Looks much like a Michelin A/S tyre than the Verdes. I agree. They look very much like my CC2s. Not a bed thing if they perform anything like them.

The Range Rover has been brilliant. It has stopped dropping oil over the drive since I changed the oil cooler gaskets and has done 1400 miles since that without issue.
It's booked into Stagshaw Land Rover for a service and health check and I've told them to go through it.
It's going to need a couple of rear shocks and some ball joints up front.

Garage have done the service and gearbox service as requested.
The brake pipes need replacing for the MOT which is a very common L322 problem.
As I suspected the shock absorbers on the rear are both knackered so these need replacement and it also needs lower front arm bushes and an alignment.
Haven't got a cost for that little lot as of yet, but is about the level of maintenance I expected this time around.

Best to keep on top of the maintenance and great there are no nasty surprises

Got it back. It drives fantastically. Good job, the bill was just shy of £4k.
It had new front upper and lower arm bushes, new rear shocks absorbers, gearbox service, brake pipes everywhere, service and a coolant flush.
It has been given a clean bill of health and I was told it was a very clean example.
If I'd have gone and bought a minter from The Vogue Centre then I would have paid north of £20k. I only paid £15k for this one so am still in pocket, just about.

And the same jobs would still need doing!
