ive got the v8 2011 and its awesome for the price range only had about a half dozen throughout my lifetime only had 2 v8s and love them
cant go wrong at all....

The other option is a LR3, i bet they have those on your price range

My buddie picked up a 2003 Range Rover for around 13K at the auction, it does have over 100k, but for the money and being able to drive the newer body style for that cheap was a pretty good deal. From my understand BMW was making the engines at that time, using the 4.6 motor out of the X5 (Which is very solid). I have been driving it every chance I can. It already had small updates like the supercharged wheels, and updated tail lights. Like any European car my advice is to not be surprised if the service bill is expensive. The only bad maintenance feedback we found was the air-suspension. It seems to have problems in the early years, and cost upwards of 2 grand.

4.4 engine to be exact! Maintenance cost is the same as a BMW X5, so it's kinda expensive but not that bad! Plus, reliability is not that bad. It's reputations is far worse than the real truth! Basically 03-05 Range Rover is an updated BMW X5.
