This channel is absolutely brilliant. Found it for the first time this evening through the Metro video, and have thoroughly enjoyed watching everything posted thus far. Some of the best content I've ever seen, and right up there along with High Peak Autos and Chops Garage for quality and down to earth realism. Great to see the car trade as it is, warts and all, without any of the usual bullshit. A proper little gem that deserves to do well. 👍👍👍
Thanks again matt, I enjoy watching chops garage and HP also, both them channels and couple others inspired me to create this channel few weeks back. I will be releasing my visit to the car auction on sunday all being well so check that out when it lands
I chanced upon the channel under similar circumstances, and I totally echo your sentiments :)
@@shepshepherd Thanks james
At the end of the day, helping out someone important to you will be more valuable than a bit of extra profit.
Yes very true Ed, 👍👍
One of my favourite new car channels on TH-cam and deserves to be huge. Keep 'em coming 👍
Thanks RC means a lot, and I shall keep them coming
I like how he isn't overly cocky, like some others, he comes off as a nice genuine guy.
@@Admodeus Very true. He's a very down to earth, unassuming guy. Excellent information, too. Great channel.
@@Admodeus totaly agree just a normal guy not like matt 😉
This chap knows his stuff, knows the faults of the various models, and details are correct when he talks about specific mechanical items and issues.
How lovely to find a car that's been looked after like that. How lovely to find a JLR product without any real problems. Thanks for another great video Lee and bless you for taking a hit on the profit to help out family, karma is a wonderful thing and you've earned yourself some good luck and respect with that one.
Cheers Alastair for the kind words, Have a great Christmas and thanks for watching 👍👍
Just goes to show how notoriously problematic any JLR product is (at any age) when it’s almost impossible to believe that there’s nothing wrong with it - no warning lights, suspension faults, abs faults - usually what brings it into the trade is the fault that was the ‘last straw’ for the previous owner and it ended up as a p/ex. Good vid
Thanks jack, yes I have bought many from auction riddled with the faults you mention so was nice to get something so genuine as this one. Thanks for watching and happy new year to you
All you want is a honest jeep . And a honest guy . Fair play .
Only subscribed this month keep the videos coming . Love the variety of cars and knowledge you have. Was nice to see you filming this video outside my old house on kingsway.
Many thanks, just found a quiet corner near winsford FC 🤣🤣
Just letting you know I really enjoy these videos and this channel has massive potential to grow. You’ve got a honest likeable approach about you and present the vehicles well.
Thanks jacob very kind words, glad your enjoying the content, & I will keep it coming
Great new channel, and good to see your subs rising . You've good product knowledge, and appraise the cars superbly. Good work, top job, and keep them coming bud. Again, your channel deserves to be huge.
Thanks chris very kind words, I will just keep throwing the content out and see where it goes, overwhelmed by the response so far, i was expecting to get to 1000 subs in 12 months not 2 weeks. Thanks for watching 👍👍
Brilliant video this ! I'm buying one this month and needed some cracking advice before hand.
some bargains out there don’t go steaming into the first one as holding back for few months could save you a packet, these big land rovers are falling in price fast, check out my recent video on prices falling bud
Really good video.
Lot of sensible information that can translate into a basic knowledge that can be applied to purchasing an older car.
For me it underlines that if a car has had some money put in it, been cared for a bit then no matter how complicated they are to work on they can make a good buy
Yes something big and potential expensive to fix like this you do not really want one that's been abused and not had some attention and basic servicing carried out. Thanks for watching oscar
Not even passed my test yet and know almost nothing about cars but still subscribed to your channel!
Great videos are these!
Thanks angry cats, cant recommend a range rover for your first car tbh, 😁
I love how those Lr332 rovers look, I wish they were not so difficult to find and had a better interior
later 2009 models interior were much better but the engine is a worry on the later models in 3liter form
well done on the sale of that Beautiful vehicle lee. you deserve it thanks a lot of these videos . very down to earth and enjoyable
Thanks 👍
The twin turbo version of that engine also appeared on the S Type Jag which I had back in 2006/7 Absolutely beautiful comfortable luxury car. All I always say is don't expect a sophisticated piece of Engineering to run as intended if it's not serviced in line with the manufacturers recommendations. I think this car proves that yet again. Fabulous job well done on the prop. Spot on.
Thanks brian, we are very pleased with it, it could of been far more expensive than it turned out. them 2.7 s type diesels were one hell of a motor 👍
Nice one, have to help family right 👍
Looks like it’s been serviced, the problem with these cars isn’t the car, it’s the on a shoestring maintenance. People want the look but can’t afford the upkeep…..same with any luxury car. Good video.
