Default Need 110 P400 S Pre-Purchase Advice?

Friends are planning on selling their 2024 110 P400 S with about 50k miles. I know it has been babied and all service done at LR dealer. She had electrical gremlins early on but those were taken care of by the dealer and have not returned. Other than a PPI, I need advice on what to look for and/or consider. Most of the reviews of the P400 have been positive, but would love to hear some real world experience. It will be my daily driver as well as an overlanding vehicle.

I'm guessing one of you has posted something that would help me but I haven't been able to find anything.

Thank you in advance.

Have the exhaust manifold bolts checked. Otherwise, it sounds like a very well maintained P400.

I would be interested in the cost of having someone check the manifold bolts. What that procedure looks like and would it be covered in a standard PPI. I would think just checking for broken manifold bolts will triple if not more the cost of what a standard PPI would cost.

I don’t know if it’s possible to get a camera like a boroscope in there to take a peek. If possible that would avoid hours of work to remove and reinstall the supercharger, intercooler, and a whole bunch of stuff.

It would make it prohibitively expensive I reckon. Thousands in labor.

It’s a safe assumption that these bolts break on every single P400. Most before warranty is up.
