I am looking for a used vehicle. I was looking for a SUV that has the potential to tow, not huge & bulky with a more rugged look (since all the new mid size SUVs look like mini-vans without sliding doors). It will be used to commute, some towing, short travel, but minor off-roading.
I saw a 2005 LR3 SE (v8) with about 145K miles. Its fully loaded with brand new air ride suspension system. Its in great condition and has had two 177 (or 171) point inspections. It drove like a dream, Ive never drove anything so smooth. I even drove a 2016 Sorento (dont ask) later that day and it just didn't compare.
This would be my only vehicle, my commute is short (7 miles) so I am not concerned about gas mileage but my concern is reliability and price. The best I believe he will do is $11K.
Is this worth the price? Am I taking a high risk on reliability at this age and amount of miles?
