2005 Range Rover Sport V8 Supercharged L320

Highlights

• Advisory-free MOT valid until July 2027
• Desirable petrol V8 supercharged model
• The vendor reports a strong MOT record, having passed all tests since new bar one
• Previously kept within one family before being purchased from a Land Rover mechanic
• Generously equipped with heated/ electric seats, climate control, satellite navigation, adaptive cruise control, and a premium Harman/ Kardon sound system.

The Appeal

Much like its larger L322 sibling, the range-topping L320 Range Rover Sport was powered by a supercharged V8, in this case displacing 4.2 litres and good for around 390 bhp. These supercharged variants are increasingly sought after, offering a level of power and refinement that makes them stand out among their contemporaries.

This dark red example has enjoyed a notably sheltered ownership history. The vendor reports it was kept within one family before being acquired by a Land Rover mechanic, from whom the current owner purchased it privately. It has an extensive service history and a strong MOT record, having passed every test since new with just one exception. With an advisory-free MOT running until July 2027, the vehicle is said to drive well, with a strong engine, smooth gearbox, and properly functioning air suspension. The vendor describes the bodywork as being in good condition and the leather interior as clean and well maintained. Generously equipped with heated electric seats, climate control, satellite navigation, cruise control, and a premium sound system, this is a well-specified example that appears ready to be driven and enjoyed.
