Wanted 2010-2015 Range Rover Sport 5.0L

It should seem easy enough, but I have been searching for 6 months for the right RRS, with no luck. Any of you guys have one and thinking of upgrading to a new rover?

Looking for lower miles, serviced, and no mechanical issues.
White, Silver, Grey, Black exterior
Interior color isn't important.
5.0L NA preferred, if its supercharged thats ok. No V6/diesel

Let me know if you guys have something!

 

There's your issue! Lol, just kidding, but seriously, it's hard to find nice ones that don't need a ton of work, and have lower miles.

I just picked up a 2014 FS yesterday, but it has 95K. BUT, it's a 5.0 SC and pretty mint.

Don't you have dealer access? Check out ACV or similar maybe? Could be some gems in there.

 

I have a 2014 full size black/black RangeRover Autobiography. Paid I think 139k new.
Just rolled 100k miles, (all highway) I have spent 20k on it in the last 2 months.....ugh.

My suggestion is whatever you buy is to get an extended warranty.

 

Coolant issues? Suspension?

 

coolants been fine so far.
front suspension 2x
rear suspension 1x
drivers side door handle (door would just pop open randomly)
catalytic convertors
oxygen sensors
rear seats always getting stuck partially folded
alternator
generator
4x batteries
rear auto tailgate sensor
thats just off the top of my head

normal stuff
4x tires
4x brakes

 

Good lord...That suspension stuff is a PITA. At 100K mark on the 2015 FS I was working on it needed upper and lower control arms so badly I was surprised it wasn't sagged on itself lol.

 

it really is, and as I said my 100k miles is 100% highway. Never has it been offroad.......

 

Yup but that suspension goes up and down on a very very heavy vehicle and they don't squeak or pop and ride like a cloud. Eventually it has to give out. 100k is perfect acceptable. The 1000 bucks a corner is the problem.

To the OP

Avoid the 2010s and maybe 11s. They have a few extra issues on those v8s that require complete replacement

 

Agree the 2010 and 11 were horrible, I had one of them as well

 

Going totally OT here, and sorry for the hijack, but if anyone is looking for a tune on a 2013+. I have a brand new VR tuner available that I got for a neighbor and he decided to stay stock. It's for the 3.0SC, but I can send it back to VR and they can change the tune to any year/engine as they all use the same ECU connection hardware. $675 shipped (retail is $750). If you don't have a 3.0SC it will take about a week for me to ship to VR, change the tune and VR to ship it to you. 65hp gain on 3.0 supercharged & 74hp gain on 5.0 supercharged. Message me if anyone's interested.

 

Thanks guys, this thread turned interesting Yes is have access to multiple auctions, but the Rovers that run through are either ‘17-19 lease returns or 100k mile roaches. So no luck there. I would ideally like a ‘12-13 pre-facelift but I have broadened my search for lack of availability.

 

FYI, I just bought a brand new sport -3500 and zero pct financing. Originally I was looking for a used one too and the deal on new was too good to pass up. Best , Kirk.

 

20k at dealer or Indi?

Wow. We leased a brand new at the time 2015 RRS. Never again. Before we turned it back in, we had a local mechanic here get all of the warning lights off. I said "do you think it will make it to Dallas without them coming on?" He said "possibly - just don't go on any sight-seeing tours along the way."

We held our breath on the 300 mile trip to Dallas, and when we turned it in, not a single warning light was on. When we signed all of the papers, we fled the dealership before they could catch us and say "now wait a minute..."

That was a very happy day.

 

Just to chime in..I am on my 5th RR, 2 full sized and 3 sports...all Supercharged
Really other than normal maintenance..not one problem in 5 cars
