Default Newbie with 2008 LR3 HSE Westminster

Today I finally made the plunge and bought a 2008 LR3 HSE Westminster Edition. I had done my homework and knew I wanted an HSE but I had never heard of a Westminster Edition. Im still not exactly sure what that means but I know I love the car and I got a pretty good deal on it. Thank you to all that contribute on this forum. I am sure the more I drive it the more questions I will have so thank you in advance.

Welcome. The shop manual is a free download below. Would advise you maintain fluids more frequently than Rover says in the book. 150,000 on tranny fluid, replace with 70,000, etc. In particular, things like front differential, which holds a whopping 22 ounce of fluid, but costs about $2200 to replace. Don't wait ten years on these things. These trucks have so much electronics that a tip top battery is needed at all times, not a five year old Neva-start from the big box store.
