Ive have owned a few sports and own a Defender 90 so I know a bit about the brand

I’ve always fancied a L322 Westminster 4.4 V8 but never seemed to get round to finding one I wanted until now. I’ve just spotted a lovely black L322 2013 (62) Westminster genuine Overfinch with 46,245 miles on the clock. FSH although I’m not sure at this point if that’s main dealer of if the dates and miles when serviced is correct with LR’s recommendations? It’s in a dealers although not a main dealers with a screen price 30K I’m Hoping to call the dealer make an appointment to view later today.

Service History
13-06-14 13,212 miles
15-09-15 25,462 miles
04-11-16 36,978 miles
31-10-17 38,220 miles
20-11-18 44,022 miles

So can anybody tell me if the service dates have been carried out correctly? When the next one would be due? Is it a big one with belts etc to be changed? I’m assuming that Overfinch did a genuine conversion on a Westminster? How can I check it is a Westminster I.e what extras did they have over and above the Vogue? Any other advice in terms of what to look out for with a car this age and milage? Did the 22” Alloys effect the ride much? I don’t know the reg yet as I haven’t had time to contact the dealer.

IIRC services are due at 12k miles or annually so the service intervals look ok. Next service is due this November as it's only done 2k miles since the last one.

Can you not check the service booklet to see what has been stamped that will tell you what services have been done and which is due next. If you can check who serviced it last maybe even give them a call with the reg and have a chat. Current: FF Westminster money pit

Looks nice but 30k is now L405 money so it seems really expensive despite the low mileage.

What do you think it’s worth?

Realistically they seem to be up for between 15 - 22k.

The overfinch kit puts a lot off people off although I must admit that one looks very nice!

Oh really! I thought the Overfinch would be more desirable? Does it devalue the car being an Overfinch?

Maybe devalue is the wrong word. More it's a very limited market, ie you want an Overfinch and not a more "normal" L322. I'm not a fan I must add, but we all like different things.

Depending on service history and the state once you get up close (does everything work, state of the paint etc), in my opinion that is a £25k - £27k car

Its sub 50k miles, Jan '13 (so last of them).

You could buy it for £25k-£27k and try to sell it a year later and get £13k- £15k as has been said L405 around £30k this year who knows next year?

I had problems with two Overfinch 22 inch wheels cracking on the inner rim, resulting in slow deflation. Was not happy to have them repaired myself, so replaced the entire set with standard 20 inch wheels.

Personally the issue with Overfinch now is that they only do body mods of a slightly dubious nature rather than the full engine/body/interior mods of the past. I wouldn't put any extra money into a car with an OF badge on the front unless I really liked what had been done. The chances are the next person won't like it. To me the last proper OF was the 580s and that's 15 years old now. There is one on eBay but no surprise it has a dodgy engine and they can't sell it.

Nice looking ride sir... The car looks ok too

Sorry, couldn't resist

thank you sir! I’m a very lucky man and still pinch myself almost every morning!

For me that's simply over-priced for not a lot of extras against a decent AB or even Vogue SE

You'd get a 405 for the sort of money you are talking -- in fact there are some for sale in the forum here

Sorry that all sounds rather negative Current: 2011 FFRR Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8
