Sometimes not everything is clear cut as it should be, no servicing, but could of been missed off system and a private number plate previously can cause issues with its history record as I know from experience.
One thing I would pursue is the apparent documented warranty work done at other dealer, get a print off and see what problems it has already had.
Overall think most would agree buying a "cheap" Landrover is not the way to go D4 Landmark MY16 Santorini Black THE LAST

Not everything is sinister. My van didn’t get the first stamp in the book. Don’t have the receipt either. Just my word for it. But I know it was done.
If it weren’t for the crank issue and Land Rovers bad rep it might not be so bad. The car it’s self is probably fine and has been well looked after.
Doesn’t mean you should buy it but just saying.

Agreed, absence of evidence is not evidence of absence as Palaeontologists like to say. However, it’s still one hellova risk.
