[Deposit taken] FL2 2013 Manual GS +extras £7000
Hi,
Hopefully our new car arrives in Who knows when?,
which is when our FL2 will be released and For Sale
I bought it from a lady we know of, she ordered it new from our local L/R dealer and she lives about 5 miles away from us,
she had a 40 mile each way commute to work which reflects the miles and also that it was decent journeys and not short, stop, start trips, no kids and rarely even took a passenger.
it still has all the spec labels in the rear seat pocket.
All her servicing was by the same, supplying dealer and we have used a local garage
If you do an MOT gov check on the reg you can see the history,
when I bought it she agreed to put a fresh MOT on,
it failed on a ball joint which she had replaced for the pass and advised on the brake pads,
I replaced front and rear pads soon after getting it.
I have done maintenance work as needed and preventative such as fluids and Haldex
along with a couple of door lock actuators that started to play up
all fluids done along with gearbox fluid,
I had the Haldex full service and MOT done by a known local specialist in Oct 2020
Every thing works, aircon, heated front screen, stop/start after fitting a new AGM battery in Nov last year with a 4 year warranty.
I have full confidence in it, to the point that I sold our "main car" a couple of months ago as prices where so high rather than chancing the wait to p/ex in sept, so its currently our Main Car 8)
Future work planned/required
new MOT. Done
I would have the specialist do the MOT and the cam belt, water pump service (£450)
(I know it should be done at year 7 )
would also fit a pair of Yoko All Season tyres for the winter,
new Wranglers have just gone on the front and rears have 3mm,
bin them and put the Yokos on
Thats it just more maintenance
I am the 2nd owner and have had it longer than most cars I have owned
(retired 6 years ago and swapped car each 9-12 months till the FL2)
all books and details from new, 2 keys and many receipts
Extras over the GS spec, full leather with front Armrests, heated front seats, heated Front screen, F&R PDC's, towbar with twin sockets and its got DAB radio and Bluetooth but think they all have that.
Service history stamped in the book shows,
July 2013 new
May 2014 15447 service at L/R
March 2015 31739 service at L/R
Jan 2016 48101 service at L/R

July 2019 111017 service Indep (+front and rear pads)
Oct 2020 113907 service Indep (+ gearbox/front diff oil, ptu rear diff oil checked, tracking, Haldex full service)
The Main dealer also sent me a print out of their service work and advised they replaced F&R discs and pads at the 2017 service and that they had also replaced the clutch/flywheel assembly under warranty at 51000 in March 2016.
Miles now 119000ish
Looking for £7000 allowing for next service which you may want to do yourself (or not!) any questions ask away
