All Approved Used Land Rovers come with a history check, which guarantees cars haven't been stolen, written off and don't have any outstanding finance.

Land Rover is another famous British brand that has survived difficult times over the years, but is now succeeding with the help of outside investment. Now owned by the Jaguar Land Rover group and by parent company Tata Motors, Land Rover began in the late 1940s building simple but highly-effective off-road vehicles. The company changed direction in 1970 with the launch of the original Range Rover, which saw a move upmarket and an expansion of the model range. Today Land Rover has a wide range of SUVs with a premium appeal, in particular, its Range Rover models which offer a luxurious experience.
As a premium SUV brand the Land Rover range leans towards the upper ends of the pricing scale, although all models offer a wide range of capability. The Land Rover Discovery Sport is a five- or seven-seat SUV with great practicality and a positive driving experience, while the similarly-priced Range Rover Evoque delivers eye-catching style with excellent all-round road manners. The Land Rover Discovery is a super-versatile large SUV, the Range Rover Sport provides a strong image alongside impressive driving dynamics, with the more expensive Velar adding a stylish design to the mix. The Land Rover Defender is a rugged but luxurious off-roader, while crowning the range is the Range Rover, which remains the luxury SUV to beat.
Land Rover did not exist as a brand until 1970; before that the Series I was called a Land Rover and sold under the Rover Company branding.

Land Rover is not a brand famed for its reliability so, if you're heart's set on one, but you also champion reliability, choose a simpler model like the Discovery Sport which won't suffer from the same complex issues you'll find in models from higher up the range like the Range Rover.
Land Rovers – particularly top-of-the-range models – are expensive to fix because they are complex cars made from expensive parts. Labour can also be pretty pricy if the problem is buried deep in the car.
Land Rover's warranty covers all electric and mechanical problems as well as consequential damages.
Approved Used car schemes are one of the best ways of getting your hands on a second hand car without having to worry about condition and mechanical reliability.
