2004 Range Rover Vogue Td6 Giverny Green

New Range Rover owner

Hello all

Was on Landyzone but saw this site mentioned numerous times and thought i'd join and say hello. So, Hello!

From Thursday I am to, finally, become a Range Rover owner. WOOHOO!!

I can't wait, despite reading numerous posts here and there about its tendency to swallow money!

Anyway, hopefully i've attached the photos of my RR for you to see!

Thank you all for your greetings.

I am looking to keep my car as original as it was when it left the factory (other than 'original' options). Therefore, I am looking for somewhere that sells original/OEM parts at the lowest price (but not stolen or of dubious heritage). Can anyone recommend anywhere?

Also, whilst the idea of having the car serviced by LR technicians seems like a great idea (I was told the other day that a LR franchised dealer had a techncian with 43 years of LR knowledge), I think the cost may make it prohibitive. So, I am looking for an honest and trustworthy independent specialist who only fits original/OEM parts. Can anyone help?

I'm also trying to find what tyres were originally fitted to my car when it left the factory. I asked the LR franchised dealer I am buying it from...answer..."don't know". Can anyone help with this? It has Goodyear Wrangler on at the moment and I think that's what it was fitted with as the previous owner told me he had every service/repair done through a franchised dealer.
