Going to view a 05 4.2SC hopefully and have read through the wiki page which are a great help thanks.
I enjoy getting my hands dirty and coming from a Discovery 3 I'm wondering what are the L322's like to work on?

Servicing is similar to most, suspension components can be a PITA to remove/replace.

You do need a code reader if doing it yourself, IID is preferred by many, expensive but always worth good money second hand so not too bad if you can afford it to start with...

Apart from that it's just a big meccano kit like the rest....  Pete

Thanks

got code readers coming out of my ears these days
the IID has been a big help on the D3. will be taking the icarsoft with me to do some basic checks though.

hopefully I wont need the recip saw to do suspension arms on one..

Just add the RR onto your IID by paying GAP an additional fee.
You can then use the D3 and the RR on the IID with full functionality

That's the plan once I've bought one.

Good choice of car . I bought mine in 2015 never regretted it. They all have their little quirks (ie: reversing camera only works when it feels like it), but all things can be fixed or replaced.

Like you I looked at pre-facelift ones, then this one came along, the rest is history. Make sure the entertainment set up works and has 2 sets of infra red headphones + remote. Mine never had a remote and I had to buy one (£145).

Good Luck
