Archi 46 Posted June 27, 2021 Report Share Posted June 27, 2021 Nice motors to drive and good off road would love another one but don’t really do the miles now to warrant one to sit in the drive to only do 20 miles per week I had the electronic park brake go on mine whilst picking up and wouldn’t budge, was a £1200 fix after being towed away I think air suspension compressor and electrical issues are the other things but if you get a well maintained one then you would hope most of the issues have been sorted. it might be worth looking at an extended warranty 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lid 194 Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 I have owned an 08 plate manual in the same colour since 2013. I had her remapped and EGR delete codes applied which have made her drive so much better and noticeably improved the mpg. The current mileage is 186k and I really love the car, but she has cost me an absolute fortune to maintain and repair over the years. Interestingly I looked at 66 plate D4 in September 2019, and they are now more money than then! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
longers01 2,398 Posted June 30, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 Ye I’m thinking about getting mine remapped this one I’ve just bought only has 110k on clock like atb longers01 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
