Otherwise ask to see the V5 and then do you know which badges equal the twin turbos?

Would you not just ask the seller? (Or owner?)

Can't absolutely confirm it but I thought the single turbos had black grilles and twins had Titanium by default. They can of course be changed, but it might be a quick clue.

The twin turbos tend to leave other cars standing at the traffic lights >:D

The tri turbos can have titanium grilles too.

I asked because I was going to look at one at a land rover garage and they may not have known what they had. They were leaving it out for me to look at after closing time. It has the black grill and is a single turbo model. Thanks

Tbh it was other than a scuff on the front corner. Se model with sat nav, tow bar, leather, privacy, seven seats, Bluetooth and four new tyres. Not sure if anything else, do you get heated seats as standard on these? It's the first one that I,ve looked at, would normally go for a sport but this caught my eye.

Heated seats were extra.
I wanted an SE but with dynamic pack. You get the sports seats, suspension, etc that way but still get to have the alu running boards.

Ah no running boards
