Is 100,000 miles high for a Range Rover 3.0-litre diesel?

What is the average lifetime of a Range Rover 3.0 diesel in mileage? Would it be worth buying 1 with 100,000miles on the clock or would a 4.0 petrol be more suitable with an lpg conversion?

100,000 miles isn't excessive for this kind of car and engine. If you're only covering a low mileage, it could be a wise buy. More info here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/land-rover

LPG conversions can cause a lot of problems if they haven't been done properly.