Agree wonka, I see it alot in my workshop in particular with bmw owners. Many thanks for watching 👍👍
Should I buy a 55 plate range sport with 200k miles for £1500 quid great condition only turns over no start or is it not worth 1500 👍👍👍
Im amazed how you can tell the faults without looking. Thats pure experience and skill.👍🏼
Thanks f2a when you have worked in a garage for so many years and inspecting vehicles you pick up the sounds the tell tales and come a custom the common issues. Thanks for watching and happy new year
Owned this car myself. Amazing drive, the problems do start to mount up over time. When that knock starts it's an expensive job....unless you do it yourself.
yes key thing on RR is tackle the jobs early on, most run on shoe string. thanks for watching Chris
I’m glad I’ve found this channel
Thanks
The only car chamnel not ruined by car vertical
Keep the videos coming, we’ll done👍
Thanks Jeff,
Brilliant video with info for used cars buyer
Thanks Raja
Great video Lee 👍 and did a nice thing selling it cheap to yr relative ....have a great Christmas buddy
Thanks, you too!
Nice video mate😎
Very informative video would make me look out for the faults if I was to buy one. Keep up the good work 🙌
Thanks john
Wasn't expecting that ending. But yeah... understandable. Congrats on more than doubling your subscriber count in a short amount of time, Lee. Nicely done.
No neither was I 😁 I was hoping for a big bucket of profit, but to be fair its gone to a good home and we made a little bit on it, thanks for watching and comment 👍👍
Hello from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪 subscribed to your channel about a week ago now and really enjoying your videos so keep them coming pal 🚗🚗🏎️🏎️🛻🛻
Thanks james, I will keep them coming. thanks for watching and the sub 👍👍
More nouse humanity and skill than the entire house of commons. Nice one.
thanks andy to be fair its not hard having more humanity than mps 🤣
I'm not responsible for anything to do with the Engine in this Range Rover sport but I was responsible for tooling approval and dimensional reports of the Td5 head from 98ish to 06ish before going into production and the Landrover V8 block and heads from 91ish to 05 when Landrover stopped production . Shame it's not an overfinch model which by chance I live near overfinch factory in Birstal Batley it's on a large housing estate regardless looks well for 3 grand, With your accent you have to be Manchester area this would be ideal for anyone living near saddle worth moor.
Hi jeremy, thanks for commenting I used to run a p38 with the 4.6 v8, what a engine that was, I guess that's one of the engines you would of worked on. Your correct I am from near Manchester around 30 miles away in Cheshire, Originally from Crewe where all the trains stop 😁 thanks for watching
New subscriber there. Believe it or not my name is Lee and I was buying and selling cars part time from around 1992 to about 2006. Still do the odd one but have switched to 60s 70s 80s mainly Japanese Mopeds and small cc stuff and 70s Raleigh Choppers. Made the switch mainly because it's easier to store 10 bikes rather than 10 cars. Cheers
Thanks mulberry bush 👍👍
Real good informative video 👍
thanks keith have a great new year and all the best
I was as lucky as you!
I recently purchased at 2006 2.7 TDV6 and it was spotless with no faults too.
6 months on and it’s still fine.
As the saying goes…
“If you look after your car, you car will look after you”.
Agree, best thing to do on a RR is keep on top of servicing and when things go wrong (which they will) get them sorted straight away, see to many customers with brake or suspension faults which make the situation worse. all the best with your RRS
Nice to see your subscribers growing quickly. Started watching when you had 200 and that wasn’t that long ago
Thanks ian, yes been amazed by the response over the last 4 weeks since I launched my first block of videos, really was not expecting to get to this position 1 month in. Its really changed my plans and I am looking forward for next year in growing this further. Many thanks for watching again 👍👍
@@carukchannel Nice one. It’s channels like yours mean I hardly watch regular TV anymore. Keep up the good work , I’m sure there is a lot of time and effort goes into making them so seeing your numbers grow make it worthwhile.
Glad you got a nice car After the last one
Very good honest video. Well done from glen.
