Default Thinking of purchasing an 08 LR3

hey guys - used to have a 99 DII years ago and need to have another LR!

Looking at 2008 LR3 with 72k miles, one owner (they are asking $22,898 - is that fair price) Sounds like rear diff might be an issue with these and wondering if anyone might be able to tell me from the carfax:
CARFAX Vehicle History Report for this 2008 LAND ROVER LR3 HSE: SALAG254X8A483017
OR VIN: SALAG254X8A483017
if there is an HD package on this?

Also considering LR2's - any feelings one way or the other. No kids - so OK if it's smaller. Don't do too much off roading and live in Boston so this thing will see some nasty winters!

The LR3 is a little much for just around town and no off-roading. I think the price sounds a little high but that's easy enough to check (blue book).

My opinion, based ONLY on my experience, is that the price is high at almost $23k. I purchased my 08 HSE about 14 months ago, with very similar mileage, 1 owner from new, same dealership for all maintenance, excellent condition throughout, with HD package and factory-installed Warn Winch setup, for just under $21k.

Always hard to compare trucks since it really comes down to how they were taken care of and the type of person that owned them, but as a price comparison, there's an '08 SE w/95k miles (w/navigation) for $15,500 right now in my craigslist ads. And it has been listed for quite a while w/o selling. So, yes, I think that price is high. Another '08 HSE w/85k miles is listed at $16,500.
