Be sure to check out Bear Valley
I just purchased my second RR. The first one a 99 was purchased at a local GM dealer in Bangor, Maine. Always wanted one and with little market up here in Maine, I got a great deal on it. That was three years ago. Loved it so much and really can't see the new body style both in the wallet or looks department. Anyway was looking for a nice low mileage 02 that I could keep for a long time. Did the ebay and AutoTrader.com things for a while, even checked out a couple at the local LR dealer (150 miles away). By chance I happened on the Bear Valley Land Rover site last month. What a great find. After doing a little research and a number or calls to Ken, I purchased a red 02 with 25k on it and 1.5 year left on the bumper to bumper. They paid the shipping to Bangor and the best part was offered me a good price on my 99. BTW, if in the market my old black 99 is currently on the site. It has 69k on it but I had a LR extended warranty and used it to keep in top shape. Who ever buys it will get a great beast.
I have purchased a number of cars in the past 50 or so years. Currently own the 02 RR, 01 Audi TT 225qr (purchased off AutoTrader) 95 Saab 900 se conv (purchased new from dealer, 90 Jag XJS conv (purchased off ebay) and a 99 Rialta also purchased off ebay. I can say that without a doubt BVLR is the best way to get a great deal on a super selection of LRs
Sorry for the long post, but I truely believe in these guys. The condition of my 02 and the way my transaction took place could not have been a more enjoyable experience.
