To buy or to wait??

Just seen a 2011 D4 XS with 45k on the clock, full LR service history in excellent condition at a local dealer. I know the Cam belt is due anytime now (7yrs).

Is there any upgrades or modifications on later models that I would be better off waiting for to come within my budget?

Cheers. Bow down Bow down

How long were you thinking of waiitng?
If a couple of years rather than momths I would wait for a Euro 6 version to come into your price range.

Thanks for your useful comments. What year did the 8 speed box come in and when did the Euro 6 engine appear? Also do any of the later models have a cheaper road tax?

MY12 onwards, so roughly 61 plate onwards. I think that's when they put DISCOVERY on the bonnet, not LAND ROVER. Thumbs Up
