| Trade in values closely follow car auction prices. And auction prices for L405's dropped to record lows a few months back, when the combined effect of the expanded ULEZ zone as well as massively risi ... |

Common sense prevails (as it always should have done in this case!!)
Just as an aside, I'm sure I read some time ago that insurers weren't allowed to decline claims on the basis of undisclosed info ... |

| For peace of mind it's probably worth telling the insurance company anything you think may not be the original spec. I would concider AT tyres an increased risk due to their poorer grip on wet tarmac ... |

<SNIP> Our 4.4 TDV8 has big timing chains crushing our oil on top of your typical engine components putting our oil under extreme duress <SNIP>.
Interesting - do you have any links disc ... |

My build sheet shows AT tyres were factory-fitted.
Hi Ron
I was more thinking of the insurance implications of fitting an H rated tyre when V rated (or higher) is specified on the tyre placard o ... |

LR service history is available online for later models (2013 on), all you need is the VIN number.
I'm sure you know this, but here's the link just in case:

I wonder how fitting AT tyres to our vehicles affects the insurance cover? Or L405 wheels to an L322?
You see lots of D3's/D4's/ Fatties with AT tyres with an 'H' speed rating which in many cases ... |

I'd look at a couple more if you can, for comparison. That looks pretty bad to me for a 2012 vehicle!
It looks like surface corrosion from driving on salted roads, although it could have been used ... |

Clocking is 54k less 31k.
Mot and services tie in. So possibly done first 3 years.
If it helps with your decisioning in any way... For me, the question of when the first service was carried out ... |

Why would you clock a car for such a low milage? 14k difference is it worth the effort?
It's more like 24K miles, but I get your point
The car has probably been on a lease / PCP deal at som ... |
