Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
- You prefer a higher seating position: this SUV/crossover type may suit. Try getting in and out; the body shape alone does not prove extra seats or four-wheel drive.
- You would prefer less gear changing in traffic: the recorded automatic transmission may suit. Try how this exact gearbox behaves on a test drive.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 14 years old and 354,054 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
- You need servicing to fit a tight budget: Spanner estimates higher maintenance costs for this type. Get quotes for the exact engine and gearbox before committing.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
A 2012 Range Rover diesel automatic typically uses Land Rover's air suspension and an automatic transmission that must be serviced regularly; air compressor and suspension sphere/service costs are common and expensive. The diesel engines on these years are prone to DPF/EGR and turbo issues if used only for short urban trips, and replacement parts and labour from main dealers are readily available in Ireland but carry premium pricing.
- Air suspension: watch for sagging at rest, slow/failed height changes and repeated compressor operation (compressor replacement is costly).
- Automatic gearbox behaviour: test for smooth, consistent shifts and no judder or hesitation; check for transmission fluid leaks and that any gearbox service has been done.
- DPF/EGR/turbo signs: look for heavy smoke on start/acceleration, excessive soot around tailpipe and ask whether the DPF has been regenerated/serviced — avoid cars used mainly for short runs.
- Electrical and comfort kit: confirm all seat heaters, window regulators, central locking, sunroof and infotainment functions work (electrical faults are common and intermittent).
- Underbody and driveline leaks: inspect for oil leaks from transfer box/final drives, and check rear arches, sills and suspension mounting points for corrosion or previous repair.
