Help… confused what the best….

Hi guys, so I am very new to this site and range rovers, I am looking to buy one in the near future but I am confused and need your help….
I have the budget to buy either an high mileage 2019 or a low mileage 2016….
The service history looks, from a high level, to be the same….
So the question is which one? And what to look for?

Thanks for your help!

Go sit in them and drive them yourself. The tech on the 2016 is old now, it doesnt bother some people, it does bother others. see where you sit on that scale, some things can be upgradeable. Don't be afraid of higher miles, they can wear the miles very well if they are looked after. Onto my 2nd FFRR, this time an L405 5.0L SC AB in SVO Palette black.

They can wear the miles well, but like most cars they tend to go through a dip at 80k-100k miles / 10 years old.

I think that at that age or mileage, things start to get to a stage where they just begin to wear out ... bushes, ball joints, rubbers, belts, ACE pipes, steel rusting etc etc etc ... it just happens.

But if you're prepared to get through those things, then I do beleive you can run them for a good number of years going forward. V8 or else ...

My vote is 2018+ as it has the better security system (Ultra wide band) there are a few threads on this topic (facelift or not etc) use the search. 2018 SE SDV8 4.4 Byron Blue

I had a 65 plate A/B, a 16 model and moved to a 20 plate A/B and the difference is huge considering they’re the same car. The latter one is a far nicer more comfortable place to be with a much improved infotainment system, also the headlights are a world apart with the LED’s on the later car, so unless the 19 plate has mega miles or poor condition I’d seriously consider it.

Buy the latest revision. The mileage is irrelevant. 2012 Vogue TDV8 in Aintree green over sand
