown one looks like its being well loved.....

I love a green one but there's no photos of the rear seats! I like the brown one.

both nice cars.
but when you are spending that amount of cash 4k is a drop in the ocean and i would go for the full history car
but the green one is very smart 2012 Vogue 4.4 TDV8 - Current
2014 Navara V6 - Gone
2004 Vogue TD6 - Gone
Grand Cherokee - Gone
Discovery V8 (LPG) - Gone
Discovery TD5 - Gone

I just couldn’t get myself to spend that much on a diesel these days. Both nice cars but the depreciation will be horrendous.

Kaikoura Stone one would be my choice. Green one has budget tyres, and not sure if the wheels are LR or copies 🤔

i really like the green one but the history is not in the same league as they brown one, i like both colours though..... im sort of thinking brown as if i keep the servicing up to date will make easier to sell?

there doesnt seem to be many petrol ones about

Why will depreciation be horrendous? New model about to be launched, which will be as rare as Rocking Horse ****! keeping used L405 prices (artificially) high for some time to come.

Both nice cars and there will always be a market for tidy well serviced & maintained SDV8 Oil Burner

do we think that the petrol is a lot better bet than the diesel from a depreciation perspective ? what do we think that the relative losses would be say over 2 years / 12,000 miles?

ive just a had a quick look and there are a couple of petrol ones about......

+1 on the depreciation not being a killer. L460's are 2 year delivery times at my local MD.

5.0 petrol and the associated running cost might make one a bit depressed over time.

Pity they both have ugly kid glass - what is the obsession with black windows! Green is nice but its a bit dark with the black rims - dare I say a bit van like.

If depreciation is a worry best buy something else  405 AB exec seats Baltic and Cirrus

Remember it's easier to get forgiveness than permission!

Gone in order:

2000 Disco TD5 ES Epsom Green

Diesel is the concern and how it is being treated in more and more cities not just in the UK but around the world. But hey if anyone wants to drop in 2022 that much on a second diesel that is quite old already that is entirely their business. Just sharing my thoughts.

I definitely don’t foresee a nearby future where diesels are desirable.

Who's going to tow all these caravans lol

Once IC engines are not being fitted after 2030 in the UK, Diesels will still be appreciating rare as rocking horse poo!
So keeping mine to 2029 lol and aim to buy the last on the line.

Or might be swayed to buy a Hydrogen 460 if they are in production at that time.  2018 SE SDV8 4.4 Byron Blue

I think the 4.4 Diesel is the best buy, fast enough economical good must be the most sort after what ever they say about Diesels.

Kot, did you just suggest that the diesels are the de facto choice for travellers with caravans 🤣🤣 Oops

am i right in thinking that they became euro6 on the 2016 model so the car tax dropped? so the brown would be higher than £340 per annum?

The advert for the brown one says that the 12 months tax is £585 (229 g/km), so it's Euro 5. 2017 SDV8 Autobiography