Thanks Glen, thank you for watching once again 👍👍
Great thanks! Does this model have a dpf? Also, is there any 3ltr version without a dpf?
well done buddy ! you done a good deed and you still made a profit ! and the new owner really got the car for a £1000 pound cheaper so win win on both sides! result
Thanks bike mad, yes he did get cheaper, I shall remind him every time I see him, unless something goes wrong 🤣🤣
well done on that deal thanks for the video
Thanks eddie,
great video 👍
Thank you 👍
Love the channel - well done to you sir!! Sounds a really difficult job to make money on. Hope your next purchases are as potentially profitable as this old Range Rover 👍
Thanks Nigel 👍👍
Liking the videos so far 👍 if you’re interested in a CL500 with some suspension issues give me a shout 😂
GREAT VIDEO BUD 👍👍JUST FOUND YOUR CHANNEL 👍👍GOOD HONEST CONTENT 👍👍😀😀
thanks robin kind of you to say, welcome to the this new channel and i will keep the content flowing rest assured 👍👍
nice one,that 2.7d engine they also had in the jaguar s type and the early Jag Xf before going to the 3.0
Yes it was in the s type, however i am sure in the s type it had twin turbo chargers fitted and kicked out more bhp. Thanks for watching Daz 👍👍
@@carukchannel the 2.7d in the s type had 190bhp if I remember right,I took a 07 2.7d s type sport for a test drive last year lovely car nearly bought it till I looked underneath and saw it was leaking coolant ended up buying an 08 x type 2.2d sovereign auto instead alot of car for not alot of money
Good review. Well done.
Thank you kindly!
Great video mate, shame not more profit - hopefully you get the chance to sell it again in the future!
Maybe who knows, its gone to a good home which is great and I know it will be looked after. some more profit would of been nice your right 😁
Great video, I buy and sell cars I bought 2005 RR sport in 2016 for 12k, I even bought it from a garage for 3 months warranty, within 3 months it had been back to thdm for 2 months,, suspension pump failure,, egr valves,, handbrake,, couple of suspension bits, then out of warranty it would not start under zero temperature because of the stupid sensor that make you think its the glow plugs, then the steering rack went notchy another coming problem. I only owned it 18 months I did 4,000 miles I lost 6k on it plus around 3k in repairs, it also cost the garage around 2,5k in warrant work.
Hi Leeds, sorry to hear your bad experience with your RRsport, they can be money pits it has to be said. I have owned 3 now and my wife drives one and they (touch wood) have been ok, still cost a few quid to maintain but nothing like you went through. Thanks for watching bud 👍👍
Just subscribed,good and informative content,Chris
thanks chris, have a great christams and happy 2023
@@carukchannel you too Lee
Love to have that !!
Thanks for watching phil, it was a decent one to be fair. Most of the time they are headaches
Always check underneath for a spare...rims are very expensive.
Nice one. 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
Lovely car Lee, great gesture . Why do people run cars like this with mis matched tyres? Very bad idea. Champagne lifestyle ran on lemonade money 💰💰
Yeah to be fair the tyres were not cheap ones but would of been nice to kept matched pair on something like this, can forgive odd tyres on a cheapy £1k car mind but not a RR thanks for watching 👍
Quite often see fairly new Land Rovers broken down. It's like Land Rover never learn or don't care about their reliability problems.
Yes the reliability is questionable, the guy who runs the business opposite my workshop has a new 3.0 range rover, he has been told he has to have it serviced every 8k in order to keep the warranty, if not and the engine blows they will not repair, its a new car for goodness sake and they trying to get out of it blowing up, such is the poor engine design 😁
@@carukchannel just shows you how little confidence they have in their product.
Sacrificing a bit of profit to help out a relative will pay itself back. Lovely example of a RRS that’s been well taken care of.
Hope so, If I need some DIY sorting you can guess who I will be calling 🤣🤣
It's such a shame that JLR can't get these cars to be reliable as they are really nice cars looks wise but I got a sportage ok a fair bit smaller but its super reliable and with a 1.6tgdi motor its quick enough for me the o ly problem I can see is the dct transmission but I'll get it serviced so fingers x.
cos it's in such good order, i would get that scratch done on back bumper, cheap refurb of the alloys to make it extra nice then get a premium
I was going to get the back bumper done, but as it sold to a relative, he got a big enough discount so he can sort that if he so wishes. I was also tempted to get a couple of the wheels refurbed had I not sold it to him and tried it on auto trader, at a slightly higher price of 4695, Never mind. Thanks for watching michael again 👍
@@carukchannel skoda fabia's and Octavia's are good cars bud if you ever do any on the channel, reliable motors
I have an 05 with 195k on the clock, it’s been looked after and still pulls like a train. Look after it and it will look after you.
