I'm planning to upgrade to a used Scorpio N soon, and I'm seeking advice from those who've already taken the plunge.
I'm primarily interested in the Z8L diesel automatic variant. What are the key things to look for when inspecting a used Scorpio N? Are there any specific model years or variants to avoid?
Also, what's the expected depreciation on the Scorpio N? Any insights on resale value would be greatly appreciated.
I'm eager to hear your experiences and recommendations. 😎

I recently bought a used Scorpio N Z8L Diesel AT and couldn't be happier. The key things I looked for were overall condition, service history, and any modifications. Stick to genuine accessories if the car has any.
Depreciation on the Scorpio N seems to be holding up pretty well. However, the initial drop is steep, so going for a slightly older model can save you a good amount without compromising much on features.
Do a thorough inspection, including checking for any signs of accidents or repaint jobs. Also, test drive the car thoroughly to get a feel for the suspension and engine performance.

While it's a fantastic SUV, I'd suggest prioritizing the higher trims like Z6 or Z8L if you can afford it. They come with additional features and safety tech that are worth the extra cost.
Also, check for any recalls or service campaigns related to the specific model year you're considering. Mahindra has issued a few recalls, so it's better to be aware of them beforehand.

The key is to find a well-maintained car with a complete service history. Check for any signs of abuse, especially off-road damage. Also, pay attention to the condition of the tires, as they can reveal a lot about the car's usage.
Negotiation is key when buying a used car. Research the market price before making an offer. 🤔 😏

I'm in the market for a used Scorpio N as well. I've heard mixed reviews about the reliability of the initial batches. It might be worth considering a slightly newer model to avoid potential issues.
Also, check the condition of the upholstery and interiors. Look for any signs of wear and tear, especially on the driver's seat.
