I am currently considering buying a used LR Sport and wanted to get some feedback from current users in terms of maj. maintenance milestones, warning signs, years to stay away from, etc. I am currently looking at 2007 with 29K miles from a dealer. It just had the radiator replaced which I thought was odd at this mileage, but I dont know jack about LRs, so I was hoping someone can provide some advice. What typically goes, what time frames, is there some maj. exp maint required at 30K miles, 40K, 60K etc. Any help would be appreciated.

 

The bushings are prone to failure on both the sport model range rovers and the lr3s. They have electrical quirks from time to time, but a generally pretty reliable. That is strange the radiator was replaced so early. It was most likely defective and started to leak. Considering you don't know a ton about them, I would get an extended warranty from the dealer. The warranty usually pays for itself, especially if you get a lemon.