2005 Plate, your one of the lucky ones with the cheaper road tax bracket, 👍👍Thanks for watching
Had mine for a good while, only problem was a belt tensioner, they are the same as any car, look after them and they're fine, don't and they'll break as anything mechanical will..
yes i had a belt tensioner fail on one fee years ago, good point, i am sure i changed the water pump while i was there
Ouch, I bought a 4.4 sport with an overfinch body kit £2700, mine did need the timing chain doing on her, bloody huge job, wife’s daily driver, not a fan of range rovers
4.4 nice👍 I have had a couple of them and they are hit and miss. Wife also has a slightly newer 09 facelift model with the 3.0tdv6 which likes to throw cranks, always fixing the dam thing but she loves it, proper Cheshire tractor
@@carukchannel yeah my wife’s is a 2011, personally I hate em lol, im a classic car restorer and vehicle dismantler by trade, I’ve had a lot of range rovers over the years, the L322 especially the early diesels like your one suffer with the loom on the passenger side, the door seal goes and water gets in, outa the 4 wheel drives it’s by a long mile a Toyota Surf for me, I bet you’ve had a few over the years, cracking motors, but to be fair to the Range Rover after the poor reliability and expensive parts, they do look nice and drive great
@@thatroverguy1937 They do drive well, but to be fair if I could stick her in a Merc ML I would as I know it will be less hassle. Where is your breakers ? always handy to know, as we buy a lot of gearboxes and engines for our vehicles and customers in the garage
@@carukchannel Mercedes ML’s are a nightmare lol 😂 one of the lads has a 2013 v8 ML with an auto box, the sheer amount of time he’s been recovered is laughable lol 😂 my Capri isn’t even half as unreliable 😂 based in Shropshire mate, we do all makes and models, primarily export and supplying core units to reconditioning companies nowadays, but we still sell a fair bit locally, where abouts are you based?
I had a xr4i that did the clock and some more 150 +I remember toying with a 3i at 110 on motorway and just leaving it for dead coming back from re performance In bury I was going that fast I missed my turn of motorway by 2 exits with 3 passengers proper fast car but interior was a let down
Does anybody know what the extra round vim tag on it was ?
👌👌👌👌
As the saying goes Lee. One good turn deserves another
Yes your right, just done some discs and pads on it saturday for him, lovely thing and he is taking care of it which is great to see
Forgot to ask, do you not bother getting rid of the curb rash on alloy wheels? Do you think it's just an un necessary expence? . Winds me up a treat if I see it 😂
I was going to have two of the wheels refurbed and sort that boot step out for paint had I not sold it to my relative, he got a big enough discount so wheels and boot he can sort at his own leisure
I too love to watch your Car UK channel along with the Chops Garage Channel & the High Peak Autos Channel !
"Thank You !"
Addendum : This is a Welsh Origin Registration Vehicle.
Forget him! Poxy £450 could’ve been in the thousands
Going to look at one tomorrow for 3k hopefully it’s as nice as this one haha
Good luck leon, 👍👍
What do you think it would of sold for approx if it didnt end up going to your relative ? Great info in your vids !
Looked 4750 asking Jon, bitter pill to swallow 😒
HMm timing belt, water pump and The gearbox may need a fluid and filter change???
Not bad looking motor. Always been frightened of buying one of these due to the horror reliability stories and high maintenance costs.
to be fair the 2.7 engine is not to bad, the later 3.0 is prone to throwing cranks even late late models are still having this issue which of cause range rover are denying any problems 😒 Also the road tax is a killer, the RT on this was over £600 😢
@@carukchannel £600 🤯 that's crazy, I was desperate for a car as my old jetta failed it's mot quite badly, I got a Peugeot 207 diesel estate with 77k miles for I thought a good price with the way cars were a few months ago for £1650 on a 62 plate but the real suprise was when I went to tax it the tax was £20 a year so £600 seems bonkers now 😁
@@crofty565 I have no idea what you mean? Get good?
@wakeup2theNWO completely wrong video reply haha my bad
@@crofty565 No worries mate 👍
Wish I had such trader friends that I could call upon for a good deal been looking for a car since November last year and all I have seen is overpriced high mileage crap with dents gouges and scrapes that need small fortune paid after purchasing the car to make it look half decent and roadworthy
Am sure you will land on something soon peter, good luck with your search and thanks for watching 👍👍
Probably the only range without a light on in the whole country 😆
i dont think the engine managment light were off when new on range rovers 😁
It's gonna be as reliable as Joe Bidens memory...
🤣🤣
Free fousand pounds , amazing ! 😅
about right to buy in the trade 3k with that mileage, thanks for watching colin
Another cracking video
Really hope this doesn't turn into a money pit for you . We've been using Land Rovers for years at work.
