LR's 165 Multi Point Inspection anyone got the list
First post! - hurrah!
Have come back to LR from my previous Defender TD5 (I sold it in 2000 after an unhappy eight months of ownership and have had Troopers ever since) to an 18 month old D4 bought a few weeks ago from a LR dealer.
So far so good but with a few niggles.
Re the '165 Multi-Point Inspection', what does that cover precisely? Seems to be a secret. Have just opened a PDF online (against the advice of our IT guru ) to find it's an american version. It may be the same but does anyone know / have a definitive list of the "stringent checklist of 165 inspection processes in place that ensures your vehicle is in optimum electrical and mechanical condition. Would be useful when I'm discussing a couple of points that could have been cured before handover.
Also, is there any way of finding out the actual spec of the vehicle (an SE) from the VIN? I want to ask the dealer for a copy of the original sales invoice just to see what the spec was. Is that rude?
You can then put in your vin and find your build spec.

Many thanks Washwipe - which one of these registration options do I choose? None of them seem 'owner' related?

Once you have registered, how do you find your build sheet ? Every link that I see requires a subscription.

Once you've entered your VIN click on one of the icons 'Printable vehicle summary' or 'Show more vehicle features' at the top right of the Vehicle features area
