Both vehicles same mileage, about 60K. One is Black 07 SE the other is Grey 09 GS. Both have full service history. Both very similar condition

I took the older vehicle as it is a HSE with all the bits on, which were important for me, but each to their own. Yes I think service history is important and how well it has been looked after. |

Yep, the more things you have the more there is to go wrong and just like anything the older it is the more risk you are at of something going wrong. Like I say, go into it with your eyes open and horses for courses. |

Have they both had the same amount of owners ? Was either the vehicles demo cars ? If so I'd personally avoid the demo like the plague as they are driven hard ... MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

I agree. Has anyone used an AA check and are they any good? |

I had the choice of two cars when I bought mine, HSE and a newer GS. Similar milage both warranted from LR.
