I ran into an acquaintance who just picked up an 04 RR, wanted to know what I thought it would cost to get the air ride working again. He'll probably be dumping it after our conversation.
Everything works on it (08 Range Rover Sport S/C), including the air suspension; I ran my diagnostic computer on it to check for compressor temps and line pressures, and wheel height sensor issues and the car has a clean bill of health where the engine, trans, suspension, and electronic systems are concerned. I have a set of outer tie-rods going in (seller included in the sale) and I replaced the sunroof seal myself after an impromptu shower at an automatic car wash, and that's it. It was a diamond in the rough; again, paid wholesale because Kijiji is full of crapbags and teenagers who just want to rev the engine.

An 04 RR is scarier because of the BMW 4.4L V8. And the later 5.0L V8 engines with their plastic timing chain guides are also prone to failure.
