I assume there's usually a bit more room for negotiation with the 4.4 over the TD6, I've decided to go for the V8, budget is about £14k max, and I want to get one in Black, I know about checking the air suspension, low range works, HDC works, the steering column doesn't squeak and that its had its recall for the front diff, anything else to really look out for on them?, other than obvious signs of damage?, just want to check so I can make sure I go to look at them knowing what to keep an eye out for.
I will get some pictures up as soon as I've made the purchase!

Also to add, where is the best place to get the SC front grille and clear light upgrade done?, other than that I want to leave standard but really feel it makes the car look more up to date.

Good luck with your serch , nearly every one on this forum with a BMW 4.4 V8 talks about the PCV hoses turning to polititans brain after about five or six years but it seems that "they all do that sir " and it's not a big job ( aparently ). 2008 MY Supercharged

2024 RR Velar
2021 AM new Vantage

Thanks for the offer , I've arranged to look at 2 tomorrow, if they don't work out then I will let you know and arrange to view.
How does Tonga differ from Epsom Green?, I don't think I've ever seen one in that colour, Epsom Green looks superb on the P38 but I'm unsure on the new one.

I think the best colours are Java Black but without blacked out windows and huge wheels, Bonetti grey is lovely and dare I say it white

Something else I hope someone can answer if possible is do the 2002-2003 ones have any sort of ipod connectivity at all?
