If you have been looking for a fully serviced, reliable, CLEAN, HSE P38, then look no further!  Coming from Southern California, this truck will make a welcomed addition to any paddock across the country where foul weather has abused other vehicles.  This truck is rust and rot free and you will feel good about it for may years to come. It performs brilliantly and with a full service profile, you will no doubt obtain one of the finest running P38's out there!

First off, the ONLY reason for the sale of this truck is that my shopmate just took over a lease return on a 2010 HSE. The truck belonged to his wife, and as such, everything has been attended to.

DRIVEABILITY AND PERFORMANCE:

My D1 has been in our shop for the last week and i have been driving this thing over the last several days.... its a BLAST to drive and there is just something truly amazing about being in a properly working P38.  They are great cars with lots of luxury to enjoy and personally, i think they are even nicer than the next generation of Range Rovers because they still retain that feeling of old English craftmanship.  This truck always fires up and runs like a dream with no overheating, no tics, no knocks, no hesitation.  When you hit the gas, the serviced 4.6 has a nice throaty rumble letting you know it can take whatever you throw at it.  Acceleration is a breeze and when you hit available "Sport" mode, this truck takes off like a rocket ship!  There is no hesitation or shudder from the drivetrain and its operation is velvety smooth.  I will miss driving around in this thing b/c the air suspension is truly amazing - ezpecially since im running errands with my 10 day old newborn - once she's out, there's not a bump in the road that can disturb her!!!!  All EAS controls work as they should and make this ride unparalleled to coil spring P38's.

The interior is clean and luxurious and in my opinion is one of the BEST color combinations out there. Eastnor Green exterior and Lightstone leather interior are the hallmark of true British Class and distinction.  The leather is soft and clean with no rips.  The carpets and mats are clean with no stains or burns.  All switches and multifunction controls work perfect as do all windows and sunroof.  The heat works great as does the AC and this gem still retains the factory stereo and CD player which HAS AMAZING crystal clear quality.  The romote entry handset works great too.

If there are to be any quirks to consider about this truck, the are too few to really mention and have no bearing on how great of a truck it is.... the drivers side rear quarter panel has a small ding in it just above the tail light - the drivers side headlamp has a crack in it and honestly, thats about all I can think of.

 

PERSPECTIVE

This is an awesome truck that has been loved and serviced by factory trained technicians and as I have mentioned, the only reason for the sale is the acquisition of a 2010 HSE.  This truck is being sold as is, where is with no warranty - HOWEVER - as owners of a local Land Rover repair shop, we want you to be happy - so lets say something quits working within a reasonable amount of time and we have it on the shelf, we are happy to send it!  Things like door handles, alternators, etc etc.... Again, this truck has been THOROUGHLY serviced and looked over as it was my shop mates wifes.... and if i feel good enough about it to drive around my newborn, that whould tell you something.  No used car though is impervious to servicing and you should have it in your mind to keep up on its regularly scheduled factory service plan so that it runs and looks great so long as you have it.  Purchase of this truck IMPLIES understanding of its condition and happiness with the sale.  If you have any questions, NOW IS THE TIME TO ASK!!!  It is a nice truck, but still a USED one and you should expect to see normal wear and tear on overall cosmetics and while it IS a rust free truck, you can still expect to see normal road grime, oil saturation, drips and build up - all of this is what i would consider normal.

Again, you have the opportunity to get a great truck - WITH NO RESERVE - so bid to win!!!!
