I bought my RR last Nov, with 115k on. Could have got one with less miles, but the car I got was 1 owner and FSH. Chap in his 60's...........traded to a Lexus RX300 as it was easier for his wife to park....

Mines currently at 100k. I think condition and history is more important then mileage, unless your a high mileage driver yourself. Reformed |

My"new" TDV8 has 114k miles on it and it's condition is quite stunning. Maybe underneath there's some potential work that will need done, but for now I'm happy and very comfortable with my decision. I say that touching much wood obviously! Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

Bought my TD6 with 112k and it has just passed 120k with no issues other than suspension arms and brake discs/pads. The engine and gearbox are smooth with no issues and electrics is solid (touch wood). I bought the car based on history and condition. Had full history, 1 owner and was mint for the age. Tom

Bought my 54 Plate with 93,000 in September - it's now done 120,000 - only thing other than oil and filters was a suspension unit for the front. |
