- Accompanied by a substantial history file
- MOT until May 2025
The Appeal
Unveiled with a high-octane street chase scene starring Daniel Craig as James Bond, the L494 was to be the second of JLR’s Range Rover ‘Sport’ models. Like its full-size L405 sibling, it featured an all-aluminium monocoque and earned its sporting credentials with innovative ‘Dynamic Response’ suspension, referring to its active anti-roll bars.
For fans of the Range Rover’s timeless style, commanding driving position, excellent off-road capability and high-end luxury, you should definitely consider the Sport model. The L405 is simply too big for many of us and the improved on-road dynamics of the L494 Sport make it the more sensible choice for most.
This 2014 example is the highly specified ‘Autobiography’ with the economical 3.0-litre AJD V6 diesel engine. We’re informed that it benefits from full service history, with LR main dealers and latterly independent specialists, and you’ll note that a wealth of paperwork accompanies the car. Recent major work includes the replacement of both turbochargers in July 2022.
With a long MOT, this Range Rover Sport is ready to go.
