Im looking at a car which is for sale but its got 4 previous owners, demo + 1 and then a company director who put it in his own name. Its got full LRSH but would you be put off being the 5th owner ? How much should I knock off the asking? Also how much more do you think a 2007 57 is worth over a 2007 07...£500? thx for your opinions/advice

First I would get it's warranty history to make sure it wasn't a lemon , and if it's just unusual circumstances that led to so many owners just go by mileage and condition , but still push for something off. I guess it depends how long you intend to keep it. 2008 MY Supercharged

Agreed, find out the dealer names in the service book and call them, ask what work its been in for, although I have found that if dealers do warranty work FOC they don't always keep a record, which is daft.

Multiple owners can be a warning sign and clearly a 1 owner car has its advantages.

I don't think there were any MY changes between an 07 and a 57 plate. Discovery 4 HSE

It's fairly common now for cars to have lots of owners. Prior to buying the FFRR, we had a 1998 BMW convertible which we bought in 2002 and kept for 7 years, but it had had 3 previous owners in the preceding 4 years. The car was fully loaded, all selected by the first owner.
I had my concerns and spoke to my local BMW dealer. He said that there are lots of people who buy a car new, load it up with every option, then when the novelty wears off and they are still paying for it every month, they sell them.
We are the 5th owner of this one and it's been well looked after with full history. I did a trace of the previous owners and they were all company directors and it was resold by LR in 2006 as one of their approved used cars with an extended warranty. I spoke to the original selling dealer, who it turned out, was also the reseller. They checked it out on their computer and reassured me that it hadn't been subejcted to numerous warranty claims etc.
There's a few small chips in the paint here and there, but to be expected and I do suffer with OCD according to friends!

Ours had covered 83k when we bought it, but it drives and feels like new. At first, I was going to get rid of it, but I love it now and I'll probably hold onto it for a couple of years. 2010 MY Vogue SE TDV8 3.6 Stornoway Grey- fully loaded
