Returning to the fold...

After running the BMW 520 for a couple of years it's been sold and I'm coming back to the fold. Currently looking for a nice low mileage D4 for around 20K, hopefully going to score one this week.
What should I expect too get for that? I'm thinking a low mileage 2013 car? The 520 was great to drive but the family didn't like it very much and I miss the Disco...

It was in the 5 as well. A friend had one and the N47 engine in his 5 Series ate itself at 4 years and 90,000 miles. He’s been with a 2.2 XF ever since.

So I'm back in the fold... Very Happy

I picked up a MY13 D4 HSE on 23rd December, 1 owner, Santorini Black, excellent condition, 68K miles and a full Land Rover service history. Just come back from a 2.5K road trip to the South of France. Performed perfectly and it was so nice to be back in the disco !!

By the way my wife convinced me to go the 'black' route (Santorini black, black wheels, black leather and privacy glass) I think she was right 8)

Very nice
(Tho worth considering the side vents being colour coding if you're after the all black look).
Thumbs Up

mrs ronp & I are just back from some walks that entailed forest drives, lunch from the tailgate.
And the D4 was superb in a superb setting.
Throughout that time I thought - "wouldn't it be horrible to own and do this in just a 'normal' car".

Welcome back.