Replaced every 3 years and we've never had a good one yet.
Keep up the great work
wow that's not a great advert for landrover products steve 😁 Will keep the content coming and thanks again for watching 👍
That sticky stuff is left over ppf wrap
could be, it was well stuck on, some tar and glue spray seems to shift it. thanks for watching Ragnor 👍👍
What about the internal heating checks you did not check the heating hope you check that all the heating does work in the range rover before you sell the car and before you sell this excellent car
To be fair i did not show this in the video your correct, it was and is working though, Also heated seats were lovely 👍👍Thanks for watching
Just an observation the back window is still as dirty.
Just seen one here in rip off Ireland want 10,000 stupid prices here
Should I buy a 55 plate range sport with 200k miles for £1500 quid great condition only turns over no start or is it not worth 1500 👍👍👍
Keep well away if its not starting imo for £1500 👍
@@carukchannel lady owner said she's been driving it alot had it for 3 years then parked it up for a week and now it won't start she's jump started it but just turned over its only 20 mins away from me
Hmmmm 🤔🤔🤔
@@flippingcarsrepairs is she trying to sell you a bridge also?
@@ln5747 🤣🤣🤣I didn't buy it in the end thank god
Reliable engine 🤣🤣🤣🤣 probably one of the biggest failures in recent years if your crank doesn't snap you might have a good one to be fair you got a nice car for the money there
In my experience on working and selling them its the 3.0 later engine thats more problematic although I have come across a couple of poor 2.7 units in my time. Thanks for watching Sam 👍👍
I love these RRSs but was shocked how many are listed on eBay and autotrader with snapped crankshafts. So I looked at the later 3.0 and found several low mileage versions with seized engines. A guy has posted a video showing exactly where they snap as the crank journals are manufactured far too thin to take the torque load of a 2 ton truck such as the RRS. Additionally there are poorly designed oil pump tensioners which also let go leading to timing belts snapping and terminal catestrophic failure. In the US Land Rover were taken to court allegedly. I believe the v8 4.2 supercharged Jag engine and the V8 4.4 BMW units are a better bet with conventionally designed strong cranks. But £600 road tax is a killer.
@@habsom1406 just my 3litre q7 is 600 to tax 👀👀🙄
I can’t believe you can buy these cars for 4-5000 pounds
Even cheaper than that now, I was bidding on a 2010 plate car few weeks ago £2800
I bet they px’d because of the propshaft…
Maybe, it did feel bad at speed and shook through the car. Thanks for watching 👍👍
To have someone you can trust is worth so much
Very true, thanks for watching Rob
£6k car with wheels done and blown in the bit on bumper
Yes shame I sold it cheap to a relative 😂
Matching tyres is a great sign shame
Ohhhhh nooooo ! Range Rover built somewhere in back yard. Probably the worst cars in the world, that’s including Lada :(
no such thing as a cheap range rover!! parts will kill you on it
In my opinion I find range rovers and germam cars unreliable. I'd rather buy a French car, a Japanese car or a Korean car. Just my opinion 🙂🙂
I agree, most range rovers and some german cars are unreliable, to be fair I don't think you get many true reliable cars its about picking the least troublesome. I don't mind French cars, they get a lot of bad stick but I can think of few that offer really decent motoring and are not that unreliable
@@carukchannel I think people should stop giving french cars a bad rep. French cars nowadays are some of the coolest and most reliable cars you can buy now
Nice bud but recommend to everybody that have these vehicles or the discos when you lift the bonnet on the back of the engine of the right side when you’re facing the bonnet which I think is where the battery is located. Please try not to jet wash the engines in that area. I did it on my discovery and I blew all the little silver electrical Tronic boxes underneath and did some of the wiring loom never did get it running again and I couldn’t work out why as these vehicles are made to go through water.
Hi mark sorry to hear that, I have always been nervous jet washing engines (even diesels) for that very reason. To many electrical components attached to modern cars. Thanks for watching bud 👍👍
People won't be able to buy theses cars because of all the clean air zone charges it's £10 a day to have big engine cars on the road that's £200 a month if you are just using it five days a week ,no one will want them.
In the major city's, London, Birmingham and soon Manchester city centre, yes your correct, for the majority of the UK it does not effect us owing these big engine vehicles. However i suspect in the not to distant future the government will try and find another way to target the UK motorist.
The 2.7 engine is the worst engine out there, nobody wants them.
that's not my experience, they sell very well, thanks for watching
