Scotland 2012 Range Rover Westminster TDV8 Orkney Grey
Another milestone - not getting any younger!

Pulled into the driveway this evening, glanced at the display and noticed another milestone had been reached. Shocked





After just over ten years of life, she's now turned 57,000 miles. That means we've covered 15,000 miles in the past year and a half of my ownership without any trouble or issue.

My old 3.6 TDV8 Vogue was the best car I've ever owned. This 4.4 TDV8 Westie is just soooooooo much better!! Razz

Our Westie's are like twins. Mine is an Orkney grey registered in November 2012 and is just approaching 55,000. I just bought it at the start of January this year. They are an amazing car.

Twins indeed!! Thumbs Up

My VIN is from the final week of production and it was registered on 18 November 2012.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Do you know if your oil cooler gaskets and o-rings have been done? The older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom Smile

Mine was registered on 12 November.
I'm not sure if that work was done. It passed all MoTs with no advisories except a low brake pad warning a number of years ago. Previous owner was a mechanic who serviced it himself and only covered 18k miles in 6 1/2 years. Sadly he passed away and his family were selling the car so I have receipts for oil and filters etc but don't have detail of all he did. He did change battery and starter motor in 2021 as he was unhappy with how it was starting. I plan to leave it in to a local Land Rover specialist, they give the car a once over for £64.50 - the cost of an hour's labour. Hopefully that report won't show anything major. The serpentine belt looks new but I didn't get a receipt for it so not sure if belt and tensioners were changed.
